|
||
<div>
|
||
The admixture between modern humans and Neandertals has resulted in ~2% of the genomes of present-day non-Africans still being composed of Neandertal DNA. Association studies have shown that introgressed DNA still significantly influences skin and hair traits, immunity and behavioral phenotypes in people today. Several of the phenotype-associated archaic variants had links to regulatory effects as well. In general, analyses of allele-specific expression, regulatory sequence composition and cis-eQTL have demonstrated a significant contribution of this introgressed DNA to the transcriptomic landscape in people today. However, little is known about the impact of Neandertal DNA on trans-eQTLs</div></li>
|
||
<li>long-range regulatory effects that have been shown to explain ~20% of expression variation. Here, we used blood eQTL results from >30,000 individuals from eQTLGen Consortium. The cohort size allowed for a robust identification of trans-eQTLs and in addition enabled quantifying the role of transcription factors (TF) in mediating long-range regulatory effects. In our study we used this information to (i) annotate trans-eQTLs that are linked to Neandertal variants and (ii) predict long-range regulatory effects that are induced by Neandertal DNA by screening for the predicted target genes of TFs that are cis-eQTLs linked to Neandertal variants. We show that both trans-eQTL-associated Neandertal variants and those predicted to have long-range regulatory effects affect genes in genomic regions devoid of Neandertal DNA. In addition, both types of variants included candidates for local adaptation and show associations with autoimmune disorders, a severe Covid-19 phenotype, blood cell type composition and anthropometric measures. Our results suggest that the regulatory reach of Neandertal DNA goes beyond the 40% of genomic sequence that it still covers in present-day non-Africans and that via this mechanism Neandertal DNA additionally influences the phenotypic variation in people today.

<li><strong>Central Banking and Inequalities: Old Tropes and New Practices</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
This paper presents a critical analysis of the stance taken on inequality by two central banks since 2015: the Bank of Canada (BoC) and the Federal Reserve (Fed). The analysis is informed by a computer-assisted discourse analysis of how central bankers from the two institutions position themselves when it comes to issues of inequality. We observe that the position on inequality of the two central banks has changed in recent years and continues to do so. We argue that the stance on inequality taken by the BoC and the Fed suffers from a number of both inconsistencies and shortcomings. On the one hand, the BoC and the Fed claim that monetary policy instruments are too blunt to target specific sectors of the economy. On the other hand, with their response to COVID-19, they have demonstrated that such targeting is possible after all.

<li><strong>Inferring the COVID-19 infection fatality rate in the community-dwelling population: a simple Bayesian evidence synthesis of seroprevalence study data and imprecise mortality data</strong> -

<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">

Estimating the COVID-19 infection fatality rate (IFR) has proven to be particularly challenging –and rather controversial– due to the fact that both the data on deaths and the data on the number of individuals infected are subject to many different biases. We consider a Bayesian evidence synthesis approach which, while simple enough for researchers to understand and use, accounts for many important sources of uncertainty inherent in both the seroprevalence and mortality data. With the understanding that the results of one9s evidence synthesis analysis may be largely driven by which studies are included and which are excluded, we conduct two separate parallel analyses based on two lists of eligible studies obtained from two different research teams. The results from both analyses are rather similar. With the first analysis, we estimate the COVID-19 IFR to be 0.37% (95% credible interval of (0.19%, 0.61%)) for a typical population where 9% of the population is aged over 65 years and where the GDP (at purchasing-power parity (PPP)) per capita is $17.8k (the approximate worldwide average). With the second analysis, we obtain 0.37% (95% credible interval of (0.22%, 0.55%)). Our results suggest that, as one might expect, lower IFRs are associated with younger populations (and may also be associated with wealthier populations). For a typical population with the age and wealth of the United States we estimate an IFR of 0.61% and 0.59%; and for a typical population with the age and wealth of the European Union, we obtain IFR estimates of 0.90% and 0.62%.

<li><strong>Discovery of Potent Triple Inhibitors of Both SARS-CoV-2 Proteases and Human Cathepsin L</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
There are currently no FDA approved inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 viral proteases with specific treatment for post- exposure of SARS-CoV-2. Here, we discovered inhibitors containing thiuram disulfide or dithiobis-(thioformate) tested against three key proteases in SARS CoV-2 replication including SARS CoV-2 Main Protease (Mpro), SARS CoV-2 Papain Like Protease (PLpro), and human cathepsin L. The use of thiuram disulfide and dithiobis-(thioformate) covalent inhibitor warheads was inspired by disulfiram, a currently prescribed drug commonly used to treat chronic alcoholism that at the present time is in Phase 2 clinical trials against SARS-CoV-2. At the maximal allowed dose, disulfiram is associated with adverse effects. Our goal was to find more potent inhibitors that target both viral proteases and one essential human protease to reduce the dosage and minimize the adverse effects associated with these agents. We found that compounds coded as RI175, JX 06, and RI172 are the most potent inhibitors from an enzymatic assay against SARS-CoV-2 Mpro, SARS-CoV-2 PLpro, and human cathepsin L with IC50s of 330, 250 nM, and 190 nM about 4.5, 17, and 11.5-fold more potent than disulfiram, respectively. The identified protease inhibitors in this series were also tested against SARS CoV-2 in a cell-based and toxicity assay and were shown to have similar or greater antiviral effect than disulfiram. The identified triple protease inhibitors and their derivatives are promising candidates for treatment of the Covid-19 virus and related variants.

<li><strong>Oral Lisinopril Raises Tissue Levels of ACE2, the SARS-CoV-2 Receptor, in Healthy Male and Female Mice</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is the established cellular receptor for SARS-CoV-2. However, it is unclear whether ACE1 inhibitors (e.g., lisinopril) or angiotensin receptor blockers (e.g., losartan) alter tissue ACE2 expression. This study sought to determine whether lisinopril or losartan, as monotherapies or in combination, change tissue levels of ACE2 in healthy male and female mice. Mice were treated for 21 days with drinking water containing lisinopril (10 mg/kg/day), losartan (10 mg/kg/day), or both. A control group was given water without drug. ACE2 protein index, the ratio of ACE2 protein to total protein, was determined on tissues from the small intestine, lung, kidney, and brain. Oral lisinopril increased ACE2 protein index across all tissues (p < 0.0001 vs vehicle control). In contrast, the combination of lisinopril plus losartan did not increase ACE2 levels in any tissue (p = 0.89 vs vehicle control), and even decreased tissue expression of the Ace2 gene compared to controls (p = 0.0004). In a second cohort evaluated twenty-one days after cessation of drug treatment, the group previously treated with lisinopril had higher ACE2 than the group previously treated with vehicle control (p = 0.02). ACE2 protein index differed across tissues (p < 0.0001). Across both cohorts, plasma ACE2 did not correlate with ACE2 protein index in any tissue; however, a sex difference was observed: kidney ACE2 levels were higher in males than females (p < 0.0001). These results demonstrate that oral lisinopril increases ACE2, the cellular receptor for SARS-CoV-2, in tissues that are relevant to the transmission and pathogenesis of COVID-19. Remarkably, the addition of losartan prevented lisinopril- induced increases in ACE2 across tissues. These results suggest that ACE inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers interact to determine tissue levels of ACE2.

<li><strong>Post-entry, spike-dependent replication advantage of B.1.1.7 and B.1.617.2 over B.1 SARS-CoV-2 in an ACE2-deficient human lung cell line</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
Epidemiological data demonstrate that B.1.1.7, and even more, B.1.617.2 SARS-CoV-2 are more transmissible and infections are associated with a higher mortality than B.1 virus infection. Intrinsic properties underlying their enhanced spread in the human population remain unknown. B.1.1.7 virus isolates displayed inferior or equivalent spread in most cell lines and primary cells compared to B.1 SARS-CoV-2, and were outcompeted by the latter. Lower infectivity and delayed entry kinetics of B.1.1.7 viruses were accompanied by inefficient proteolytic processing of spike. B.1.1.7 viruses failed to escape from neutralizing antibodies, but slightly dampened induction of innate immunity. The lung cell line NCI-H1299 supported 24- and 595-fold increased growth of B.1.1.7 and B.1.617.2 viruses, respectively, in the absence of detectable ACE2 expression and in a spike-determined fashion. Superior spread in ACE2-deficient NCI-H1299 cells suggests that variants of concern employ a distinct set of cellular cofactors that may be unavailable in standard cell culture lines.

<li><strong>An intranasally administrated SARS-CoV-2 beta variant subunit booster vaccine prevents beta variant viral replication in rhesus macaques</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
Emerging of SARS-CoV-2 variants and waning of vaccine/infection-induced immunity poses threats to curbing the COVID-19 pandemic. An effective, safe, and convenient booster vaccine will be needed. We hypothesized that a variant- modified mucosal booster vaccine might induce local immunity to prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection at the port of entry. The beta-variant is hardest to cross-neutralize. Herein we assessed the protective efficacy of an intranasal booster composed of beta variant-spike protein S1 with IL-15 and TLR agonists in previously immunized macaques. The macaques were first vaccinated with Wuhan strain S1 with the same adjuvant. One year later, negligibly detectable SARS- CoV-2-specific antibody remained. Nevertheless, the booster induced vigorous humoral immunity including serum- and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL)-IgG, secretory nasal- and BAL-IgA, and neutralizing antibody against the original strain and/or beta variant. Beta-variant S1-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses were also elicited in PBMC and BAL. Following SARS-CoV-2 beta variant challenge, the vaccinated group demonstrated significant protection against viral replication in the upper and lower respiratory tracts, with almost full protection in the nasal cavity. The fact that one intranasal beta-variant booster administrated one year after the first vaccination provoked protective immunity against beta variant infections may inform future SARS-CoV-2 booster design and administration timing.

<li><strong>Transcriptome data from human nasal epithelial cells infected by H3N2 influenza virus indicate early unbalanced ROS/RNA levels, temporarily increased aerobic fermentation linked to enhanced α-tubulin and rapid energy-dependent IRF9-marked immunization</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
Background: Unbalanced ROS/RNS levels that connect to increased aerobic fermentation, which links to alpha-tubulin- based cell restructuration and cell cycle control, was identified as major complex trait for early de novo programming (CoV-MAC-TED) for SARS-CoV-2 infection using diverse cell systems. Recently, this trait was also detected in human nasal epithelial cells (NECs) infected by two SARS-CoV-2 variants, making CoV-MAC-TED tested in nasal cells promising for standardized identification of anti-SARS-CoV-2 targets. To explore the use of this marker/host cell system for targeting anti-viral strategies in general, testing of further virus types is required. Results: Transcriptome level profiles of H3N2 influenza-infected human NECs indicate ROS/RNS level changes and increased transcript accumulation of genes related to glycolysis, lactic fermentation and alpha-tubulin as early as 8 hours post infection. These changes linked to energy-dependent, IRF9-marked rapid immunization. Preliminary results point to the importance of host cell origins. Conclusion: The complex trait CoV-MAC-TED can identify early responses of SARS-CoV-2 and influenza H3N2 viruses. This indicates its appropriateness to search for common anti-viral targets in view of therapeutic design strategies. For standardization, human NECs can be used. The marker/cell system is also promising to identify differential early cell responses upon viral infections depending on individual cell origin.

Background: Early metabolic reorganization was only recently recognized as essentially integrated part of immunology. In this context, unbalanced ROS/RNS levels that connected to increased aerobic fermentation, which linked to alpha-tubulin-based cell restructuration and control of cell cycle progression, was identified as major complex trait for early de novo programming (CoV-MAC-TED) during SARS-CoV-2 infection. This trait was highlighted as critical target for developing early anti-viral/anti-SARS-CoV-2 strategies. To obtain this result, analyses had been performed on transcriptome data from diverse experimental cell systems. A call was released for wide data collection of the defined set of genes for transcriptome analyses, named ReprogVirus, which should be based on strictly standardized protocols and data entry into the ReprogVirus Platform. This platform is currently under development. However, so far an in vitro cell system from primary target cells for virus attacks that could ideally serve for standardizing data collection of early SARS-CoV-2 infection responses was not defined. Results: Here, we demonstrate transcriptome level profiles of the most critical ReprogVirus gene sets for identifying CoV-MAC-TED in cultured human nasal epithelial cells. Our results</div></li>

Major stressors often challenge emotional well-being—increasing negative emotions and decreasing positive emotions. But how long do these emotional hits last? Prior theory and research contain conflicting views. Some research suggests that most individuals’ emotional well-being will return to, or even surpass, baseline levels relatively quickly. Others have challenged this view, arguing that this type of resilient response is uncommon. The present research provides a strong test of resilience theory by examining emotional trajectories over the first six months of the COVID-19 pandemic. In two pre-registered longitudinal studies (total N =1,147), we examined average emotional trajectories and predictors of individual differences in emotional trajectories across 13 waves of data from February through September</div></li>

We discuss theoretical implications of these findings that we hope will contribute to more nuanced approaches to studying, understanding, and improving resilience in response to major stressors.

Abstract Breakthrough COVID-19 may occur in fully vaccinated persons. In this cohort of 1395 persons (mean age, 54.3 years; 60% female; median body mass index, 30.7) who developed breakthrough COVID-19, there were 107 (7.7%) who required hospitalization by day 28. Hospitalization was significantly associated with the number of medical comorbidities. Anti-spike monoclonal antibody treatment was significantly associated with a lower risk of hospitalization (Odds Ratio: 0.227; 95% confidence interval, 0.128 - 0.403; p<0.001). The number needed to treat to prevent one hospitalization was 225 among the lowest-risk patient group compared to 4 among the groups with highest numbers of medical comorbidity.

<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
|
||
In populations with mixed vaccination status, testing programs focused on the unvaccinated have been proposed and enacted to mitigate the spread of SARS-CoV-2. While the benefits of universal SARS-CoV-2 screening are well established, it is unclear how the benefits of unvaccinated-only testing depend on population vaccination rate. Here, we introduce and analyze a model of SARS-CoV-2 transmission in which a variable fraction of the population is fully vaccinated and those who remain unvaccinated are proactively tested for infection, while varying transmission rates, vaccine performance parameters, and the degree of social mixing between vaccinated and unvaccinated populations. We find that unvaccinated testing programs are effective only when compliance is high and testing is frequent, and when vaccine coverage is low or moderate. However, in highly vaccinated populations, the impact of testing unvaccinated individuals decreases, and, by analyzing the possible modes of transmission within and between the unvaccinated and vaccinated populations, we show that the unvaccinated community ceases to be the dominant driver of transmission. By evaluating a wide range of scenarios, this work focuses on elucidating general principles, finding broadly that resources devoted to routine testing of the unvaccinated population could be reallocated to other needs when vaccine coverage is sufficiently high.

Background Vaccination is a promising strategy to protect vulnerable groups like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients against COVID-19 and associated severe outcomes. COVID-19 Vaccines clinical trials excluded IBD patients taking infliximab with azathioprine or 6-mercaptopurine (infliximab combination). Therefore, we sought to evaluate serologic responses to COVID-19 vaccination with the mRNA vaccine, BNT162b2 in IBD patients receiving infliximab combination therapy compared to healthy participants. Methods This is a multicenter prospective study. IBD patients were recruited at the time of attendance at infusion center between August 1st, 2021, and September 15th, 2021. Our primary outcome was the concentrations of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies 4-10 weeks after vaccination with two doses of BNT162b2 vaccine in IBD patients taking infliximab combination therapy (study group) compared to healthy participants group (control group). Both study and healthy participants groups were matched for age, sex and time-since-last-vaccine-dose using optimal pair matching method. Results In total 116 participants were recruited in the study, 58 patients in the study group and 58 in the control group. Median (IQR) IgG concentrations were lower in the study group [99 BAU/mL (40, 177)] than the control group [139 BAU/mL (120, 188)], following vaccination (p = 0.0032). Neutralizing antibodies was also lower in the study group compared to the control group [64% (23, 94) vs 91% (85, 94), p <0.001]. The median IgA levels in the study group was also significantly lower when compared to the control group [6 U/ml (3, 34) vs 13 U/ml (7, 30), p =0.0097]. In the study group, the percentage of patients who achieved positive IgG, neutralizing antibody and IgA levels were 81%, 75% and 40% respectively. In the control group, all participants (100%) had positive IgG and neutralizing antibody levels while 62% had positive IgA levels. Conclusion In patients with IBD receiving infliximab combination therapy, IgG, IgA and neutralizing antibody levels after BNT162b2 vaccine were lower compared to healthy participants. However, most patients treated with infliximab combination therapy seroconverted after two doses of the vaccine.

To characterize Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) transmission dynamics in each of the 15 most populous metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) in the United States (US) from January 2020 to September 2021, we extended a previously reported compartmental model accounting for effects of multiple distinct periods of social distancing by adding consideration of vaccination and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants Alpha (lineage B.1.1.7) and Delta (lineage B.1.617.2). For each MSA, we found region-specific parameterizations of the model using daily reports of new COVID-19 cases available from January 21, 2020 to August 24, 2021. In the process, we obtained estimates of the relative infectiousness of Alpha and Delta as well as their takeover times in each MSA. We find that 14-d ahead forecasts are reasonably accurate; these forecasts are being updated daily. Projections made on August 24, 2021 suggest that 5 of the 15 MSAs have already achieved herd immunity.

Background: People using maternity services in the United Kingdom (UK) have faced significant changes brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic and social distancing regulations. We focused on the experiences of pregnant women using UK maternity services during the pandemic and the impact of social distancing rules on their mental health and wellbeing. Methods: We conducted 23 qualitative semi-structured interviews from June 2020 to August 2021, with women from across the UK who experienced a pregnancy during the pandemic. Nineteen women in the study carried their pregnancy to term and four women experienced a miscarriage during the pandemic. Interviews took place remotely over video or telephone call, discussing topics such as mental health during pregnancy and use of UK maternity services. We used reflexive thematic analysis to analyse interview transcripts. Results: We generated six higher order themes: (1) Some pregnancy discomforts alleviated by social distancing measures, (2) The importance of relationships that support coping and adjustment, (3) Missed pregnancy and parenthood experiences, (4) The mental health consequences of birth partner and visitor restrictions, (5) Maternity services under pressure, and (6) Lack of connection with staff. Many participants felt a sense of loss over a pregnancy experience that differed so remarkably to what they had expected because of the pandemic. Supportive relationships were important to help cope with pregnancy and pandemic-related changes; but feelings of isolation were compounded for some participants because opportunities to build social connections through face-to-face parent groups were unavailable. Participants also described feeling alone due to restrictions on partners being present when accessing UK maternity services. Conclusions: Our findings highlight some of the changes that may have affected pregnant womens mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic. Reduced social support and being unable to have a partner or support person present during maternity service use were the greatest concerns reported by women in this study, as this absence removed a protective buffer in times of uncertainty and distress. This suggests that the availability of a birth partner or support person must be prioritised wherever possible to protect the mental health of women experiencing pregnancy and miscarriage in times of pandemics.
