Studying multinational cohorts, we found that, in CLLs, NETs were significantly increased in serum and skin. There was geographic variability in the prevalence of increased NETs in MIS-C, in association with disease severity. MIS-C and CLL serum samples displayed decreased NET degradation ability, in association with C1q and G-actin or anti-NET antibodies, respectively, but not with genetic variants of DNases. In adult COVID-19, persistent elevations in NETs after disease diagnosis were detected but did not occur in asymptomatic infection. COVID-19-affected adults displayed significant prevalence of impaired NET degradation, in association with anti-DNase1L3, G-actin, and specific disease manifestations, but not with genetic variants of DNases. NETs were detected in many organs of adult patients who died from COVID-19 complications. Infection with the Omicron variant was associated with decreased NET levels when compared with other SARS-CoV-2 strains. These data support a role for NETs in the pathogenesis and severity of COVID-19 in pediatric and adult patients.Publication Multiomics dissection of human RAG deficiency revealsdistinctive patterns of immune dysregulation but acommon inflammatory signature(2025) Bosticardo, Marita; Dobbs, Kerry; Delmonte, Ottavia; Martins, Andrew; Pala, Francesca; Kawai, Tomoki; Kenney, Heather; Magro, Gloria; Rosen, Lindsey; Yamazaki, Yasuhiro; Yu, Hsin-Hui; Calzoni, Enrica; Lee, Yu Nee; Liu, Can; Stoddard, Jennifer; Niemela, Julie; Fink, Danielle; Castagnoli, Riccardo; Ramba, Meredith; Cheng, Aristine; Riley, Deanna; Oikonomou, Vasileios; Shaw, Elana; Belaid, Brahim; Keles, Sevgi; Al- Herz, Waleed; Cancrin, Caterina; Cifald, Cristina; Baris, Safa; Sharapova, Svetlana; Schuetz, Catharina; Gennery, Andrew; Freeman, Alexandra; Somech, Raz; Choo, Sharon; Giliani, Silvia; Güngör, Tayfun; Drozdov, Daniel; Meyt, Isabelle; Moshous, Despina; Neven, Benedicte; Abraham, Roshini; El- Marsafy, Aisha; Kanariou, Maria; King, Alejandra; Licciardi, Francesco; Cruz, Mario; Palma, Paolo; Poli Harlowe, María Cecilia; Adelo, Mehdi; Algeri, Mattia; Alroqi, Fayhan; Bastard, Paul; Bergerson, Jenna; Booth, Claire; Brett, Ana; Burns, Siobhan; Butt, Manish; Padem, Nurcicek; de la Morena, M.
