ABSTRACT
After infection with SARS-CoV-2, the microbiome inside the human body changes dramatically. By re-annotating microbial sequences in bulk RNA-seq and scRNA-seq data of COVID-19 patients, we described the cellular microbial landscape of COVID-19 patients and identified characteristic microorganisms in various tissues. We found that Acinetobacter lwoffii was highly correlated with COVID-19 symptoms and might disrupt some pathways of patients by interacting with the host and other microbes, such as Klebsiella pneumoniae. We further identified characteristic microorganisms specific to cell type, indicating the enrichment preference of some microbes. We also revealed the co-infection of SARS-CoV-2 with hMPV, which may cause the development of COVID-19. Overall, we demonstrated that the presence of intracellular microorganisms in COVID-19 patients and the synergies between microorganisms were strongly correlated with disease progression, providing a theoretical basis for COVID-19 treatment in a certain extent.
