Replication of Human Sapovirus in Human-Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Intestinal Epithelial Cells.

ABSTRACT: Sapoviruses, like noroviruses, are single-stranded positive-sense RNA viruses classified in the family Caliciviridae and are recognized as a causative pathogen of diarrhea in infants and the elderly. Like human norovirus, human sapovirus (HuSaV) has long been difficult to replicate in vitro. Recently, it has been reported that HuSaV can be replicated in vitro by using intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) derived from human tissues and cell lines derived from testicular and duodenal cancers. In this study, we report that multiple genotypes of HuSaV can sufficiently infect and replicate in human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived IECs. We also show that this HuSaV replication system can be used to investigate the conditions for inactivation of HuSaV by heat and alcohol, and the effects of virus neutralization of antisera obtained by immunization with vaccine antigens, under conditions closer to the living environment. The results of this study confirm that HuSaV can also infect and replicate in human normal IECs regardless of their origin and are expected to contribute to future virological studies.

Project description:Human sapoviruses (HuSaVs), like human noroviruses (HuNoV), belong to the Caliciviridae family and cause acute gastroenteritis in humans. Since their discovery in 1976, numerous attempts to grow HuSaVs in vitro were unsuccessful until 2020, when these viruses were reported to replicate in a duodenal cancer cell-derived line. Physiological cellular models allowing viral replication are essential to investigate HuSaV biology and replication mechanisms such as genetic susceptibility, restriction factors, and immune responses to infection. In this study, we demonstrate replication of two HuSaV strains in human intestinal enteroids (HIEs) known to support the replication of HuNoV and other human enteric viruses. HuSaVs replicated in differentiated HIEs originating from jejunum, duodenum and ileum, but not from the colon, and bile acids were required. Between 2h and 3 to 6 days postinfection, viral RNA levels increased up from 0.5 to 1.8 log10-fold. Importantly, HuSaVs were able to replicate in HIEs independent of their secretor status and histo-blood group antigen expression. The HIE model supports HuSaV replication and allows a better understanding of host-pathogen mechanisms such as cellular tropism and mechanisms of viral replication. IMPORTANCE Human sapoviruses (HuSaVs) are a frequent but overlooked cause of acute gastroenteritis, especially in children. Little is known about this pathogen, whose successful in vitro cultivation was reported only recently, in a cancer cell-derived line. Here, we assessed the replication of HuSaV in human intestinal enteroids (HIEs), which are nontransformed cultures originally derived from human intestinal stem cells that can be grown in vitro and are known to allow the replication of other enteric viruses. Successful infection of HIEs with two strains belonging to different genotypes of the virus allowed discovery that the tropism of these HuSaVs is restricted to the small intestine, does not occur in the colon, and replication requires bile acid but is independent of the expression of histo-blood group antigens. Thus, HIEs represent a physiologically relevant model to further investigate HuSaV biology and a suitable platform for the future development of vaccines and antivirals.
