Remdesivir has previously unknown anti-viral immunomodulatory properties through the Adenosine A2A Receptor pathway

ABSTRACT: The COVID-19 pandemic has unveiled an urgent need for new anti-virals to control emerging infectious diseases and potential future pandemics. Classic anti-virals are currently designed to directly interfere with pathogens. However, anti-virals are often insufficient to rapidly clear infections in the absence of an effective immune response. Immunotherapy could complement the use of anti-virals, however its application to infectious diseases remains largely unexplored. In this work, we found that the anti-viral drug remdesivir has previously unknown immunomodulatory properties which contribute to its therapeutic effect against SARS-CoV-2. These properties are due to remdesivir metabolite, GS-441524, acting as an Adenosine A2A Receptor antagonist, a function that is distinct from its intrinsic anti-viral activity. Our findings support a new rationale for the design of next-generation anti-viral agents with dual – immunomodulatory and intrinsic - anti-viral properties. These compounds could represent game-changing therapies to control emerging viral diseases and future pandemics.

Analysis on Replication and Transcription of SARS-CoV-2 and inhition effect of Remdesivir

Project description:SARS-CoV-2, a betacoronavirus with a positive-sense, single-stranded RNA genome, caused the COVID-19 pandemic with unprecedent health and socio-economic crisis. Although its general sense mRNA architecture was reported, that of its negative strand was unexplored. We combined poly(A)-mRNA and ribosomal RNA-depleted sequencing to delineate several fine features of both RNA strands. Together with the transcriptome data under the perturbation of anti-viral drug Remdesivir, this project opens new sights into SARS-CoV-2 replication mechanism and may facilitate the anti-viral drug design.

Elucidation of remdesivir cytotoxicity pathways through genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screening and transcriptomics

Project description:The adenosine analogue remdesivir has emerged as a front-line antiviral treatment for SARS-CoV-2, with preliminary evidence that it reduces the duration and severity of illness. As clinical trials are ongoing, the full side effect profile of remdesivir is not yet known. Prior clinical studies have identified adverse events, and remdesivir has been shown to inhibit mitochondrial RNA polymerase in biochemical experiments, yet little is known about the specific genetic pathways involved in cellular remdesivir metabolism and cytotoxicity. Through genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screening (data not provided here) and RNA sequencing, we identify specific genes and pathways implicated in remdesivir metabolism. We show that remdesivir treatment leads to a global repression of mitochondrial respiratory activity. Further, we show that loss of the mitochondrial nucleoside transporter SLC29A3 or the mitochondrial adenylate kinase AK2 provide 10-72-fold mitigation of remdesivir toxicity while conserving its antiviral potency. This work provides candidate gene targets to reduce remdesivir toxicity and provides a proof-of-principle for the use of CRISPR/Cas9 screening to elucidate mechanisms of drug cytotoxicity.

Gene expression of SARS-CoV-2-infected Vero E6 cells with remdesivir treatment

Project description:RNA sequencing was performed on control and SARS-CoV-2 infected Vero E6 cells, with or without remdesivir treatment to study the biological changes after SARS-CoV-2 infection and to evaluate the effectiveness of remdesivir on the gene expression level. 500,000 Vero E6 cells were seeded in 6-well plates. The following day, the cell medium was replaced with fresh medium supplemented with either DMSO or 1 µM remdesivir, and cells were either mock-infected or infected with SARS-CoV-2 USA-WA1/2020 (MOI=0.3), with three replicates per experimental condition. Cells were harvested 24 hours after infection, and total RNA was extracted using the Qiagen® RNeasy® Plus Mini Kit. The quality of the extracted RNA was assessed with the Agilent® 2100 Bioanalyzer. Libraries were prepared from total RNA following ribosome RNA depletion using standard protocol according to Illumina®. Total RNA sequencing was then performed on the Illumina® NextSeq system; 150bp paired-end runs were performed and 100 million raw reads per sample were generated.

Clofazimine is a broad-spectrum coronavirus inhibitor that antagonizes SARS-CoV-2 replication in primary human cell culture and hamsters

Project description:COVID-19 is the third outbreak of zoonotic coronavirus (CoV) of the century after the epidemic Severe acute respiratory syndrome CoV (SARS-CoV) in 2003 and Middle East respiratory syndrome CoV (MERS-CoV) in 2012. Treatment options for CoVs are largely lacking. Here, we show that clofazimine, an anti-leprosy drug with favorable safety and pharmacokinetics profile, possesses pan-coronaviral inhibitory activity, and can antagonize SARS-CoV-2 replication in multiple in vitro systems, including the human embryonic stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes and ex vivo lung cultures. The FDA-approved molecule was found to inhibit multiple steps of viral replication, suggesting polypharmacology is likely underlying its antiviral activity. In a hamster model of SARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis, prophylactic and therapeutic administration of clofazimine significantly reduced lung viral load and fecal viral shedding, as well as reversal of cytokine storm. Additionally, clofazimine exhibited antiviral drug synergy when administered with remdesivir. Since clofazimine is orally bioavailable and has a comparatively low manufacturing cost, it is an attractive clinical candidate for outpatient treatment and remdesivir-based combinatorial therapy for hospitalized COVID-19 patients, particularly in developing countries. Taken together, our data provide evidence that clofazimine may prove effective against current pandemic SARS-CoV-2, endemic MERS-CoV in the Middle East, and, possibly most importantly, emerging CoV of the future.

The potential of remdesivir to affect function, metabolism and proliferation of in vitro heart and kidney models

Project description:Here, we performed an in vitro toxicity assessment for remdesivir at clinically relevant concentrations around the cmax of 9 µM using H9c2 rat cardiomyoblasts and neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes (NMCM) as heart models and rat NRK-52E cells and human RPTEC/TERT1 cells as kidney models. Due to the tendency of nucleoside analogs for mitochondrial toxicity, we focused on metabolic changes and mitochondrial function. Additionally, we analyzed the functionality of NMCM and determined early proteomic changes.

Human lung organoid for modeling infection and disease conditions (Lung II)

Project description:We sought to define the host immune response, a.k.a, the “cytokine storm” that has been implicated in fatal COVID-19 using an AI-based approach. Over 45,000 publicly available transcriptomic datasets of viral pandemics were analyzed to extract a 166-gene signature using ACE2 as a ‘seed’ gene; ACE2 was rationalized because the receptor it encodes enables the virus that causes Covid-19, SARS-CoV-2, to enter host cells. The signature was surprisingly conserved in all viral pandemics, including COVID-19, inspiring the nomenclature ViP-signature. A subset of 20-genes classified disease severity in respiratory pandemics. The ViP signatures pinpointed airway epithelial and myeloid cells as the major contributors of an IL-15 cytokine storm, and epithelial and NK cell destruction as determinants of severity/fatality. They also helped formulate precise therapeutic goals to reduce disease symptoms and severity. Thus, the ViP signatures provide a quantitative and qualitative framework for titrating the immune response in viral pandemics and may serve as a powerful unbiased tool in our armamentarium to rapidly assess disease severity and vet candidate drugs.

Microarray analysis of immunity in response to injection of non-specific long dsRNA in kuruma shrimp, Marsupenaeus japonicus

Project description:There is continuous interest in the anti-viral immune response of shrimp to prevent bacterial and viral infection. In this study, global expression analysis through microarray was conducted to gain insights about the mechanisms involved in the protection of non-specific double stranded RNA –injected shrimps against infectious diseases. Hemocytes were collected from different shrimp groups injected with PBS (Phosphate buffered saline), siGFP and dsGFP at 12 and 24 hour timepoints. Genes were clustered based on expression and treatment to highlight differences in expression related to the type of injection.
