Long COVID (LC) involves a spectrum of chronic symptoms after acute severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection. Current hypotheses for the pathogenesis of LC include persistent virus, tissue damage, autoimmunity, endocrine insufficiency, immune dysfunction and complement activation. We performed immunological, virological, transcriptomic and proteomic analyses from a cohort of 142 individuals between 2020 and 2021, including uninfected controls (n = 35), acutely infected individuals (n = 54), convalescent controls (n = 24) and patients with LC (n = 28). The LC group was characterized by persistent immune activation and proinflammatory responses for more than 180 days after initial infection compared with convalescent controls, including upregulation of JAK-STAT, interleukin-6, complement, metabolism and T cell exhaustion pathways. Similar findings were observed in a second cohort enrolled between 2023 and 2024, including convalescent controls (n = 20) and patients with LC (n = 18). These data suggest that LC is characterized by persistent activation of chronic inflammatory pathways, suggesting new therapeutic targets and potential biomarkers of disease.

Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen-presenting cells. While plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs) are poor antigen-presenting cells at steady state, myeloid DCs (mDCs), which include DC1s, DC2s and DC3s, are specialized in T cell priming. To generate unbiased human DC atlases, we integrated DCs from 13 tumor tissues across 40 datasets to create a pDC + mDC-VERSE (DC-VERSE) and an mDC-VERSE single-cell RNA-sequencing compendium. We characterized DC subsets and 'states' across these tissues. Most studied tumors contained CD207+ DCs, a subset of CD1c+ DCs, whose expansion inversely correlated with tumor CD8+ resident memory T cells, T cell clonality and the survival of patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Similarly to CCR7+ mDCs (a common state of DC1s, DC2s and DC3s), we found that CD207+ DCs were a common state of DC2s and DC3s. Spatially resolved single-cell transcriptomic and immunohistofluorescence analyses of human carcinomas demonstrated that lymphocytes and most DCs were enriched within the tumor stroma, while CD207+ DCs were mostly embedded within tumor nests. These DC-VERSEs provide a robust resource available to the scientific community on DCs in health and pathology.

The anatomical source of infection is a major determinant of sepsis outcomes; however, how distinct sites shape immunity remains unclear. Here we applied multi-omic profiling, integrating single-cell transcriptomics, single-cell T cell receptor and B cell receptor sequencing, CITE-seq, bulk RNA sequencing and plasma proteomics, to analyze peripheral blood mononuclear cells and plasma from 281 adult and pediatric individuals with sepsis and controls. We identified an NR4A2+ central memory CD4+ T cell subset enriched in abdominal, pulmonary and skin sepsis, with features of exhaustion; genetic perturbations showed Nr4a2 loss improved survival, while overexpression worsened it. Proinflammatory CD8+ T, natural killer and natural killer T subsets expressing CCL4, CCL3 and tumor necrosis factor expanded in adult abdominal and pulmonary sepsis, while pediatric pulmonary sepsis featured proliferative CD14+ monocytes, findings validated in external single-cell cohorts and confirmed in 164 independent individuals. Plasma proteomics revealed shared mediators including interleukin-6 and EN-RAGE across anatomical sites and ages. Together, our findings delineate anatomical-specific and age-specific immune programs in sepsis, highlighting candidate targets for precision immunotherapy.
