To predict the tropism of human coronaviruses, we profile 28 SARS-CoV-2 and coronavirus-associated receptors factors (SCARFs) using single-cell transcriptomics across various healthy tissues. SCARFs include cellular both facilitating restricting viral entry. Intestinal goblet cells, enterocytes, kidney proximal tubule cells appear highly permissive to SARS-CoV-2, consistent with clinical data. Our analysis also predicts non-canonical entry paths for lung brain infections. Spermatogonial prostate endocrine be infection, suggesting male-specific vulnerabilities.

SARS-CoV-2-mediated dysregulation of metabolism and autophagy uncovers host-targeting antivirals

Nature Communications, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 12(1)

Опубликована: Июнь 21, 2021

Viruses manipulate cellular metabolism and macromolecule recycling processes like autophagy. Dysregulated might lead to excessive inflammatory autoimmune responses as observed in severe long COVID-19 patients. Here we show that SARS-CoV-2 modulates reduces Accordingly, compound-driven induction of autophagy limits propagation. In detail, SARS-CoV-2-infected cells accumulation key metabolites, activation inhibitors (AKT1, SKP2) reduction proteins responsible for initiation (AMPK, TSC2, ULK1), membrane nucleation, phagophore formation (BECN1, VPS34, ATG14), well autophagosome-lysosome fusion ATG14 oligomers). Consequently, phagophore-incorporated markers LC3B-II P62 accumulate, which confirm a hamster model lung samples Single-nucleus single-cell sequencing patient-derived mucosal differential transcriptional regulation immune genes depending on cell type, disease duration, replication levels.

SARS-CoV-2 infection induces a pro-inflammatory cytokine response through cGAS-STING and NF-κB

Communications Biology, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 5(1)

Опубликована: Янв. 12, 2022

SARS-CoV-2 is a novel virus that has rapidly spread, causing global pandemic. In the majority of infected patients, leads to mild disease; however, in significant proportion infections, individuals develop severe symptoms can lead long-lasting lung damage or death. These cases are often associated with high levels pro-inflammatory cytokines and low antiviral responses, which cause systemic complications. Here, we have evaluated transcriptional cytokine secretion profiles detected distinct upregulation inflammatory cell cultures samples taken from patients. Building on these observations, found specific activation NF-κB block IRF3 nuclear translocation cells. This response was mediated by cGAS-STING could be attenuated through several STING-targeting drugs. Our results show directs mediated, NF-κB-driven immune human epithelial cells likely contributes responses seen patients therapeutically targeted suppress disease symptoms.

Role of Heat Shock Proteins (HSP70 and HSP90) in Viral Infection

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 22(17), С. 9366 - 9366

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are a large group of chaperones found in most eukaryotes and bacteria. They responsible for the correct protein folding, protection cell against stressors, presenting immune inflammatory cytokines; furthermore, they important factors regulating differentiation, survival death. Although biological function HSPs is to maintain homeostasis, some them can be used by viruses both fold their increase chances unfavorable host conditions. Folding viral as well replicating many different carried out by, among others, from HSP70 HSP90 families. In cases, family directly interact with polymerase enhance replication or facilitate formation complex and/or stability proteins. It known that expression genes at transcriptional translational levels. Both these form and, consequently, entry virus into cell. Current studies have shown significance course infection SARS-CoV-2. A comprehensive understanding chaperone use during will provide new insight mechanisms therapeutic potential. The aim this study describe molecular basis participation infections potential antiviral therapy.

Опубликована: Сен. 21, 2023

Organoids derived from stem cells have become an increasingly important tool for studying human development and modeling disease. However, methods are still needed to control study spatiotemporal patterns of gene expression in organoids. Here we combined optogenetics perturbation technologies activate or knock-down RNA target genes programmable patterns. To illustrate the usefulness our approach, locally activated Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) signaling organoid model neurodevelopment. Spatial single-cell transcriptomic analyses showed that this local induction was sufficient generate stereotypically patterned organoids revealed new insights into SHH's contribution regulation With study, propose optogenetic perturbations combination with spatial transcriptomics as a powerful technology reprogram cell fates tissue patterning

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), an RNA virus, is responsible for the disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic of 2020. Experimental evidence suggests that microRNA can mediate intracellular defence mechanism against some viruses. The purpose this study was to identify with predicted binding sites in SARS-CoV-2 genome, compare these their expression profiles lung epithelial tissue and make inference towards possible roles mitigating infection. We hypothesize high specific coronavirus-targeting epithelia may protect infection viral propagation, conversely, low confer susceptibility have identified 128 human potential target most which very epithelia. Six are differentially expressed upon vitro SARS-CoV-2. Additionally, 28 also SARS-CoV genome while 23 MERS-CoV genome. found a number commonly two other studies. Further research into identifying bona fide targeting will be useful understanding importance as cellular pathogenic infections.

Journal of Clinical Medicine, Год журнала: 2020, Номер 9(11), С. 3743 - 3743

Опубликована: Ноя. 21, 2020

Background: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection (coronavirus disease 2019; COVID-19) is associated with adverse outcomes in patients cardiovascular (CVD). The aim of the study was to characterize interaction between SARS-CoV-2 and Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE2) functional networks a focus on CVD. Methods: Using network medicine approach publicly available datasets, we investigated ACE2 tissue expression described that could be affected by heart, lungs nervous system. We compared them changes ACE-2 following analyzing public data human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs). This analysis performed using Network Relative Importance (NERI) algorithm, which integrates protein-protein co-expression networks. also miRNA-target predictions identify miRNAs regulate ACE2-related play role COVID19 outcome. Finally, enrichment for identifying main COVID-19 risk groups. Results: found similar confidence levels systems, supporting heart potential target SARS-CoV-2. Analysis infected hiPSC-CMs identified multiple hub genes corrupted signaling can responsible symptoms. most were EGFR (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor), FN1 (Fibronectin 1), TP53, HSP90AA1, APP (Amyloid Beta Precursor Protein), while interactions MAST2 CALM1 (Calmodulin 1). Enrichment revealed diseases ACE2, especially cancerous diseases, obesity, hypertensive disease, Alzheimer’s non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, congestive failure. Among ACE2-network components connected SARS-Cov-2 interactome, AGT (Angiotensinogen), CAT (Catalase), DPP4 (Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4), CCL2 (C-C Motif Chemokine Ligand 2), TFRC (Transferrin Receptor) CAV1 (Caveolin-1), factors. first time common regulators virus-related proteins all analyzed datasets. top regulating miR-27a-3p, miR-26b-5p, miR-10b-5p, miR-302c-5p, hsa-miR-587, hsa-miR-1305, hsa-miR-200b-3p, hsa-miR-124-3p, hsa-miR-16-5p.
