SARS-CoV-2 infection in the lungs of human ACE2 transgenic mice causes severe inflammation and immune cell infiltration, and compromised respiratory function

Project description:We evaluate heterozygous transgenic mice expressing human ACE2 receptor driven by the epithelial cell promoter cytokeratin-18 promoter (K18-hACE2) as a model of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Intranasal inoculation of K18-hACE2 mice with SARS-CoV-2 results in high levels of infection in the lung parenchyma with spread to other organs.

Regulation by the homologous Ace2 and Swi5 factors of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Project description:The homologous Ace2 and Swi5 transcription factors of Saccharomyces cerevisiae have identical DNA-binding domains, and both are cell cycle regulated. There are common target genes, as well as genes activated only by Ace2 and other genes activated only by Swi5. Keywords: genetic modification RNA was isolated from four strains: wild type, ace2 gene deletion, swi5 gene deletion, and the ace2 swi5 double gene deletion. RNAs from the three mutant strains were compared to wild type RNA in a microarray hybridization experiment.

Type II interferon-dependent antibacterial defense in the lungs is compromised in diabetes

Project description:Diabetes mellitus is associated with an increased risk of pneumonia, which is often caused by so-called typical and atypical pathogens including Streptoccocus pneumoniae and Legionella pneumophila, respectively. Here, we employed a varity of mouse models to investigate how diabetes influences pulmonary antibacterial immunity. Following intranasal infection with Streptoccocus pneumoniae or Legionella pneumphila, type 2 diabetic and prediabetic mice had higher bacterial loads in their lungs as compared to control animals. Single cell RNA sequencing, flow cytometry, and functional analyses revealed a compromised type II IFN (IFNg) production by natural killer cells in diabetic and prediabetic mice, which was linked to reduced IL-12 production by CD103+ dendritic cells. Treatment with IFNg rescued antibacterial defense against L. pneumophila but not against S. pneumoniae in diabetic animals, although impaired production of IFNg also contributed to the compromised anti-pneumococcal resistance in diabetic mice. These findings uncover a mechanism that could help to explain why type 2 diabetes predisposes to pneumonia. We establish proof of concept for host-directed treatment strategies to reinforce compromised IFNg-mediated antibacterial defense against atypical lung pathogens.

Effects of ACE2 on BMPR2 mutation-mediated defects in gene expression

Project description:BMPR2 mutation causes pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH); ACE2 treatment can resolve established BMPR2-mediated PAH. The purpose of this study was to uncover the molecular mechanism behind this. Four groups: +/- ACE2 and +/- BMPR2 transgene, two arrays each, each array a pool of three animals.

In vivo inhibition of nuclear ACE2 translocation protects against SARS-CoV-2 replication and lung damage through epigenetic imprinting

Project description:In vitro, ACE2 translocates to the nucleus to induce SARS-CoV-2 replication. Here, using digital spatial profiling of lung tissues from SARS-CoV-2-infected golden Syrian hamsters, we show that a specific and selective peptide inhibitor of nuclear ACE2 (NACE2i) inhibits viral replication two days after SARS-CoV-2 infection. NACE2i also prevents inflammation and macrophage infiltration, and increases NK cell infiltration in bronchioles. NACE2i treatment restores host translation in infected hamster bronchiolar cells.

ACE2 Enhances Sensitivity to PD-L1 Blockade by Inhibiting Macrophage-Induced Immunosuppression and Angiogenesis

Project description:Anti-PD-L1-based combination immunotherapy has become the first-line treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the objective response rate is lower than 40%, highlighting the need to identify mechanisms of tolerance to immune checkpoint inhibitors and accurate biomarkers of response. Here, we employed next-generation sequencing to analyze HCC samples from 10 patients receiving anti-PD-L1 therapy. Activation of the renin-angiotensin system was elevated in nonresponders compared with responders, and ACE2 expression was significantly downregulated in nonresponders. ACE2 deficiency promoted HCC development and anti-PD-L1 resistance, whereas ACE2 overexpression inhibited HCC progression in immune competent mice. Mass cytometry by time of flight (CyTOF) revealed that ACE2 deficient murine orthotopic tumor tissues featured elevated M2-like tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), displayed a CCR5+PD-L1+ immunosuppressive phenotype, and exhibited high VEGFα expression. ACE2 downregulated tumor intrinsic CCL5 expression by suppressing NF-κB signaling through the ACE2/angiotensin-(1–7)/Mas receptor axis. The lower CCL5 levels led to reduced activation of the JAK-STAT3 pathway and suppressed PD-L1 and VEGFα expression in macrophages, blocking macrophage infiltration and M2-like polarization. Pharmacological targeting of CCR5 using maraviroc enhanced the tumor suppressive effect of anti-PD-L1 therapy. Together, these findings suggest that activation of the ACE2 axis overcomes the immunosuppressive microenvironment of HCC and may serve as an immunotherapeutic target and predictive biomarker of response to PD-L1 blockade.

The sequence of human ACE2 is suboptimal for binding the S spike protein of SARS coronavirus 2

Project description:The rapid and escalating spread of SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) poses an immediate public health emergency, and no approved therapeutics or vaccines are currently available. The viral spike protein S binds membrane-tethered ACE2 on host cells in the lungs to initiate molecular events that ultimately release the viral genome intracellularly. The extracellular protease domain of ACE2 inhibits cell entry of both SARS and SARS-2 coronaviruses by acting as a soluble decoy for receptor binding sites on S, and is a promising candidate for therapeutic and prophylactic development. Using deep mutagenesis, variants of ACE2 are identified with increased binding to the receptor binding domain of S at a cell surface. Mutations are found across the protein-protein interface and also at buried sites where they are predicted to enhance folding and presentation of the interaction epitope. The mutational landscape offers a preliminary blueprint for engineering high affinity ACE2 receptors to meet this unprecedented challenge.
