Serum Levels of Proinflammatory Lipid Mediators and Specialized Proresolving Molecules Are Increased in Patients With Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 and Correlate With Markers of the Adaptive Immune Response
JOURNAL OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES(2022)
摘要
Background Specialized proresolution molecules (SPMs) halt the transition to chronic pathogenic inflammation. We aimed to quantify serum levels of pro- and anti-inflammatory bioactive lipids in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) patients, and to identify potential relationships with innate responses and clinical outcome. Methods Serum from 50 hospital admitted inpatients (22 female, 28 male) with confirmed symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection and 94 age- and sex-matched controls collected prior to the pandemic (SARS-CoV-2 negative), were processed for quantification of bioactive lipids and anti-nucleocapsid and anti-spike quantitative binding assays. Results SARS-CoV-2 serum had significantly higher concentrations of omega-6-derived proinflammatory lipids and omega-6- and omega-3-derived SPMs, compared to the age- and sex-matched SARS-CoV-2-negative group, which were not markedly altered by age or sex. There were significant positive correlations between SPMs, proinflammatory bioactive lipids, and anti-spike antibody binding. Levels of some SPMs were significantly higher in patients with an anti-spike antibody value >0.5. Levels of linoleic acid and 5,6-dihydroxy-8Z,11Z,14Z-eicosatrienoic acid were significantly lower in SARS-CoV-2 patients who died. Conclusions SARS-CoV-2 infection was associated with increased levels of SPMs and other pro- and anti-inflammatory bioactive lipids, supporting the future investigation of the underlying enzymatic pathways, which may inform the development of novel treatments. Serum levels of pro- and anti-inflammatory lipid mediators were increased in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) hospitalized patients compared with age- and sex-matched SARS-CoV-2-negative controls; some lipid mediators were significantly correlated with anti-spike and anti-nucleocapsid binding, measures of adaptive immune response.
