Project description:Here we report the transcriptional response to SARS-CoV-2 in cornea, limbus and sclera from human cadaver donor tissue. All three tissues are characterized by an NFkB-mediated chemokine response to viral infection as well as type-I interferon stimulated genes.
Project description:To explore the relationship between SARS-CoV-2 infection in different time before operation and postoperative main complications (mortality, main pulmonary and cardiovascular complications) 30 days after operation; To determine the best timing of surgery after SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Project description:HAE cultures were infected with SARS-CoV, SARS-dORF6 or SARS-BatSRBD and were directly compared to A/CA/04/2009 H1N1 influenza-infected cultures. Cell samples were collected at various hours post-infection for analysis. Time Points = 0, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84 and 96 hrs post-infection for SARS-CoV, SARS-dORF6 and SARS-BatSRBD. Time Points = 0, 6, 12, 18, 24, 36 and 48 hrs post-infection for H1N1. Done in triplicate for RNA Triplicates are defined as 3 different wells, plated at the same time and using the same cell stock for all replicates. Time matched mocks done in triplicate from same cell stock as rest of samples. Culture medium (the same as what the virus stock is in) will be used for the mock infections. Infection was done at an MOI of 2 for SARS viruses and an MOI of 1 for H1N1.

Time Points = 0, 6, 12, 18, 24, 36 and 48 hrs post-infection for H1N1. Done in triplicate or quadruplicate for RNA Triplicates/quadruplicates are defined as 3/4 different wells, plated at the same time and using the same cell stock for all replicates. Time matched mocks done in triplicate from same cell stock as rest of samples. Culture medium (the same as what the virus stock is in) will be used for the mock infections. Infection was done at an MOI of 2.
Project description:For the assessment of host response dynamics to SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 infections in human airway epithelial cells at ambient temperature corresponding to the upper or lower respiratory tract. We performed a temporal transcriptome analysis on human airway epithelial cell (hAEC) cultures infected with SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2, as well as uninfected hAEC cultures, incubated either at 33°C or 37°C. hAEC cultures were harvested at 24, 48 72, 96 hpi and processed for Bulk RNA Barcoding and sequencing (BRB-seq), which allows a rapid and sensitive genome-wide transcriptomic analysis in a highly multiplexed manner. Transcriptome data was obtained from a total of 7 biological donors for pairwise comparisons of SARS-CoV or SARS-CoV-2 virus-infected to unexposed hAEC cultures at respective time points and temperatures.
Project description:The experiment aims at characterizing the immune responses elicited by the BNT162b2 vaccine against SARS-CoV-2, initially administered in a two dose regimen (second dose after three weeks followinf the first dose) In particular the transcriptional landscape of circulating T and B lymphocytes has been profiled longitudinnaly by scRNA-seq coupleD with CITE-seq of 19 cell surface markers to better classify T cells subpopulations, LIBRA-seq to assess the Spike-specificity of BCRs and and V(D)J seq to also track T and B cell clones dynamics. Eeach sample was profiled before vaccination (T0), 21 days after the first dose (T1), 2 months after the first dose (1 month after the second dose) (T2). The immune responses were characterized using PBMC from 3 SARS-CoV-2 experienced donors (experiencing SARS-Cov-2 at least 4 months before the first vaccinatin) and 2 SARS-CoV-2 unexperienced donors.

Project description:We performed RNA-sequencing in uninfected, SARS-CoV-2-infected, and additionally remdesivir treated ex vivo cultured human islets from two donors to shed light on the transcriptional changes occurring upon viral infection.
Project description:To better understand the biological pathways by which UV inactivated SARS-CoV-induced pulmonary eosinophilia occurs, we examined global transcriptional changes in macrophages from the lungs of mouse. Female BALB/c mice were used at 21 weeks of age. Mice were subcutaneously immunized with UV inactivated SARS-CoV (UV-V) or UV-V and Toll like receptor (TLR) ligands at 6 and 1 weeks prior to mouse-adapted SARS-CoV (n=6 per group). Mice were intranasally challenged with 1E+6 TCID50 in 30M-NM-<L. MEM was challenged in six mice as control infection. Mice were sacrificed and collected lungs at 1 days after challenge, then CD11b positive cells were isolated from the lungs of these mice. These cells were used for the analysis of microarray.
Project description:SARS-CoV-2 infection in human can cause medical complications across various tissues and organs. Despite of the advances to understanding the pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2, its tissue tropism and interactions with host cells have not been fully understood. Existing clinical data have suggested possible SARS-CoV-2 infection in human skeleton system. In the present study, we exmined the effects of authentic SARS-CoV-2 on bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs).
