Filovirus Infection Disrupts Epithelial Barrier Function and Ion Transport in Human iPSC-Derived Gut Organoids

ABSTRACT: Gastrointestinal (GI) dysfunction, characterized by severe diarrhea and dehydration, is a central contributor to morbidity and mortality in filovirus disease in patients, yet the role of the epithelium in this clinical outcome remains poorly defined. Here, we employ induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived human intestinal (HIOs) and colonic organoids (HCOs) to model Ebola virus (EBOV) and Marburg virus (MARV) infection. These organoids are permissive to filovirus infection and support viral replication. Bulk RNA sequencing revealed distinct intestinal and colonic epithelial responses, including apical and junctional disruption and a delayed virus-specific induction of interferon-stimulated genes. Moreover, infection impaired adenylate cyclase signaling and CFTR-mediated ion transport, providing mechanistic insight into virus- induced secretory diarrhea. This platform recapitulates key features of human GI pathology in filoviral disease and serves as a powerful system to dissect host-pathogen interactions and identify therapeutic targets.

Jamaican fruit bats’ (Artibeus jamaicensis) competence for Ebola virus but not Marburg virus is driven by intrinsic differences in viral entry and IFN-I signaling antagonism

Project description:Ebola virus (EBOV) and Marburg virus (MARV) are zoonotic filoviruses that cause hemorrhagic fever in humans. Bat species in both Chiropteran suborders host filoviruses, suggesting that bats may have coevolved with this viral family. Correlative data implicate bats as natural EBOV hosts, but neither a full-length genome nor an EBOV isolate has been found in any bats sampled. Here, we modelled filovirus infection in the Jamaican fruit bat (JFB), Artibeus jamaicensis. Bats were inoculated with either EBOV or MARV through a combination of oral, intranasal, and subcutaneous routes. EBOV-infected bats supported systemic virus replication and shed infectious virus orally. In contrast, MARV replicated only transiently and was not shed. In vitro, JFB cells replicate EBOV more efficiently than MARV, and MARV infection induced innate antiviral responses that EBOV efficiently suppressed. Experiments using VSV pseudoparticles or replicating VSV expressing the EBOV or MARV glycoprotein demonstrated an advantage for EBOV entry and replication early, respectively, in JFB cells. Overall, this study describes filovirus species-specific phenotypes for both JFB and their cells.

Bat organoids reveal antiviral responses at epithelial surfaces

Project description:Bats can host viruses of pandemic concern without developing disease. The mechanisms underlying their exceptional resilience to viral infections are largely unresolved, necessitating the development of physiologically relevant and genetically tractable research models. Here, we developed respiratory and intestinal organoids that recapitulated the cellular diversity of the in vivo epithelium present in Rousettus aegyptiacus, the natural reservoir for the highly pathogenic Marburg virus (MARV). In contrast to human counterparts, bat organoids and mucosal tissue exhibited elevated constitutive expression of innate immune effectors, including type I interferon (IFNε) and IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs). Upon infection with diverse zoonotic viruses, including MARV, bat organoids strongly induced type I and III IFN responses, which conferred robust antiviral protection. Type III IFNλ-3 additionally displayed virus-independent self-amplification, acting as an ISG to enhance antiviral immunity. Our organoid platform reveals key features of bat epithelial antiviral immunity that may inform therapeutic strategies for viral disease resilience.

Long-term Expansion of Porcine Intestinal Organoids serves as an Ex Vivo Model for Swine Enteric Coronavirus infection

Project description:We designed a long-term culture system for porcine intestinal organoids from intestinal crypt or single Lgr5+ stem cells by combining previously defined insights in the growth requirements of intestinal epithelium of human and mouse. We showed that long-term cultured swine intestinal organoids were expanded in vitro more than six months at least and maintained the potential to differentiate into different types of cells. These organoids were successfully infected with porcine enteric coronavirus including porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) and transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV). RNA-seq analysis showed that robust induction of transcripts associated with antiviral signaling in response to enteric coronavrius infection, including a number of interferon-stimulated genes and cytokines. Moreover, gene set enrichment analysis indicated that PEDV infection could suppress immune response in organoids. This 3D intestinal organoid model offers a long-term, renewable resource for investigating porcine intestinal infections with a variety of pathogens.

Characterization of mesenchymal support required for in vivo engraftment and development of human PSC-derived organoids

Project description:Human gastrointestinal (GI) organoids derived from pluripotent stem cells have unique potential for studying organogenesis, physiology, and diseases. To this end, their transplantation into animal models to further their development into functional organs provides a valuable tool. However, organoids from different GI regions, for example, the esophagus or intestine, harbor different engraftment capabilities. Here, we developed a tissue-engineering approach and show that enhancing the mesenchyme-to-endoderm ratio enables reliable engraftment of GI organoids. However, endoderm/mesoderm recombinations reveal that only Human Intestinal Organoid (HIO) mesenchyme allows full development of GI epitheliums in vivo. Comparative mesenchyme analysis from esophageal, gastric, intestinal, and colonic organoids shows endothelial cell enrichment within the HIO mesenchyme, and we demonstrate by endothelial cell depletion or addition that these cells are required and sufficient for proper GI organoid development in vivo. Our findings highlight the optimal mesenchymal cellular composition needed to support GI organoid engraftment, tissue growth, and function.

Transcriptional Profiling of the Immune Response to Marburg Infection

Project description:Marburg virus is a genetically simple RNA virus that causes a severe hemorrhagic fever upon infection in humans and non-human primates. The mechanism of how this pathogenesis comes about is not well understood, but it is well accepted that pathogenesis is significantly driven by a hyperactive immune response. To better understand the overall response to Marburg virus challenge, we undertook a transcriptomic analysis of immune cells circulating in the blood following aerosol exposure of cynomolgus macaques to a lethal dose of Marburg virus. Using two-color microarrays, we analyzed the transcriptome of peripheral blood mononuclear cells that were collected throughout the course of infection from 1 to 9 days postexposure, representing the full course of the infection. The host response to aerosolized Marburg was evident at 1 day post-exposure. The response followed a 3-phase response that was led by a robust innate immune response. Analysis of cytokine transcripts that were overexpressed during infection indicated that previously unanalyzed cytokines are likely induced in response to exposure to Marburg virus, and further suggested that the immune response may favor a Th2 response that would hamper the development of an effective antiviral immune response. Late infection events included the upregulation of coagulation associated factors. These findings suggest new avenues for investigating the pathogenesis of Marburg virus infection and provide rich dataset of factors expressed throughout the course of infection that can be investigated as markers of infection and targets for therapy. RNA was isolated from a total of 30 PBMC samples from 15 cynomologus macaques infected with Marburg Virus. Samples were obtained at sequential timepoints post-infection, and included a pre-infection specimen from each animal. These samples were then processed and hybridized onto the Agilent 2-color arrays.

Label-free and targeted mass tandem (TMT-labelled) global proteomic analyses on mucus from the stomach, small and large intestine of a domestic and laboratory dogs

Project description:Gastrointestinal (GI) mucus is continuously secreted and lines the entire length of the GI tract. Essential for health, it keeps the noxious luminal content away from the epithelium and propels forward the digesta. The aim of our study was to characterize the composition and structures of mucus throughout the various GI segments in dog. Mucus from the stomach, small intestine (duodenum, jejunum, ileum), and large intestine (cecum, proximal and distal colon) was collected from 5 dogs. pH and water content of GI mucus and digesta were analyzed. Composition of all GI-tract segments from a domestic and a laboratory dog was determined by label-free global proteomics. A colonic-focussed composition analysis with TMT-labelled proteomics was used on jenunal and proximal and distal colonic mucus samples from 3 laboratory and 1 domestic dog. Finally, the composition of jejunal and colonic mucus samples of 3 laboratory and 1 domestic dog was evaluated with lipidomics and metabolomics. Structural properties were investigated using cryoSEM and rheology. The proteome was similar across the different GI segments. The highest abundant secreted gel-forming mucin in the gastric mucus was mucin 5AC, whether mucin 2 had highest abundance in the intestinal mucus. Lipid and metabolite abundance was generally higher in the jejunal mucus than the colonic mucus. In conclusion, the mucus is a highly viscous and hydrated material. The proteins, lipids and metabolites were similar throughout the GI tract, although abundances depended on location. These data provide an important baseline for future studies on human and canine intestinal diseases and the dog model in drug absorption.

Expression data from rhesus macaque colon, jejunum, and lung

Project description:The mucosa that lines the respiratory and gastrointestinal (GI) tracts is an important portal of entry for pathogens and provides the frontline of immune defense against HIV infection. Using the simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) rhesus macaque model, we have performed a comparative analysis of host gene expression in the lung and GI mucosa in response to SIV infection and antiretroviral therapy. Microarrays were used to characterize changes in gene expression in the colonic, jejunal, and pulmonary (lung) mucosa that occur during chronic SIV infection in the presence or absence of antiretroviral therapy.
