    Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic required many speech-language pathologists (SLPs) to transition to teletherapy service delivery. This study was designed to explore the experiences and perceptions of SLPs who made this transition with children with disabilities who used aided augmentative and alternative communication (AAC). Semi-structured interviews were conducted virtually with 10 SLPs who provided regular teletherapy services to children who used AAC during but not before the pandemic. Interview transcripts were analyzed thematically using immersion, reduction, and constant comparison to understand SLP experiences and perceptions individually and across the group. Results reveal that despite the challenges faced transitioning to teletherapy, there were benefits. Furthermore, many of the participating SLPs developed successful strategies and solutions for the challenges they faced. Participants in this study highlighted the unique and important role that caregivers and parents played in the success of the teletherapy they provided. This study suggests that SLPs, caregivers, and children demonstrated resilience in the face of a large-scale, unforeseen change. SLPs consistently reported the ability to maintain continuity of care during a stressful transition period, while meeting the unique needs of the children who used AAC they served.

    Abstract The vascular barrier is heavily injured following SARS-CoV-2 infection and contributes enormously to life-threatening complications in COVID-19. This endothelial dysfunction is associated with the phlogistic phenomenon of cytokine storms, thrombotic complications, abnormal coagulation, hypoxemia, and multiple organ failure. The mechanisms surrounding COVID-19 associated endotheliitis have been widely attributed to ACE2-mediated pathways. However, integrins are emerging as possible receptor candidates for SARS-CoV-2, and their complex intracellular signaling events are essential for maintaining endothelial homeostasis. Here, we showed that the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 depends on its RGD motif to drive barrier dysregulation by hijacking integrin αVβ3, expressed on human endothelial cells. This triggers the redistribution and internalization of major junction protein VE-Cadherin which leads to the barrier disruption phenotype. Both extracellular and intracellular inhibitors of integrin αVβ3 prevented these effects, similarly to the RGD-cyclic peptide compound Cilengitide, which suggests that the spike protein-through its RGD motif-binds to αVβ3 and elicits vascular leakage events. These findings support integrins as an additional receptor for SARS-CoV-2, particularly as integrin engagement can elucidate many of the adverse endothelial dysfunction events that stem from COVID-19.

    Abstract Sepsis is a life-threatening condition caused by the response of the body to an infection, and has recently been regarded as a global health priority because of the lack of effective treatments available. Vascular endothelial cells have a crucial role in sepsis and are believed to be a major target of pathogens during the early stages of infection. Accumulating evidence suggests that common sepsis pathogens, including bacteria, fungi, and viruses, all contain a critical integrin recognition motif, Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD), in their major cell wall-exposed proteins that might act as ligands to crosslink to vascular endothelial cells, triggering systemic dysregulation resulting in sepsis. In this review, we discuss the potential of anti-integrin therapy in the treatment of sepsis and septic shock.

    Abstract The unprecedented global COVID-19 pandemic has prompted a desperate international effort to accelerate the development of anti-viral candidates. For unknown reasons, COVID-19 infections are associated with adverse cardiovascular complications, implicating that vascular endothelial cells are essential in viral propagation. The etiological pathogen, SARS-CoV-2, has a higher reproductive number and infection rate than its predecessors, indicating it possesses novel characteristics that infers enhanced transmissibility. A unique K403R spike protein substitution encodes an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif, introducing a potential role for RGD-binding host integrins. Integrin αVβ3 is widely expressed across the host, particularly in the endothelium, which acts as the final barrier before microbial entry into the bloodstream. This mutagenesis creates an additional binding site, which may be sufficient to increase SARS-CoV-2 pathogenicity. Here, we investigate how SARS-CoV-2 passes from the epithelium to endothelium, the effects of αVβ3 antagonist, Cilengitide, on viral adhesion, vasculature permeability and leakage, and also report on a simulated interaction between the viral and host protein in-silico.

    Abstract In addition to the ACE2 receptor, SARS-CoV-2 binds to integrins to gain host cell entry and trigger pro-inflammatory integrin-mediated signalling cascades. Integrins, therefore, are likely candidates for a dual-receptor mechanism with ACE2 to explain the increased infectivity seen in SARS-CoV-2 models. As integrins are primarily expressed in vasculature and persistent vasculopathy is seen in COVID-19, examining the role of endothelial integrin involvement is crucial in uncovering the pathophysiology of SARS-CoV-2.
