Summary: The study revealed significant differences in lymphocyte subsets and cytokine levels among COVID-19 patients with different disease severity and survival status. Higher levels of IL-6 and IL-10 were associated with severe illness and death, while Th17 percentages in peripheral blood were higher than healthy controls. IL-6 levels >106.44 pg/ml and CD8+ T cell counts <150 cells/mu l were found to be predictors of mortality.

Aging in COVID-19: Vulnerability, immunity and intervention

Yiyin Chen et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic originating from Wuhan in December 2019 has had far-reaching health and socioeconomic impacts worldwide. The disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 is highly heterogeneous, with age, gender, and comorbidities playing key roles in disease severity and outcomes. Aging and dysregulation of immune function are thought to contribute to the increased vulnerability of older adults to severe COVID-19. Further research on immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection, particularly in different age groups, is crucial for understanding disease heterogeneity and developing effective vaccines.

Summary: SARS-CoV-2, the etiological agent of COVID-19 pandemic, shows higher infectivity and mortality compared to previous coronaviruses. Its aggressive nature stems from its ability to easily infect and spread through interaction with human ACE-2 receptor. The diverse patient responses highlight the importance of immune system function, with overactive responses potentially leading to severe cases. Developing therapies and vaccines to regulate immune response will be crucial in managing clinical outcomes and reducing transmission of the virus.

'Primed' Mesenchymal Stem Cells: a Potential Novel Therapeutic for COVID19 Patients

Syed Shadab Raza et al.

Summary: The COVID19 pandemic is designated a public health crisis by WHO and is impacting countries worldwide. Using 'Primed' Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) as a therapeutic alternative may help improve responses in COVID19 patients.

Pattern of circulating SARS-CoV-2-specific antibody-secreting and memory B-cell generation in patients with acute COVID-19

Maria Byazrova et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the generation of plasmablasts and RBD-specific memory B cells in patients during the acute phase of COVID-19. The activation and proliferation of Bmem cells were induced which led to the generation of plasmablast phenotypic cells and RBD-specific ASCs. Additionally, it was found that SARS-CoV-2-specific Bmem cells are generated during the acute phase of COVID-19, providing a basis for further studies on the longevity of SARS-CoV-2-specific B-cell memory.

Intrafamilial Exposure to SARS-CoV-2 Associated with Cellular Immune Response without Seroconversion, France

Floriane Gallais et al.

Summary: The study found that all confirmed COVID-19 patients had SARS-CoV-2 specific antibodies and T-cell responses lasting up to 102 days after symptom onset, while their contacts remained seronegative but 6 of them reported COVID-19 symptoms within a median of 7 days and 4 of them had positive SARS-CoV-2 specific T-cell responses lasting up to 93 days after infection.
