IL-9 exacerbates SARS-CoV2 infection and associated airway inflammation


ABSTRACT: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes coronavirus diseases 2019 (COVID-19) and broncho-alveolar inflammation (Merad and Martin, 2020). IL-9 induces airway inflammation and bronchial hyper responsiveness in respiratory viral illnesses and allergic inflammation (Temann et al., 1998). However, the role of IL-9 is not yet identified in SARS-CoV2 infection. Here we show that IL-9 promotes SARS-CoV2 infection and airway inflammation in K18-hACE2 transgenic (ACE2.Tg) mice, as IL-9 blockade reduces SARS-CoV2 infection and suppressed airway inflammation. Foxo1 is essential for the induction of IL-9 in helper T (Th) cells (Malik et al., 2017). While ACE2.Tg mice with Foxo1-deficiency in CD4+ T cells were performed to be resistant to SARS-CoV2 infection associated with reduced IL-9 production, exogenous IL-9 made Foxo1-deficient mice susceptible to SARS-CoV2 infection with increased airway inflammation. Collectively, we identify a mechanistic insight of IL-9-mediated regulation of antiviral and inflammatory pathways in SARS-CoV2 infection, and unravel a principle for the development of host-directed therapeutics to mitigate disease severity.
