Abstract

We report the disparate clinical progression of a couple infected by SARS-CoV-2 based on their immune checkpoint (IC) levels and immune cell distribution in blood from admission to exitus in patient 1 and from admission to discharge and recovery in patient 2. A detailed clinical follow-up accompanied by a longitudinal analysis of immune phenotypes and IC levels is shown. The continuous increase in the soluble IC ligand galectin-9 (Gal-9) and the increment in T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-containing 3 (TIM-3) protein in T cells in patient 1 suggests an activation of the Gal-9/TIM-3 axis and, subsequently, a potential cell exhaustion in this patient that did not occur in patient 2. Our data indicate that the Gal-9/TIM-3 axis could be a potential target in this clinical setting, along with a patent effector memory T-cell reduction.

Galectin-9/TIM-3 轴在一对已婚夫妇 SARS-CoV-2 不同进展过程中的潜在作用:病例报告
我们报告了一对感染了 SARS-CoV-2 的夫妇从入院到出院(患者 1)以及从入院到出院和康复(患者 2)的不同临床进展情况,这些进展基于他们血液中的免疫检查点(IC)水平和免疫细胞分布。图中显示了详细的临床随访以及对免疫表型和 IC 水平的纵向分析。患者 1 中可溶性 IC 配体 galectin-9 (Gal-9) 的持续增加和 T 细胞中 T 细胞免疫球蛋白和含粘蛋白结构域的 3 (TIM-3) 蛋白的增加表明,Gal-9/TIM-3 轴被激活,随后该患者出现了潜在的细胞衰竭,而患者 2 却没有出现这种情况。我们的数据表明,在这种临床环境下,Gal-9/TIM-3 轴可能是一个潜在的靶点,同时专利效应记忆 T 细胞也会减少。
