Thanks to new genetic association studies additional risk factors are now being discovered. Using data from a recent genome- wide associations from the Genetics of Mortality in Critical Care (GenOMICC) consortium, we show that a haplotype at a region associated with requiring intensive care is inherited from Neandertals. It encodes proteins that activate enzymes that are important during infections with RNA viruses. As compared to the previously described Neandertal risk haplotype, this Neandertal haplotype is protective against severe COVID-19, is of more moderate effect, and is found at substantial frequencies in all regions of the world outside Africa. 1 bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.10.05.327197; this version posted October 9, 2020.

    Immunome Announces Creation of COVID-19 Advisory Board Advisory Board to help guide development and clinical testing of biosynthetic convalescent plasma as a potential COVID-19 treatment and prevention of disease September 16, 2020 07:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time EXTON, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Immunome, a biotechnology company harnessing the human B cell response to develop potentially first-in-class investigational therapeutics for oncology and infectious diseases, announced today the appointments of Michael Diamond, MD, PhD, Jeffrey Henderson, MD, PhD, Shmuel Shoham, MD, and Susan Weiss, PhD, to its newly created COVID-19 Advisory Board. Immunome was recently awarded up to $13.3M from the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to use its proprietary technology to develop a novel biosynthetic convalescent plasma (BCP), derived from COVID-19 super responders, as a new potential approach to combat the pandemic. Through this effort, Immunome intends to identify a combination of antibodies that are broadly active against the virus and enable multiple viral clearance mechanisms and to synthetically manufacture for non- clinical and clinical development. “This new advisory board will provide fundamental guidance on our efforts to develop a biosynthetic convalescent plasma product candidate to treat COVID-19 patients,” said Purnanand Sarma, PhD, president and CEO of Immunome. “I am pleased to welcome these talented researchers and look forward to working together to leverage our proprietary technology to identify and develop antibodies that are potently active against this deadly virus.” Dr. Michael Diamond is the Herbert S. Gasser Professor of Medicine and a Professor of Molecular Microbiology and of Pathology and Immunology at the Washington University School of Medicine.

  • Bacterial Interactions with Cells of the Intestinal Mucosa: Toll- 1182 Like Receptors and Nod2
    Recent advances in basic science BACTERIAL INTERACTIONS WITH CELLS OF THE INTESTINAL MUCOSA: TOLL- 1182 LIKE RECEPTORS AND NOD2 ECario Gut: first published as on 11 July 2005. Downloaded from Gut 2005;54:1182–1193. doi: 10.1136/gut.2004.062794 SUMMARY Toll-like receptors (TLR) and NOD2 are emerging as key mediators of innate host defence in the intestinal mucosa, crucially involved in maintaining mucosal as well as commensal homeostasis. Recent observations suggest new (patho-) physiological mechanisms of how functional versus dysfunctional TLRx/NOD2 pathways may oppose or favour inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In Published online first 19 April 2005 health, TLRx signalling protects the intestinal epithelial barrier and confers commensal tolerance whereas NOD2 signalling exerts antimicrobial activity and prevents pathogenic invasion. In disease, aberrant TLRx and/or NOD2 signalling may stimulate diverse inflammatory responses leading to acute and chronic intestinal inflammation with many different clinical phenotypes. c INTRODUCTION The intestinal mucosa must rapidly recognise detrimental pathogenic threats to the lumen to initiate controlled immune responses but maintain hyporesponsiveness to omnipresent harmless commensals. Charles Janeway Jr first suggested that so-called pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) may play an essential role in allowing innate immune cells to discriminate between ‘‘self’’ http://gut.bmj.com/ and microbial ‘‘non-self’’ based on the recognition of broadly conserved molecular patterns.1 Toll- like receptors (TLRs) which comprise a class of transmembrane PRRs play a key role in microbial recognition, induction of antimicrobial genes, and the control of adaptive immune responses. NODs (NOD1 and NOD2) are a structurally distinct family of intracellular PRRs which presumably in the context of microbial invasion subserve similar functions (fig 1).
