An iTSC-derived placental model of SARS-CoV-2 infection reveals ACE2-dependent susceptibility in syncytiotrophoblasts

ABSTRACT: We have developed an in vitro model of SARS-CoV-2 infection of placental cell types using induced trophoblast stem cells (iTSCs). This model allowed us to show that STs but not EVTs are infected. Importantly, infected STs lack the expression of key differentiation genes, lack typically observed differentiated morphology and produce significantly lower human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) compared to non-infected controls. We also show that an anti-ACE2 antibody prevents SARS-CoV-2 infection and restores normal ST differentiation and function. We highlight the establishment of a platform to study SARS-CoV-2 infection in early placental cell types, which will facilitate investigation of antiviral therapy to protect the placenta during early pregnancy and development.

Zika virus impacts extracellular vesicle composition and cellular gene expression in macaque early gestation trophoblasts

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) infection at the maternal-placental interface is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes including fetal demise and pregnancy loss. To determine how infection impacts placental trophoblasts, we utilized rhesus macaque trophoblast stem cells (TSC) that can be differentiated into early gestation syncytiotrophoblasts (ST) and extravillous trophoblasts (EVT). TSCs and STs, but not EVTs, were highly permissive to productive infection with ZIKV strain DAK AR 41524. The impact of ZIKV on the cellular transcriptome showed that infection of TSCs and STs increased expression of immune related genes, including those involved in type I and type III interferon responses. ZIKV exposure altered extracellular vesicle (EV) protein, mRNA, and miRNA cargo, regardless of productive infection. These findings suggest that early gestation macaque TSCs and STs are permissive to ZIKV infection, and that EV analysis may provide a foundation for identifying non-invasive biomarkers of placental infection in a highly translational model.

Rhesus macaque early-gestation trophoblast cells are permissive to Zika virus infection and viral exposure altered extracellular vesicle cargo

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) infection of maternal and placental cells at the maternal-fetal interface is associated with a spectrum of adverse pregnancy outcomes including fetal demise and pregnancy loss. Trophoblast cell types that comprise the placenta include cytotrophoblasts, syncytiotrophoblasts (STs), and extravillous trophoblasts (EVTs). To determine which trophoblast cells are permissive to ZIKV and to understand how infection impacts cellular gene expression, we utilized a macaque in vitro trophoblast stem cell (TSC) model. TSCs were derived from primary cytotrophoblasts and represent a proliferative trophoblast that can be differentiated into STs and EVTs. TSCs and ST3Ds (STs grown in suspension) were highly permissive to infection with ZIKV strain DAK AR 41524, whereas EVTs maintained a level of resistance to productive infection. The impact of ZIKV on cellular gene expression was determined by transcriptomic and miRNAome analysis. Infection of TSCs and ST3Ds results in increased expression of immune related genes, including those in the type I and type III interferon response. ZIKV exposure impacts EV protein, mRNA, and miRNA cargo, regardless of productive infection. Altogether, these findings suggest TSCs and STs of the macaque are permissive to ZIKV infection and that EV analysis has the potential to identify ZIKV infection. These findings provide a foundation for further ZIKV study and allow for potential ZIKV infection biomarker identification in a highly translational model.

Absence of host innate immune responses in SARS-CoV-infected ferrets upon subsequent challenge

Project description:To further investigate the underlying mechanisms of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) pathogenesis and evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of potential drugs and vaccines it is necessary to use an animal model that is highly representative of the human condition in terms of respiratory anatomy, physiology and clinical sequelae. The ferret, Mustela putorius furo, supports SARS-CoV replication and displays many of the symptoms and pathological features seen in SARS-CoV-infected humans. We have recently established a SARS-CoV infection-challenge ferret platform for use in evaluating potential therapeutics to treat SARS. The main objective of the current study was to extend our previous results and identify early host immune responses upon infection and determine immune correlates of protection upon challenge with SARS-CoV in ferrets. Keywords: time course This study is a simple time course (58 day) examination of host responses in 35 SARS-CoV (TOR2) infected ferrets with the addition of a challenge inoculation of SARS CoV (TOR2) at day 29 post infection. Three mock-infected ferrets are included as negative controls. Due to the unavailability of ferret microarrays, Affymetrix Canine 2.0 oligonucleotide arrays were chosen following sequence analysis of our ferret cDNA library (~5000 clones) and demonstration of high levels of homology (>80%) between dog and ferret.

Effect of SARS-CoV-2 on the human placenta

Project description:SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy leads to an increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. To determine the host response of the human placenta to SARS-CoV-2 infection, we performed RNA-Seq on placentas from COVID-19+ and COVID-19- mothers, as well as placentas that presented with non-COVID related inflammatory pathologies. We found that placentas infected by SARS-CoV-2 at term show an induction of inflammatory genes, including a robust increase in chemokine and cytokine signaling. Furthermore, when SARS-CoV-2 is detected in the placenta, placenta cell marker identity genes are lost with a concomitant increase in macrophage gene expression. Furthermore, when infected ex vivo, a strong inflammatory response and cellular de-identification is similarly observed, along with an acute increase in cell death in response to viral infection. Our data describes the inflammatory responses that occur in the placenta after SARS-CoV-2 infection both acutely and long-term, and provides a comparison with other placental inflammatory pathologies.

The PDZ-binding motif of SARS-CoV envelope protein is a determinant of viral pathogenesis

Project description:A recombinant SARS-CoV lacking the envelope (E) protein is attenuated in vivo. Here we report that E protein PDZ-binding motif (PBM), a domain involved in protein-protein interactions, is a major virulence determinant in vivo. Elimination of SARS-CoV E protein PBM by using reverse genetics led to attenuated viruses (SARS-CoV-mutPBM) and to a reduction in the deleterious exacerbate immune response triggered during infection with the parental virus (SARS-CoV-wt). Cellular protein syntenin bound E protein PBM during SARS-CoV infection. Syntenin activates p38 MAPK leading to overexpression of inflammatory cytokines, and we have shown that active p38 MAPK was reduced in lungs of mice infected with SARS-CoVs lacking E protein PBM (SARS-CoV-mutPBM) as compared with the parental virus (SARS-CoV-wt), leading to a decreased expression of inflammatory cytokines and to viral attenuation. Therefore, E protein PBM is a virulence factor that activates pathogenic immune response most likely by using syntenin as a mediator of p38 MAPK induced inflammation. Three biological replicates were independently hybridized (one channel per slide) for each sample type (SARS-CoV-wt, SARS-CoV-mutPBM, Mock). Slides were Sure Print G3 Agilent 8x60K Mouse (G4852A-028005)

SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnancy is associated with robust inflammatory response at the maternal-fetal interface

Project description:Pregnant women appear to be at increased risk for severe outcomes associated with COVID-19, but the pathophysiology underlying this increased morbidity and its potential impact on the developing fetus is not well understood. In this study of pregnant women with and without COVID-19, we assessed viral and immune dynamics at the placenta during maternal SARS-CoV-2 infection. Amongst uninfected women, ACE2 was detected by immunohistochemistry in syncytiotrophoblast cells of the normal placenta during early pregnancy but was rarely seen in healthy placentas at full term. Term placentas from women infected with SARS-CoV-2, however, displayed a significant increase in ACE2 levels. Using immortalized cell lines and primary isolated placental cells, we determined the vulnerability of various placental cell types to direct infection by SARS-CoV-2 in vitro. Yet, despite the susceptibility of placental cells to SARS-CoV-2 infection, viral RNA was detected in the placentas of only a subset (∼13%) of women in this cohort. Through single cell transcriptomic analyses, we found that the maternal-fetal interface of SARS-CoV-2-infected women exhibited markers associated with pregnancy complications, such as preeclampsia, and robust immune responses, including increased activation of placental NK and T cells and increased expression of interferon-related genes. Overall, this study suggests that SARS-CoV-2 is associated with immune activation at the maternal-fetal interface even in the absence of detectable local viral invasion. While this likely represents a protective mechanism shielding the placenta from infection, inflammatory changes in the placenta may also contribute to poor pregnancy outcomes and thus warrant further investigation.
