Project description:Repeated Omicron infection alleviates SARS-CoV-2 immune imprinting
| PRJNA1031769 | ENA
Project description:The ancestral SARS-CoV-2 strain that initiated the Covid-19 pandemic at the end of 2019 has rapidly mutated into multiple variants of concern with variable pathogenicity and increasing immune escape strategies. However, differences in host cellular antiviral responses upon infection with SARS-CoV-2 variants remains elusive. Leveraging whole cell proteomics, we determined host signalling pathways that are differentially modulated upon infection with the clinical isolates of the ancestral SARS-CoV-2 B.1 and the variants of concern Delta and Omicron BA.1. Our findings illustrate alterations in the global host proteome landscape upon infection with SARS-CoV-2 variants and the resulting host immune responses. Additionally, viral proteome kinetics reveal declining levels of viral protein expression during Omicron BA.1 infection when compared to ancestral B.1 and Delta variants, consistent with its reduced replication rates. Moreover, molecular assays reveal deferral activation of specific host antiviral signalling upon Omicron BA.1 and BA.2 infection. Our study provides an overview of host proteome profile of multiple SARS-CoV-2 variants and brings forth a better understanding of the instigation of key immune signalling pathways causative for the differential pathogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 variants.

Project description:Omicron is currently the dominant SARS-CoV-2 variant and several sublineages have emerged. Questions remain about the impact of previous SARS-CoV-2 exposure on cross-variant immune responses elicited by the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron sublineage BA.2 compared to BA.1. Here we show that without previous history of COVID-19, BA.2 infection induces a reduced immune response against all variants of concern (VOC) compared to BA.1 infection. The absence of ACE2 binding in sera of previously naïve BA.1 and BA.2 patients indicates a lack of meaningful neutralization. In contrast, anti-spike antibody levels and neutralizing activity greatly increased in the BA.1 and BA.2 patients with a previous history of COVID-19. Transcriptome analyses of peripheral immune cells showed significant differences in immune response and specific antibody generation between BA.1 and BA.2 patients as well as significant differences in the expression of specific immune genes. In summary, prior infection status significantly impacts the innate and adaptive immune response against VOC following BA.2 infection.

Project description:A critical aspect of the mechanism of SARS-CoV-2 infection is the protease-mediated activation of the viral spike (S) protein. The type II transmembrane serine protease TMPRSS2 is crucial for SARS-CoV-2 infection in lung epithelial Calu-3 cells and murine airways. However, the importance of TMPRSS2 needs to be re-examined because the ability to utilize TMPRSS2 is significantly reduced in the Omicron variants that spread globally. For this purpose, replication profiles of SARS-CoV-2 were analyzed in human respiratory organoids. All tested viruses, including Omicron variants, replicated efficiently in these organoids. Notably, all SARS-CoV-2 strains retained replication ability in TMPRSS2-gene knockout (KO) respiratory organoids, suggesting that TMPRSS2 is not essential for SARS-CoV-2 infection in human respiratory tissues. However, TMPRSS2-gene knockout significantly reduces the inhibitory effect of nafamostat, suggesting the advantage of TMPRSS2-utilizing ability for the SARS-CoV-2 infection in these organoids. Interestingly, Omicron variants regained the TMPRSS2-utilizing ability in recent subvariants. The basal infectivity would be supported mainly by cathepsins because the cathepsin inhibitor, EST, showed a significant inhibitory effect on infection with any SARS-CoV-2 strains, mainly when used with nafamostat. A supplementary contribution of other serine proteases was also suggested because the infection of the Delta variant was still inhibited partially by nafamostat in TMPRSS2 KO organoids. Thus, various proteases, including TMPRSS2, other serine proteases, and cathepsins, co-operatively contribute to SARS-CoV-2 infection significantly in the respiratory organoids. Thus, SARS-CoV-2 infection in the human respiratory tissues would be more complex than observed in cell lines or mice.

Project description:Ancestral SARS coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) and variants of concern (VOC) caused a global pandemic with a spectrum of disease variation linked to immune dysfunction. The mechanistic underpinnings of variation related to lung epithelium are relatively understudied. Here, we biobanked lung organoids by preserving stem cell function. We optimized viral infection with H1N1 swine flu and next comprehensively characterized epithelial responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection in phenotypically stable lung organoids from twenty different subjects. We discovered Tetraspanin 8 (TSPAN8) as a novel mediator of SARS-CoV-2-infection. TSPAN8 facilitates SARS-CoV-2 infection rates but does not via enhanced ACE-2-mediated entry. In head-to-head comparisons with Ancestral SARS-CoV-2, Delta- and Omicron- VOC displayed lower overall infection rates of organoids but triggered increased epithelial interferon responses. All variants shared highest tropism for ciliated- and goblet- cells. ACE2- and TSPAN8- expression are universal features of infected cells. TSPAN8-blocking antibodies diminish SARS-CoV-2 infection and may spur novel avenues for COVID-19 therapy.

Project description:A recombinant SARS-CoV lacking the envelope (E) protein is attenuated in vivo. Here we report that E protein PDZ-binding motif (PBM), a domain involved in protein-protein interactions, is a major virulence determinant in vivo. Elimination of SARS-CoV E protein PBM by using reverse genetics led to attenuated viruses (SARS-CoV-mutPBM) and to a reduction in the deleterious exacerbate immune response triggered during infection with the parental virus (SARS-CoV-wt). Cellular protein syntenin bound E protein PBM during SARS-CoV infection. Syntenin activates p38 MAPK leading to overexpression of inflammatory cytokines, and we have shown that active p38 MAPK was reduced in lungs of mice infected with SARS-CoVs lacking E protein PBM (SARS-CoV-mutPBM) as compared with the parental virus (SARS-CoV-wt), leading to a decreased expression of inflammatory cytokines and to viral attenuation. Therefore, E protein PBM is a virulence factor that activates pathogenic immune response most likely by using syntenin as a mediator of p38 MAPK induced inflammation. Three biological replicates were independently hybridized (one channel per slide) for each sample type (SARS-CoV-wt, SARS-CoV-mutPBM, Mock).

Project description:To further investigate the underlying mechanisms of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) pathogenesis and evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of potential drugs and vaccines it is necessary to use an animal model that is highly representative of the human condition in terms of respiratory anatomy, physiology and clinical sequelae. The ferret, Mustela putorius furo, supports SARS-CoV replication and displays many of the symptoms and pathological features seen in SARS-CoV-infected humans. We have recently established a SARS-CoV infection-challenge ferret platform for use in evaluating potential therapeutics to treat SARS. The main objective of the current study was to extend our previous results and identify early host immune responses upon infection and determine immune correlates of protection upon challenge with SARS-CoV in ferrets. Keywords: time course This study is a simple time course (58 day) examination of host responses in 35 SARS-CoV (TOR2) infected ferrets with the addition of a challenge inoculation of SARS CoV (TOR2) at day 29 post infection. Three mock-infected ferrets are included as negative controls. Due to the unavailability of ferret microarrays, Affymetrix Canine 2.0 oligonucleotide arrays were chosen following sequence analysis of our ferret cDNA library (~5000 clones) and demonstration of high levels of homology (>80%) between dog and ferret.

Project description:RNA-Seq was used to study changes in gene expression in saliva samples from 266 human subjects after SARS-COV-2 infection, vaccination, or combined infection and vaccination (breakthrough). Approximately equal numbers of males and females, matched for age, were profiled after subjects tested positive for COVID-19 by PCR and sequencing of the variant. In addition to samples from uninfected controls with and without vaccination, samples from infected subjects with and without vaccination that represent eight major SARS-COV-2 lineages are included: epsilon, iota, alpha, delta, omicron BA.1, omicron BA.2, omicron BA.4, and omicron BA.5. Stranded single-end sequencing was performed using standard Illumina protocols. Reads were quantified to hg38 human transcriptome using Salmon after adapter trimming. Quantified reads were filtered to remove features with fewer than one count in 80% of the samples, and normalized using TPM, followed by quantile and log2 transformation.

Project description:Background: Type I interferons (IFNs) are essential to the clearance of viral diseases, in part by initiating upregulation of IFN regulated genes (IRGs). A clear distinction between genes upregulated directly by virus and genes upregulated by secondary IFN production has not been made. Here we investigated the genes regulated by IFN-a2b compared to the genes regulated by SARS-CoV infection in ferrets. Methods: We characterized early host immune responses in peripheral blood and lung necropsies of ferrets injected with IFN-a2b or infected with SARS-CoV/Tor 2 strain, using microarray analysis on the Affymetrix platform. Results: We identified a common IRG signature that was upregulated in both SARS-CoV infected ferrets as well as in ferrets injected with IFN-a2b. We also identified unique patterns of gene expression for leukocyte activation, cell adhesion and complement pathways between IFN-a2b injection and SARS-CoV infection. Conclusions: Our results define the effects of IFN-a2b on the immune system of ferrets highlighting genes regulated by IFN during SARS-CoV infection. We have shown the similarities and differences of top funcional gene groups as well as pathways that play key roles in early immune responses in ferrets in response to IFN-a2b or SARS-CoV. Key words: ferret, gene expression, SARS, interferon. Keywords: time course In experiments with IFN-a2b, for peripheral blood, 15 ferrets were randomly allocated to 3 groups: Day 0, 5 ferrets (no IFN injection), day 1, 6 ferrets (injected), and day 2, 4 ferrets (injected). For lung necropsies of injected ferrets with IFN-a2b, we used 12 ferrets in 3 groups: 4 ferrets, day 0 (no IFN injection), 4 ferrets, day 1 (injected) and 4 ferrets, day 2 (injected). Experimental groups for SARS-CoV infection was as follows: For peripheral blood, 3 and 4 ferrets for day 0 (no infection) and day 2 (infection) respectively. For lung neceropsies, a total of 9 ferrets in 3 groups, each with 3 replicates for day 0 (no infection), day 1 (infection) and day 2 (infection).
