Anti-6Xsuggested: (Abcam Cat# ab18184, RRID:AB_444306)anti-Mouse IgGsuggested: NoneP4417-100TAB-Sigma-Aldrich) plus 1% Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) (Cat.A9647-500G-Sigma-Aldrich) and 0,02% NP-40 alternative (Cat.492016-100ML) for 1h at room temperature prior to overnight incubation at 4°C with primary antibody 1:100 (6xHisTag clone#HIS.H8 Cat.ab18184-Abcam or SARS-CoV-2 spike polyclonal antibody, GeneTex). 6xHisTagsuggested: NoneCells were collected and stained using primary RAGE antibody 1:100 (PA5-24787, Thermo Scientific) for FACS analysis. RAGEsuggested: (Thermo Fisher Scientific Cat# PA5-24787, RRID:AB_2542287)PA5-24787suggested: (Thermo Fisher Scientific Cat# PA5-24787, RRID:AB_2542287)Experimental Models: Cell Lines Sentences Resources 1 × 105 THP-1 cells were seeded on a 24-well plate in their culture medium. THP-1suggested: NoneTHP1 and Monocytes infection with SARS-CoV-2: THP1 cells were plated at 5×105 cell/ml in 48-well plates in 200 μl of RPMI-1640 supplemented with 1% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Euroclone). THP1suggested: NoneCell culture supernatants were collected 24, 48, 72 and 144 h post-infection and stored at – 80°C until the determination of the viral titers by a plaque-forming assay in Vero cells. Verosuggested: CLS Cat# 605372/p622_VERO, RRID:CVCL_0059)The following day, cells were pretreated or not with 2μM Azeliragon (Cat.S6415-Selleckchem) for 30 minutes before adding 100 ng/mL of Sars-CoV-2 spike protein (RBD, HisTag) (Cat. ZO3483-1-GenScript) or infected using Heat-inactivated SARS-CoV-2 (VR-1986HK, ATCC) at 4 TCID50/mL for 2h at 37°C 5%CO2. VR-1986HKsuggested: NoneSoftware and Algorithms Sentences Resources Sequencing: Different library types were pooled at different ratios based on their targeted reads per cell and the nanomolarity of the library pools was confirmed using the Agilent Bioanalyzer 2100. Agilent Bioanalyzersuggested: NoneSeparately for the two selected categories of disease severity (mild vs severe/critical), the pseudo-bulk counts were then fitted with a generalised linear model using the EdgeR package, to identify those genes characterised by a well-defined decreasing or increasing trend of the expression over the sample time-points. EdgeRsuggested: (edgeR, RRID:SCR_012802)Among these sets, the GO:0050786 genelist was then expanded using the Cytoscape ‘stringApp’ (81) in order to identify among the nearest neighbours with confidence score > 0.7 the ones showing the highest absolute FC values in Myeloid cells. Cytoscapesuggested: (Cytoscape, RRID:SCR_003032)The GSEA has been done with the clusterProfiler library (82, 83), using gene lists ranked by the FDR of the differential analysis and the sign of the logFC. GSEAsuggested: (SeqGSEA, RRID:SCR_005724)The gating strategy and the relative analysis were performed with FlowJo software. FlowJosuggested: (FlowJo, RRID:SCR_008520)Results from OddPub: Thank you for sharing your code and data.
