ABSTRACT
Coronavirus-induced disease 19 (COVID-19) infects more than three hundred and sixty million patients worldwide, and people with severe symptoms frequently die of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Autopsy demonstrates the presence of thrombosis and microangiopathy in the small vessels and capillaries. Recent studies indicated that excessive neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) contributed to immunothrombosis, thereby leading to extensive intravascular coagulopathy and multiple organ dysfunction. Thus, understanding the mechanism of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-induced NET formation would be helpful to reduce thrombosis and prevent ARDS. It has been shown that sera from individuals with COVID-19 triggered NET release in vitro, and spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) inhibitor R406 inhibited NETosis caused by COVID-19 plasma. However, the serum components responsible for NET formation are still unknown. In this study, we found that virus-free extracellular vesicles (EVs) from COVID-19 patients (COVID-19 EVs) induced robust NET formation via Syk-coupled C-type lectin member 5A (CLEC5A). Blockade of CLEC5A inhibited COVID-19 EVs-induced NETosis, and simultaneous blockade of CLEC5A and TLR2 further suppressed SARS-CoV-2-induced NETosis in vitro. Moreover, thromboinflammation and lung fibrosis were attenuated dramatically in clec5a-/-/tlr2-/- mice. These results suggest that COVID-19 EVs play critical roles in SARS-CoV-2-induced immunothrombosis, and blockade of CLEC5A and TLR2 is a promising strategy to inhibit SARS-CoV-2-induced intravascular coagulopathy and reduce the risk of ARDS in COVID-19 patients.
