Abstract | The longevity of COVID-19 as a global pandemic, and the devastating effects it has had on certain subsets of individuals thus far has highlighted the importance of identifying blood-based biomarkers associated with disease severity. We employed computational and transcriptome analyses of publicly available datasets from PBMCs from 126 patients with COVID-19 admitted to ICU (n = 50), COVID-19 not admitted to ICU (n = 50), non-COVID-19 admitted to ICU (n = 16) and non-COVID-19 not admitted to ICU (n = 10), and utilized the Gencode V33 assembly to analyze protein coding mRNA and long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) transcriptomes in the context of disease severity. Our data identified several aberrantly expressed mRNA and lncRNA based biomarkers associated with SARS-CoV-2 severity, which in turn significantly affected canonical, upstream, and disease functions in each group of patients. Immune, interferon, and antiviral responses were severely suppressed in COVID-19 patients admitted to ICU versus those who were not admitted to ICU. Our data suggests a possible therapeutic approach for severe COVID-19 through administration of interferon therapy. Delving further into these biomarkers, roles and their implications on the onset and disease severity of COVID-19 could play a crucial role in patient stratification and identifying varied therapeutic options with diverse clinical implications. |
