Monocyte CD169 expression as a biomarker in the early diagnosis of COVID-19

Abstract: We assessed the expression of the cell adhesion molecule Sialoadhesin (CD169), a type I interferon-inducible receptor, on monocytes (mCD169) in 53 adult patients admitted to the hospital during the COVID-19 outbreak for a suspicion of SARS-CoV-2 infection. mCD169 was strongly overexpressed in 30 out of 32 (93.7%) confirmed COVID-19 cases, compared to three out of 21 (14.3%) patients for whom the diagnosis of COVID-19 was finally ruled out. mCD169 was associated with the plasma interferon alpha level and thromb… Show more

“…CD169 is a sialoadhesin involved in pathogen uptake, which is quickly induced in a type I IFN dependent manner on the surface of monocytes upon Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection (Rempel et al , 2008; Farina et al , 2017). Consistent with our findings, CD169 has been reported on circulating monocytes in COVID-19 patients (Bedin et al , 2020; Carissimo et al , 2020), while type I IFNs have been shown to be a hallmark of SARS-CoV-2 infection and an impaired type I IFN response has been linked with severe disease (Hadjadj et al , 2020; Wilk et al , 2020).…”

“…Notably, IL-12p40 levels were inversely correlated with disease severity. Consistent with the observed increased levels of monocyte activation-associated biomarkers, and in agreement with recent reports (26,27), peripheral blood monocytes of COVID-19 patients exhibited extensive vacuolization (Supplementary Figure 5A), and the MFIs of CD169, and of CD63, CD11b and b558 were greater in peripheral blood CD14 + monocytes of COVID-19 patients (n = 2) relative to HV (Supplementary Figure 6).…”

“…Even if local tissue macrophages do not express ACE2 receptors and are not directly infected, they play a role in inflammatory cytokine responses to infected cells through surface, endosomal and cytosolic receptors and secretion of IL-1 family members [52] and antiviral interferons (IFNs). Monocytes, dendritic cells and tissue macrophages can bind virus through lectin-like receptors such as CD169 [53] , for transport to regional lymph nodes. Delivery of virus droplets to the lower respiratory tract leads to infection of ACE2+ alveolar epithelium and capillary endothelium.…”
