Risk of autoimmune diseases in patients with COVID-19: a retrospective cohort study

Renin Chang et al.

Summary: This retrospective cohort study reveals that there is a significant association between COVID-19 and the risk of autoimmune diseases. However, further research is needed to replicate these findings in an independent dataset and understand the underlying mechanisms.

Rheumatoid factor autoantibody repertoire profiling reveals distinct binding epitopes in health and autoimmunity

Nienke Oskam et al.

Summary: This study identified specific epitopes associated with rheumatoid arthritis and healthy individuals. The study also found that IgM-RFs have the ability to activate complement or inhibit IgG-mediated complement activation, depending on the epitopes they bind to. These results demonstrate the need to redefine 'RF' into pathological and physiological autoantibody subtypes.

Discriminating promiscuous from target-specific autoantibodies in COVID-19

Mikhail Lebedin et al.

Summary: Diverse autoantibodies in COVID-19 have unclear functional implications. ACE2 is one of the targets of autoantibodies. Elevated levels of sACE2 and anti-ACE2 IgG were observed in critically ill patients, but they were poorly correlated. IgGs recognizing ACE2, IFN alpha 2, and CD26 correlated strongly in severe COVID-19, with some showing polyreactivity. Promiscuous autoantibodies did not impair ACE2 and IFN alpha 2 activity, while specific anti-IFN alpha 2 IgG compromised cytokine function.

Transforming mutations in the development of pathogenic B cell clones and autoantibodies*

Joanne H. Reed

Summary: Autoimmune diseases are characterized by the presence of serum autoantibodies, which can be pathogenic and cause severe manifestations and organ injury. The development of these autoantibodies is driven by various genetic and environmental factors, but the factors behind the development of pathogenic autoantibodies are not well understood. Recent advancements in single-cell technology have allowed for the analysis of rare B cell clones producing pathogenic autoantibodies, revealing genetic events and mutations that disrupt antibody quality control mechanisms and decrease autoantibody solubility. Understanding the molecular characteristics and tolerance checkpoints involved in the formation of these pathogenic autoantibodies will improve prognostication, enabling early treatment to prevent organ damage and B cell malignancy.

Persistent Autoimmune Activation and Proinflammatory State in Post-Coronavirus Disease 2019 Syndrome

Yeny Acosta-Ampudia et al.

Summary: Post-COVID syndrome is characterized by the persistence of latent autoimmunity up to 11 months after recovery, accompanied by a persistent proinflammatory state and altered effector phenotype. The need to evaluate the role of immunomodulation in the treatment of PCS is suggested.

New-onset Seropositive Rheumatoid Arthritis Following COVID-19 Vaccination in a Patient with Seronegative Status

Haruka Yonezawa et al.

Summary: Although COVID-19 mRNA vaccines have been effective in reducing the severity of the disease, some patients may experience severe adverse reactions and newly onset autoimmune phenomena, such as rheumatoid arthritis. This report presents a case of new-onset seropositive rheumatoid arthritis following COVID-19 mRNA vaccination.

MixTwice: large-scale hypothesis testing for peptide arrays by variance mixing

Zihao Zheng et al.

Summary: Peptide microarrays are a powerful tool in immunoproteomics, but face challenges with high dimensionality and small sample sizes in experiments. The MixTwice tool addresses limitations in reproducibility and power of current methods by computing local FDR statistics and local false sign rate statistics, effectively estimating generative parameters and identifying non-null peptides. Numerical experiments demonstrate its accuracy and reproducibility in identifying meaningful peptide markers in different signal strengths.

The landscape of antibody binding in SARS-CoV-2 infection

Anna S. Heffron et al.

Summary: Research shows that SARS-CoV-2 infection triggers robust antibody responses throughout the proteome, with M protein exhibiting excellent diagnostic accuracy. Antibodies also bind to homologous peptide sequences in other known human coronaviruses, and illness severity correlates with increased reactivity to specific epitopes.

Detection of Anti-SARS-CoV-2-S2 IgG Is More Sensitive Than Anti-RBD IgG in Identifying Asymptomatic COVID-19 Patients

Baolin Liao et al.

Summary: Characterizing the serologic features of asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection is crucial for diagnostics and control. This study found that asymptomatic infections exhibit weaker overall antibody responses, primarily inducing IgG antibody responses. Anti-S2-IgG shows better sensitivity in identifying asymptomatic infections early after infection compared to anti-RBD-IgG.

Chen Xu et al.

Summary: The study found that 20.16% of COVID-19 patients tested positive for rheumatoid-associated autoantibodies, with IgM-RF predominantly present in critically ill patients and IgA-RF mainly present in mild patients. The antibodies peaked in the later phase of the disease and lasted for a longer time.
