Insights

A new database, COVID-ONE-hi, catalogs IgG/IgM immune responses and clinical data from COVID-19 patients. This resource aids in understanding variations in immune responses and clinical features related to SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Area of Science:

  • Immunology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) exhibits variable symptoms and mortality, influenced by host immune responses.
  • Humoral immunity is crucial for SARS-CoV-2 infection and recovery, yet differences in immune profiles among patients are not well understood.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish a comprehensive database (COVID-ONE-hi) integrating COVID-19-specific humoral immune responses (IgG/IgM) with detailed clinical parameters.
  • To provide a user-friendly platform with analysis tools for exploring immune responses and clinical features in COVID-19 patients.

Main Methods:

  • Collected 2360 serum samples from 783 COVID-19 patients.
  • Assessed IgG/IgM responses against 24 SARS-CoV-2 proteins and 199 spike protein peptides.
  • Integrated 96 clinical parameters and patient demographics into the database.

Main Results:

  • The COVID-ONE-hi database contains extensive data on IgG/IgM antibody profiles against SARS-CoV-2 antigens.
  • Clinical parameters and patient information are linked to immune response data, enabling detailed correlation analysis.
  • The database includes a dashboard and analysis pipeline for interactive data exploration and interpretation.

Conclusions:

  • COVID-ONE-hi provides a valuable resource for researchers investigating the complexities of humoral immunity in COVID-19.
  • Facilitates deeper understanding of the relationship between immune responses and clinical manifestations of SARS-CoV-2 infection.
  • The freely accessible database and analysis tools support further research into COVID-19 pathogenesis and patient stratification.
