This is one possible cause of long <span class=\"caps\">COVID<\/span>, but it will likely have other trigger causes as\u00a0well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Still, if eventually validated, the study could point toward future long <span class=\"caps\">COVID<\/span> treatments, including therapies already used for other autoimmune diseases, although the researchers stress that much more investigation is\u00a0needed.<\/p>\n<p>Iwasaki is also a professor of dermatology and of molecular, cellular, and developmental biology in Yale\u2019s Faculty of Arts and Sciences, a professor of epidemiology at Yale School of Public Health, and an investigator of the Howard Hughes Medical\u00a0Institute.<\/p>\n<p>Since long <span class=\"caps\">COVID<\/span> first emerged six years ago, researchers in Iwasaki\u2019s lab have been chipping away at the mysterious condition. Its causes have been difficult to pin down because symptoms vary widely from patient to patient. But the new findings provide some of the strongest evidence so far that autoimmunity may be one important\u00a0factor.<\/p>\n<p>For the study, the Yale team and collaborators \u2014 including a Mount Sinai Health System team led by study co-senior author David Putrino, a professor of rehabilitation and human performance and the Nash Family Director of the Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic Illness \u2014 focused specifically on autoantibodies, immune proteins that are known to mistakenly target the body\u2019s own tissues instead of viruses or\u00a0bacteria.<\/p>\n<p>The researchers discovered that many long <span class=\"caps\">COVID<\/span> patients had autoantibodies aimed at parts of the brain and nervous\u00a0system.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>These autoantibodies frequently targeted tissues involved in pain signaling, memory, balance, sensory processing, and autonomic nervous system control, they found, which could help explain long <span class=\"caps\">COVID<\/span> symptoms such as brain fog, dizziness, headaches, fatigue, burning pain, and\u00a0numbness.<\/p>\n<p>After analyzing blood samples from people with long <span class=\"caps\">COVID<\/span>, from healthy volunteers, and from people who had recovered from <span class=\"caps\">COVID<\/span> but had not developed lasting symptoms, the researchers purified antibodies from patients\u2019 blood and exposed them to human and mouse tissues. They found that antibodies from long <span class=\"caps\">COVID<\/span> patients reacted more strongly with certain brain regions and nerve tissues than antibodies from control\u00a0groups.<\/p>\n<p>The researchers then screened these blood samples against more than 21,000 human proteins to identify what the antibodies were targeting. Many of the targets, they found, were linked to neurons, nerve communication, inflammation, and hormone\u00a0signaling.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, they transferred antibodies from long <span class=\"caps\">COVID<\/span> patients into healthy mice. The researchers conducted various behavioral studies\u00a0working with a team led by study co-senior author Tamas Horvath, the Jean and David W. Wallace Professor of Comparative Medicine, professor of neuroscience and of obstetrics, gynecology, and reproductive sciences at <span class=\"caps\">YSM<\/span>.\u00a0They observed that the mice developed increased pain sensitivity, fatigue, impaired balance, and damage to small nerve\u00a0fibers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Working with Marc Schneeberger Pane, assistant professor in cellular and molecular physiology in Yale\u2019s Faculty of Arts and Sciences,the team found that mice also showed abnormal neuronal activation in brain regions involved in pain, fatigue, memory, and emotional\u00a0regulation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat was most fascinating about this work is that we were able to find antibodies that, when transferred to mice, caused the same type of symptoms that are reported by long <span class=\"caps\">COVID<\/span> patients,\u201d said study lead author\u00a0Keyla Santos Guedes de S\u00e1, a postdoctoral associate in immunobiology in Iwasaki\u2019s\u00a0lab.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Researchers will next examine how the damage is being\u00a0done.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow that we were able to identify a subgroup of patients whose condition might be driven by autoantibodies, we want to investigate the neurological and immunological mechanisms by which these autoantibodies are causing disease,\u201d said\u00a0S\u00e1.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The rise of long <span class=\"caps\">COVID<\/span> itself wasn\u2019t a surprise, Iwasaki\u00a0added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you dig into the literature, you see that every major pandemic is accompanied by a long-version, chronic illness that follows,\u201d she said. \u201cIt happens when a human population is exposed to a new pathogen \u2014 or sometimes not even a new pathogen but an existing one like <span class=\"caps\">EBV<\/span> [Epstein-Barr virus.] Many viral pathogens are capable of triggering these chronic diseases after\u00a0infection.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For researchers, discovering effective treatments is the end\u00a0goal.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re all \u2014 Keyla and I and everybody in our team \u2014 driven by the desire to help people with long <span class=\"caps\">COVID<\/span>,\u201d Iwasaki said. \u201cRight now, there is no approved treatment for these people, and they really need\u00a0help.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Other Yale researchers involved in the study included scientists from the Department of Immunobiology in <span class=\"caps\">YSM<\/span>, the Center for Infection and Immunity, the Department of Comparative Medicine, the Department of Cellular and Molecular Physiology, and the Department of Pathology.
