The Isolation and In vitro Differentiation of Primary Fetal Baboon Tracheal Epithelial Cells for the Study of SARS-CoV-2 Host-Virus Interactions

ABSTRACT: The mucociliary airway epithelium lines the human airways and is the primary site of host-environmental interactions in the lung. Following virus infection, airway epithelial cells initiate an innate immune response to suppress virus replication. Therefore, defining the virus-host interactions of the mucociliary airway epithelium is critical for understanding the mechanisms that regulate virus infection, including Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Non-human primates (NHP) are closely related to humans; and provide a model to study human disease. However, ethical considerations and high costs can restrict the use of in vivo NHP models. Therefore, there is a need to develop in vitro NHP models of human respiratory virus infection that would allow for rapidly characterizing virus tropism and suitability of specific NHP species to model human infection. Using the olive baboon (Papio anubis), we have developed methodologies for the isolation, in vitro expansion, cryopreservation, and mucociliary differentiation of primary fetal baboon tracheal epithelial cells (FBTECs). Furthermore, we demonstrate that in vitro differentiated FBTECs are permissive to SARS-CoV-2 infection and produce a potent host innate-immune response. In summary, we have developed an in vitro NHP model that provides a platform for the study of SARS-CoV-2 infection and other human respiratory viruses.

Bulk RNA Barcoding and sequencing (BRB-seq) of Mock, SARS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2 infected human airway epithelial cell cultures at 33°C and 37°C

Project description:For the assessment of host response dynamics to SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 infections in human airway epithelial cells at ambient temperature corresponding to the upper or lower respiratory tract. We performed a temporal transcriptome analysis on human airway epithelial cell (hAEC) cultures infected with SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2, as well as uninfected hAEC cultures, incubated either at 33°C or 37°C. hAEC cultures were harvested at 24, 48 72, 96 hpi and processed for Bulk RNA Barcoding and sequencing (BRB-seq), which allows a rapid and sensitive genome-wide transcriptomic analysis in a highly multiplexed manner. Transcriptome data was obtained from a total of 7 biological donors for pairwise comparisons of SARS-CoV or SARS-CoV-2 virus-infected to unexposed hAEC cultures at respective time points and temperatures.

Phosphoproteome of SARS-CoV-2 infected Human Nasal Epithelium

Project description:The nasal epithelium is the primary initial site of SARS-CoV-2 entry in the human body. Since much of the molecular detail defining coronavirus entry and replication was derived from non-nasal cell lines, it remains unclear how SARS-CoV-2 overcomes the physical nasal mucus and periciliary mucin layers to infect and spread through the nasal epithelium. Using air-liquid interface cultured primary nasal epithelial cells, we observed that SARS-CoV-2 attaches to motile cilia during the initial stage of infection. Depletion of cilia inhibited SARS-CoV-2, as well as respiratory syncytial virus and parainfluenza virus infection, suggesting a widely-used ciliary mechanism for respiratory viral entry. Using electron and immunofluorescence microscopy, we further observed that SARS-CoV-2 progeny virions attached to airway microvilli 24 hours post infection and triggered the formation of apically extended and highly branched microvilli that organize viral egress from the microvillar base back into the mucus layer, supporting a model of virus dispersion throughout airway tissue via mucociliary transport. Chemical perturbation of microvillus formation severely impaired viral egress and subsequent spread. Phosphoproteomic analyses indicate that virally-triggered microvillar branching is linked to the p21-activated kinase 1 and 4 (PAK1/4) signaling pathway and viral infection is impaired by PAK1/4 kinase inhibitors. Our work provides insight into the mechanisms by which SARS-CoV-2 and potentially many respiratory viruses penetrate the physical nasal epithelium barrier, a first line of defense against pathogens, thus revealing a new view of the motile cilia and microvilli as critical host factors required for viral entry and egress.

Direct exposure to SARS-CoV-2 and cigarette smoke increases infection severity and alters the stem cell-derived airway repair response

Project description:To study the effect of cigarette smoke exposure on Sars-Cov2 infection, we directly exposed mucociliary air-liquid interface (ALI) cultures derived from primary human nonsmoker airway basal stem cells (ABSCs) to short term cigarette smoke and infected them with live SARS-CoV-2. We set out to examine the underlying mechanisms governing the increased susceptibility of cigarette smoke exposed ALI cultures to SARS-CoV-2 infection by usingle cell profiling of the cultures, which showed that interferon response genes were induced in SARS-CoV-2 infected airway epithelial cells in ALI cultures but smoking exposure together with SARS-CoV-2 infection reduced the interferon response.

Cytokine stimulation systems approach demonstrates differences in innate and pro-inflammatory host responses between genetically distinct MERS-CoV isolates.

Project description:Background: The recent emergence of a novel coronavirus in the Middle East (designated MERS-CoV) is a reminder of the zoonotic potential of coronaviruses and the severe disease these etiologic agents can cause in humans. Clinical features of Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) include severe acute pneumonia and renal failure that is highly reminiscent of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) caused by SARS-CoV. The host response is a key component of highly pathogenic respiratory virus infection. Here, we computationally analyzed gene expression changes in a human airway epithelial cell line infected with two genetically distinct MERS-CoV strains obtained from human patients, MERS-CoV-EMC (designated EMC) and MERS-CoV-London (designated LoCoV). Results: Using topological techniques, such as persistence homology and filtered clustering, we characterized the host response system to the different MERS-CoVs, with LoCoV inducing early kinetic changes, between 3 and 12 hours post infection, compared to EMC. Robust transcriptional changes distinguished the two MERS-CoV strains predominantly at the late time points. Combining statistical analysis of infection and cytokine-stimulated treatment transcriptomics, we identified differential innate and pro-inflammatory responses between the two virus strains, including up-regulation of extracellular remodeling genes following LoCoV infection and differential pro-inflammatory responses between the two strains. Conclusions: These transcriptional differences may be the result of amino acid differences in viral proteins known to modulate innate immunity against MERS infection. Triplicate wells of Calu-3 2B4 cells were infected with Human Coronavirus EMC 2012 (HCoV-EMC) or time-matched mock infected. Cells were harvested at 0, 3, 7, 12, 18 and 24 hours post-infection (hpi), RNA extracted and transcriptomics analyzed by microarray.

Upper airway transcriptional profiling reveals a more robust innate and adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2 in children compared to adults

Project description:Unlike other respiratory viruses, SARS-CoV-2 disproportionately causes severe disease in older adults and only rarely in children. To investigate whether differences in the upper airway immune response could contribute to this disparity, we compared nasopharyngeal gene expression in 83 children (<19-years-old; 38 with SARS-CoV-2, 11 with other respiratory viruses, 34 with no virus) and 154 adults (>40-years-old; 45 with SARS-CoV-2, 28 with other respiratory viruses, 81 with no virus). Expression of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) was robustly activated in both children and adults with SARS-CoV-2 compared to the respective non-viral groups, with only relatively subtle distinctions. Children, however, demonstrated markedly greater upregulation of pathways related to B cell and T cell activation and proinflammatory cytokine signaling, including TNF, IFNγ, IL-2 and IL-4 production. Cell type deconvolution confirmed greater recruitment of B cells, and to a lesser degree macrophages, to the upper airway of children. Only children exhibited a decrease in proportions of ciliated cells, the primary target for SARS-CoV-2, upon infection with the virus. These findings demonstrate that children elicit a more robust innate and adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2 infection in the upper airway that likely contributes to their protection from severe disease in the lower airway.

A bipotential organoid culture of respiratory epithelium for modeling SARS-CoV-2 infection

Project description:The airways and the alveoli of the human respiratory tract are lined by two distinct types of epithelium. We previously established long-term expanding human lung epithelial organoids from lung tissues and developed a ‘proximal’ differentiation protocol to generate mucociliary airway organoids, yet the derivation of alveolar organoids from adult lung has remained a challenge. Here we defined a ‘distal’ differentiation approach to generate alveolar organoids from the same source that allows the establishment of airway organoids. Alveolar organoids are enriched for AT1 and AT2 cells and functionally simulate the alveolar epithelium. AT2 cells in lung organoids act as the progenitor cells from which alveolar organoids emerge. Moreover, we demonstrate productive SARS-CoV-2 infection of alveolar organoids. We further optimize 2-dimensional (2D) airway organoids. When differentiated under a slightly acidic pH, these 2D airway organoids sustain enhanced viral replication and better recapitulate the high infectivity of SARS-CoV-2. Moreover, the optimized 2D airway organoids can model IgG transcytosis across the airway epithelium. Collectively, we establish a bipotential organoid culture system that can reproducibly expand the entire human respiratory epithelium in vitro for modeling respiratory diseases, including COVID-19.

SARS-CoV-2 infection is effectively treated and prevented by EIDD-2801

Project description:All coronaviruses known to have recently emerged as human pathogens probably originated in bats1. Here we use a single experimental platform based on immunodeficient mice implanted with human lung tissue (hereafter, human lung-only mice (LoM)) to demonstrate the efficient in vivo replication of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV), Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), as well as two endogenous SARS-like bat coronaviruses that show potential for emergence as human pathogens. Virus replication in this model occurs in bona fide human lung tissue and does not require any type of adaptation of the virus or the host. Our results indicate that bats contain endogenous coronaviruses that are capable of direct transmission to humans. Our detailed analysis of in vivo infection with SARS-CoV-2 in human lung tissue from LoM showed a predominant infection of human lung epithelial cells, including type-2 pneumocytes that are present in alveoli and ciliated airway cells. Acute infection with SARS-CoV-2 was highly cytopathic and induced a robust and sustained type-I interferon and inflammatory cytokine and chemokine response. Finally, we evaluated a therapeutic and pre-exposure prophylaxis strategy for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Our results show that therapeutic and prophylactic administration of EIDD-2801?an oral broad-spectrum antiviral agent that is currently in phase II/III clinical trials?markedly inhibited SARS-CoV-2 replication in vivo, and thus has considerable potential for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19.

hPSC-derived Airway Organoids-based Screen Reveals the Role of HIF1/Glycolysis Axis in SARS-CoV-2 Infection [scRNA-seq]

Project description:SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing recently pandemic, primarily infects the respiratory tract. There is an urgent need to develop platforms using disease relevant human cells to dissect the molecular mechanism regulating SARS-CoV-2 infection and perform drug screen. Here, we derived airway organoids from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC-AO). The hPSC-AOs, particularly ciliated cells, express ACE2 and are permissive to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Using hPSC-AOs, we performed a high content screen and identified GW6471, which blocks SARS-CoV-2 infection. RNA-seq analysis suggested that GW6471 blocking SARS-CoV-2 infection by inhibiting HIF1α, which is further validated by chemotin, another HIF1α inhibitor. Furthermore, metabolic profiling identified that the downregulation of glycolysis upon GW6471 treatment, which is further validated by RNA-seq. Finally, xanthohumol, a prenylated flavonoid suppressing fatty acid and cholesterol biosynthesis, blocks SARS-CoV-2 infection. Together, we applied the high content screen, RNA-seq and metabolic profiling to define the key role of HIF1α-glycolysis axis in SARS-CoV-2 infection, which provides a target pathway for anti-viral drug development.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus envelope protein regulates cell stress responses and apoptosis

Project description:Severe acute respiratory syndrome virus (SARS-CoV) that lacks the envelope (E) gene (rSARS-CoV-ΔE) is attenuated in vivo [1,2]. To identify factors that contribute to rSARS-CoV-ΔE attenuation, gene expression in cells infected by SARS-CoV with or without E gene was compared. Twenty-five stress response genes were preferentially upregulated during infection in the absence of the E gene. In addition, genes involved in signal transduction, transcription, cell metabolism, immunoregulation, inflammation, apoptosis and cell cycle and differentiation were differentially regulated in cells infected with rSARS-CoV with or without the E gene. Administration of E protein in trans reduced the stress response in cells infected with rSARS-CoV-ΔE, with respiratory syncytial virus, or treated with drugs, such as tunicamycin and thapsigarcin that elicit cell stress by different mechanisms. In addition, SARS-CoV E protein down-regulated the signaling pathway inositol-requiring enzyme 1 (IRE-1) of the unfolded protein response, but not the PKR-like ER kinase (PERK) or activating transcription factor 6 (ATF-6) pathways, and reduced cell apoptosis. Overall, the activation of the IRE-1 pathway was not able to restore cell homeostasis, and apoptosis was induced probably as a meassure to protect the host by limiting virus production and dissemination. The expression of proinflammatory cytokines was reduced in rSARS-CoV-ΔE-infected cells compared to rSARS-CoV-infected cells, suggesting that the increase in stress responses and the reduction of inflammation in the absence of the E gene contributed to the attenuation of rSARS-CoV-ΔE. We used Affymetrix microarrays (Human Genome U133 plus 2.0) to compare global gene expression between SARS-CoV-infected, mock-infected and SARS-CoV-ΔE-infected cells. For ech type of sample three hybridizations were carried-out (independent biological replicates).
