Project description:mRNA vaccination of individuals with prior SARS-CoV-2 infection provides superior protection against breakthrough infections with variants of concern compared to vaccination in the absence of prior infection. However, the immune mechanisms by which this ‘hybrid immunity’ is generated and maintained are unknown. While genetic variation in spike glycoprotein effectively subverts neutralizing antibodies, spike-specific T cells are generally maintained against SARS-CoV-2 variants. Thus, we comprehensively profiled T cell responses against the S1 and S2 domains of spike glycoprotein in a cohort of SARS-CoV-2-naive or convalescent individuals who received two-dose mRNA vaccine series and were matched by age, sex, and vaccine type. Using flow cytometry, we observed that the overall functional breadth of CD4 T cells as well as polyfunctional Th1 responses were similar between the two groups. However, polyfunctional cytotoxic CD4 T cell responses against both S1 and S2 domains trended higher among convalescent subjects. Multi-modal single-cell RNA sequencing revealed diverse functional programs in spike-specific CD4 and CD8 T cells in both groups. However, convalescent individuals displayed enhanced cytotoxic and antiviral CD8 T cell responses to both S1 and S2 in the absence of cytokine production. Taken together, our data suggest that cytotoxic CD4 and CD8 T cells targeting spike glycoprotein may partially account for hybrid immunity and protection against breakthrough infections with SARS-CoV-2.

Project description:During severe systemic infections, also known as sepsis, excessive cytokines and reactive oxygen species lead to endothelial dysfunction. Glycoprotein nonmetastatic melanoma protein B (GPNMB) has been implicated in regulating cellular functions, particularly within the vasculature during inflammation, but its effect on infection-mediated endothelial injury remains unclear. Data obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) show that GPNMB expression is systemically reduced following an infectious challenge. Therefore, to investigate the role of GPNMB during infection-mediated endothelial inflammation, we utilized human microvascular endothelial cells (HMVECs) with or without GPNMB knockdown (siGPNMB) and exposed them to heat-killed Escherichia coli (HKEC), one of the most common pathogens associated with sepsis. Silencing GPNMB altered the expression of 1,556 genes via RNA sequencing, affecting cytoskeleton function and the response to stimuli. When assessing the endothelial monolayer under basal conditions, siGPNMB cells displayed higher transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER), consistent with RNA sequencing pathway analysis, but exposure to HKEC resulted in increased barrier dysfunction compared to controls. Furthermore, compared to controls, assessments of viability, proliferation, and migration were compromised in siGPNMB cells following HKEC exposure. Exposure to HKEC decreased the oxygen consumption rate in controls and increased the extracellular acidification rate, but neither were changed in siGPNMB cells, indicating impaired metabolic adaptation and further corroborating aspects of the RNA sequencing data. Our findings demonstrate that GPNMB reduction hinders the endothelial response to infectious stimuli, resulting in decreased metabolic fluxes and a dysfunctional endothelium during infectious challenges.

Project description:In the present study we sought to identify the naturally processed and presented immunopeptidome of the SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein from human antigen presenting cells. Monocyte-derived dendritic cells from a panel of healthy human subjects representing a majority of the HLA-DRB1 allele usage within the United States were treated with recombinant spike glycoprotein. A subset of donors was also selected to represent common alleles from the Asia- Pacific geography. HLA II associated peptides were identified by liquid chromatography and nanoelectrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry after immunoprecipitation.

Project description:Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), which, since 2019 in China, has rapidly become a worldwide pandemic. The aggressiveness and global spread were enhanced by the many SARS-CoV-2 variants that have been isolated up to now. These mutations affect mostly the viral glycoprotein Spike (S), the capsid protein mainly involved in the early stages of viral entry processes, through the recognition of specific receptors on the host cell surface. In particular, the subunit S1 of the Spike glycoprotein contains the Receptor Binding Domain (RBD) and it is responsible for the interaction with the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). Although ACE2 is the primary Spike host receptor currently studied, it has been demonstrated that SARS-CoV-2 is also able to infect cells expressing low levels of ACE2, indicating that the virus may have alternative receptors on the host cells. The identification of the alternative receptors can better elucidate the pathogenicity and the tropism of SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, we investigated the Spike S1 interactomes, starting from host membrane proteins of non-pulmonary cell lines, such as human kidney (HK-2), normal colon (NCM460D), and colorectal adenocarcinoma (Caco-2). We employed an affinity purification-mass spectrometry (AP-MS) to pull down, from the membrane protein extracts of all cell lines, the protein partners of the recombinant form of the Spike S1 domain. The purified interactors were identified by a shotgun proteomics approach. The lists of S1 potential interacting proteins were then clusterized according to cellular localization, biological processes, and pathways, highlighting new possible S1 intracellular functions, crucial not only for the entrance mechanisms but also for viral replication and propagation processes.

Project description:Human cardiac pericytes express the receptors for SARS-CoV-2 and contribute to microvascular dysfunction in COVID-19 patients. The SARS-CoV-2 capsid Spike protein seems to play a direct role in COVID-19 microangiopathy, but it is not known yet whether the Spike protein alone, without the infectious virus, can induce transcriptional alterations in pericytes. This study investigated the signalling pathways activated by the Spike protein in cultured human cardiac pericytes. We found that 309 RNA transcripts were significantly modulated in pericytes exposed to the Spike protein, with the upregulation of pathways linked to inflammation and viral infection.

Project description:The SARS-CoV-2 spike protein mediates attachment of the virus to host cell receptor and fusion between the virus and cell membrane. The S1 subunit of the spike glycoprotein (S1 protein) contains the angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor binding domain. The SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern contain mutations in the S1 subunit. The spike protein is the primary target of neutralizing antibodies generated following infection and constitutes the viral component of mRNA based COVID-19 vaccines. Therefore, in this work we assessed the effect of exposure (24 hours) of 10 nM SARS-CoV-2 recombinant S1 protein on physiologically relevant human bronchial (bro) and alveolar (alv) lung mucosa models cultured at air-liquid interface (ALI) (n=6/experimental group). Corresponding sham exposed samples served as control. The bro-ALI model was developed using primary bronchial epithelial cells and the alv-ALI model using representative type II pneumocytes. Exposure of S1 protein induced the surface expression of ACE2, toll like receptor (TLR) 2, and TLR4 in both bro-ALI and alv-ALI models. Transcript expression analysis identified 117 (bro-ALI) and 97 (alv-ALI) differentially regulated genes (p< 0.01). Pathway analysis revealed enriched terms as specific as COVID-19, interferon (IFN) signaling, influenza, Corona virus, anti-viral response in the bro-ALI. Secreted levels of Interleukin (IL) 4 and IL12 were significantly (p<0.05; non-parametric) increased whereas IL6 decreased in the bro-ALI. In case of alv-ALI, enriched terms involving p53, APRIL, tight junction, integrin kinase, IL1 signaling were identified. These terms are associated with lung fibrosis. Further, significantly (p<0.05; non-parametric) increased levels of secreted pro-inflammatory cytokines IFNγ, IL1ꞵ, IL2, IL4, IL6, IL8, IL10, IL12, IL13, and tumor necrosis factor alpha were detected in alv-ALI. Altered levels of these cytokines are also associated with lung fibrotic response. Taken together, we observed a typical anti-viral response in the bronchial model whereas a pro-fibrotic response in the alveolar model. Therefore the bro-ALI and alv-ALI models may serve as an easy and robust platform for assessing the pathogenicity of variants of concern at different lung regions.
