We analyzed patients who had type I IFN autoantibodies. They showed the most extreme phenotype. We even detected similar shift in signaling in young (ISGs) and adult hamsters (S100A genes) infected with COVID-19, suggesting that we discovered a general aging-induced concept.

Can single-cell omics enhance clinical studies?
Find out @CellCellPress 👀cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092… about the potential of single-cell omics for monitoring in vivo target engagement of immunomodulatory drugs and for patient stratification for precision medicine approaches.

Dexamethasone, a cheap and widely available drug, saved millions of lives during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Our teams @chariteBerlin @berlinnovation and @dzne_en have now decoded the mechanism underlying its life-saving benefit in severe COVID-19.

Biomarker, diagnostic studies and clinical trials
The #NKSG is conducting in-depth analysis of potential biomarkers and diagnostics for both #LongCovid and #MECFS.
In addition, 5 treatment trials are expected to conclude by the end of 2024. More trials are currently in planning.
