摘 要:Coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19),caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2)infection,has become a global public health *** patients who have recovered from COVID-19 subsequently test positive again for SARS-CoV-2 RNA after discharge from *** such retest-positive(RTP)patients become infected again is not *** this study,30 RTP patients,20 convalescent patients,and 20 healthy controls were enrolled for the analysis of immunological characteristics of their peripheral blood mononuclear *** found that absolute numbers of CD4^(+)T cells,CD8^(+)T cells,and natural killer cells were not substantially decreased in RTP patients,but the expression of activation markers on these cells was significantly *** percentage of granzyme B-producing T cells was also lower in RTP patients than in convalescent *** transcriptome sequencing,we demonstrated that high expression of inhibitor of differentiation 1(ID1)and low expression of interferon-induced transmembrane protein 10(IFITM10)were associated with insufficient activation of immune cells and the occurrence of *** findings provide insight into the impaired immune function associated with COVID-19 and the pathogenesis of RTP,which may contribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying RTP.
