<li><strong>Local Production of COVID-19 Vaccines: A Strategy for Action</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
COVID-19 has lent a fresh lease of life to local production initiatives particularly in Africa. New initiatives, such as the recently announced mRNA hub for COVID-19 vaccines by the World Health Organization in collaboration with the Government of South Africa, and several other projects and programs, are now focusing on creating disseminated manufacturing capacity for current and future pandemic response. This is an important and welcome development for several reasons: it can boost national health security and safeguard lives in regions that have had longstanding problems of access to lifesaving medicines, while also promoting economic development, technological learning, export capacity and regional trade. But current local production efforts raise several serious questions of sustainability. This paper tackles several of these questions: When can we realistically expect production capacity to be built? What might be the potential impact of current efforts to expand supply capacity of COVID-19 vaccines, more generally at the global level, on African investments into local manufacturing? How will these markets evolve at the global and regional levels? Will markets still be available for local manufacturers to tap into by end of 2022 or 2023, and if so, how can we address the technological and market uncertainties related to these investments? What lessons can we glean from local production experiences in the region previously for building vaccine capacity on the continent?

<li><strong>Combination of Antiviral Drugs to Inhibit SARS-CoV-2 Polymerase and Exonuclease as Potential COVID-19 Therapeutics</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
SARS-CoV-2 has an exonuclease-based proofreader, which removes nucleotide inhibitors such as Remdesivir that are incorporated into the viral RNA during replication, reducing the efficacy of these drugs for treating COVID-19. Combinations of inhibitors of both the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase and the exonuclease could overcome this deficiency. Here we report the identification of hepatitis C virus NS5A inhibitors Pibrentasvir and Ombitasvir as SARS- CoV-2 exonuclease inhibitors. In the presence of Pibrentasvir, RNAs terminated with the active forms of the prodrugs Sofosbuvir, Remdesivir, Favipiravir, Molnupiravir and AT-527 were largely protected from excision by the exonuclease, while in the absence of Pibrentasvir, there was rapid excision. Due to its unique structure, Tenofovir-terminated RNA was highly resistant to exonuclease excision even in the absence of Pibrentasvir. Viral cell culture studies also demonstrate significant synergy using this combination strategy. This study supports the use of combination drugs that inhibit both the SARS-CoV-2 polymerase and exonuclease for effective COVID-19 treatment.

<li><strong>An untargeted metabolomic approach to identify antiviral defense mechanisms in memory leukocytes secreting in vitro IgG anti-SARS-Cov-2</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
Available knowledge shows that individuals infected by SARS-CoV-2 undergo an altered metabolic state in multiple organs. Metabolic activities are directly involved in modulating the immune responses against infectious diseases, yet our understanding remains limited on how host metabolism relates with inflammatory responses. To better elucidate the underlying biochemistry of leukocytes response, we focused our analysis on the possible relationships between SARS-CoV-2 post-infection stages and distinct metabolic pathways. Indeed, in cultures of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC, n=48) obtained 60-90 days after infection and showing in vitro IgG antibody memory for spike-S1 antigen (n=19), we observed a significant altered metabolism of tryptophan and urea cycle pathways. This work for the first time identifies metabolic routes in cell metabolism possibly related to later stages of immune defense against SARS-Cov-2 infection, namely when circulating antibodies may be absent, but an antibody memory is present. The results suggest a reprogramming of leukocyte metabolism after viral pathogenesis through activation of specific amino acid pathways possibly related to protective immunity against SARS-CoV-2.

<li><strong>CoVizu: Rapid analysis and visualization of the global diversity of SARS-CoV-2 genomes</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|

Phylogenetics has played a pivotal role in the genomic epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2, such as tracking the emergence and global spread of variants, and scientific communication. However, the rapid accumulation of genomic data from around the world - with over two million genomes currently available in the GISAID database - is testing the limits of standard phylogenetic methods. Here, we describe a new approach to rapidly analyze and visualize large numbers of SARS- CoV-2 genomes. Using Python, genomes are filtered for problematic sites, incomplete coverage, and excessive divergence from a strict molecular clock. All differences from the reference genome, including indels, are extracted using minimap2, and compactly stored as a set of features for each genome. For each Pango lineage (https://cov-lineages.org), we collapse genomes with identical features into ‘variants’, generate 100 bootstrap samples of the feature set union to generate weights, and compute the symmetric differences between the weighted feature sets for every pair of variants. The resulting distance matrices are used to generate neigihbor-joining trees in RapidNJ and converted into a majority- rule consensus tree for the lineage. Branches with support values below 50% or mean lengths below 0.5 differences are collapsed, and tip labels on affected branches are mapped to internal nodes as directly-sampled ancestral variants. Currently, we process about 1.6 million genomes in approximately nine hours on 34 cores. The resulting trees are visualized using the JavaScript framework D3.js as ‘beadplots’, in which variants are represented by horizontal line segments, annotated with beads representing samples by collection date. Variants are linked by vertical edges to represent branches in the consensus tree. These visualizations are published at https://filogeneti.ca/CoVizu.

<li><strong>Lung Epithelial Regulation of BCL2 Related Protein A1 (BCL2A1) by Coronaviruses (SARS-CoV) and Type I Interferon Signaling</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
Highly pathogenic respiratory viruses such as 1918 influenza (HIN1) and coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) induce significant lung injury with diffuse alveolar damage, capillary leak, and extensive cell death resulting in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Direct effects of the virus, as well as host immune response such as proinflammatory cytokine production, contribute to programmed cell death or apoptosis. Alveolar lung epithelial type II (AT2) cells play a major role in the clearance of respiratory viruses, secretion of surfactant proteins and antimicrobial substances into the bronchoalveolar fluid as well as repair of lung injury. Gene expression in AT2 cells is regulated in a tissue and cell- specific manner and in a temporal fashion. The availability of tissue and cell-specific RNA datasets in Human Protein Atlas led to the identification of localized expression patterns of BCL-2 family members such as BCL2 related protein A1 (BCL2A1) in AT2 cells and immune cells of the lung. BCL2A1 expression was regulated by multiple stimuli including Toll- like receptor (TLR) ligands, interferons (IFNs), inflammatory cytokines, and inhibited by the steroid dexamethasone. In this study, regulation of BCL2A1 gene expression in human lung epithelial cells by several respiratory viruses and type I interferon signaling was investigated. SARS-CoV-2 infection significantly induced BCL2A1 expression in human lung epithelial cells within 24 hours that required the expression of Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). BCL2A1 mRNA induction by SARS-CoV-2 was correlated with the induced expression of IFN-{beta} and IFN-regulated transcription factor mRNA. BCL2A1 was induced by IFN-{beta} treatment or by infection with influenza virus lacking the non-structural protein1(NS1) in NHBE cells. Furthermore, bioinformatics revealed that a subset of BCL-2 family members involved in the control of apoptosis and transcription such as BCL2A1, BCL2L14, BCL3, and BCL6 were regulated in the lung epithelial cells by coronaviruses and in the lung tissue samples of COVID-19 patients. Transcriptomic data also suggested that these genes were differentially regulated by the steroid drug dexamethasone.

<li><strong>Cornering an Ever-Evolving Coronavirus: TATX-03, a fully human synergistic multi-antibody cocktail targeting the SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein with in vivo efficacy</strong> -
|

<div>
|

The emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has created an ongoing global human health crisis and will likely become endemic, requiring novel sustainable therapeutic strategies. We report on the discovery of a fully human multi-antibody cocktail (TATX-03) targeting diversified non-overlapping epitopes on the SARS- CoV-2 spike protein that suppressed replication-competent viral titers to undetectable levels in the lungs of SARS-CoV-2 challenged hamsters upon both prophylactic and therapeutic administration. While monotherapy with two of the individual cocktail components also showed clear in vivo protection, neither recapitulated the efficacy of TATX-03. This synergistic effect was further supported by examining in vivo efficacy of these individual antibodies and corresponding combination therapy at a lower dose. Furthermore, in vitro screenings using VSV-particles pseudo-typed with spike proteins representing the SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern Alpha, Beta, and Delta showed that TATX-03 maintained its neutralization potency. These results merit further development of TATX-03 as a potential therapy for SARS-CoV-2 infection with resistance to mutagenic escape.

<li><strong>An Orally Available Cathepsin L Inhibitor Protects Lungs Against SARS-CoV-2-Induced Diffuse Alveolar Damage in African Green Monkeys</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
The COVID-19 pandemic resulted from global infection by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus and rapidly emerged as an urgent health issue requiring effective treatments. To initiate infection, the Spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 requires proteolytic processing mediated by host proteases. Among the host proteases proposed to carry out this activation is the cysteine protease cathepsin L. Inhibiting cathepsin L has been proposed as a therapeutic strategy for treating COVID-19. SLV213 (K777) is an orally administered small molecule protease inhibitor that exhibits in vitro activity against a range of viruses, including SARS-CoV-2. To confirm efficacy in vivo, K777 was evaluated in an African green monkey (AGM) model of COVID-19. A pilot experiment was designed to test K777 in a prophylactic setting, animals were pre-treated with 100mg/kg K777 (N=4) or vehicle (N=2) before inoculation with SARS-CoV-2. Initial data demonstrated that K777 treatment reduced pulmonary pathology compared to vehicle-treated animals. A second study was designed to test activity in a therapeutic setting, with K777 treatment (33 mg/kg or 100 mg/kg) initiated 8 hours after exposure to the virus. In both experiments, animals received K777 daily via oral gavage for 7 days. Vehicle-treated animals exhibited higher lung weights, pleuritis, and diffuse alveolar damage. In contrast, lung pathology was reduced in K777-treated monkeys, and histopathological analyses confirmed the lack of diffuse alveolar damage. Antiviral effects were further demonstrated by quantitative reductions in viral load of samples collected from upper and lower airways. These preclinical data support the potential for early SLV213 treatment in COVID-19 patients to prevent severe lung pathology and disease progression.

<li><strong>Integrin activation is an essential component of SARS-CoV-2 infection</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
Cellular entry of coronaviruses depends on binding of the viral spike (S) protein to a specific cellular receptor, the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). Furthermore, the viral spike protein expresses an RGD motif, suggesting that cell surface integrins may be attachment co-receptors. However, using infectious SARS-CoV-2 requires a biosafety level 3 laboratory (BSL-3), which limits the techniques that can be used to study the mechanism of cell entry. Here, we UV- inactivated SARS-CoV-2 and fluorescently labeled the envelope membrane with octadecyl rhodamine B (R18) to explore the role of integrin activation in mediating both cell entry and productive infection. We used flow cytometry and confocal fluorescence microscopy to show that fluorescently labeled SARS-CoV-2R18 particles engage basal-state integrins. Furthermore, we demonstrate that Mn2+, which activates integrins and induces integrin extension, enhances cell binding and entry of SARS-CoV-2R18 in proportion to the fraction of integrins activated. We also show that one class of integrin antagonist, which binds to the I MIDAS site and stabilizes the inactive, closed conformation, selectively inhibits the engagement of SARS-CoV-2R18 with basal state integrins, but is ineffective against Mn2+-activated integrins. At the same time, RGD-integrin antagonists inhibited SARS-CoV-2R18 binding regardless of integrin activity state. Integrins transmit signals bidirectionally: ‘inside-out’ signaling primes the ligand binding function of integrins via a talin dependent mechanism and ‘outside-in’ signaling occurs downstream of integrin binding to macromolecular ligands. Outside-in signaling is mediated by G13 and induces cell spreading, retraction, migration, and proliferation. Using cell-permeable peptide inhibitors of talin, and G13 binding to the cytoplasmic tail of an integrin’s {beta} subunit, we further demonstrate that talin-mediated signaling is essential for productive infection by SARS-CoV-2.

<li><strong>Discovery of nanobodies against SARS-CoV-2 and an uncommon neutralizing mechanism</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
SARS-CoV-2 and its variants continue to threaten public health. The virus recognizes the host cell by attaching its Spike receptor-binding domain (RBD) to the host receptor ACE2. Therefore, RBD is a primary target for neutralizing antibodies and vaccines. Here we report the isolation, and biological and structural characterization of two single- chain antibodies (nanobodies, DL4 and DL28) from RBD-immunized alpaca. Both nanobodies bind Spike with affinities that exceeded the detection limit (picomolar) of the biolayer interferometry assay and neutralize the original SARS-CoV-2 strain with IC50 of 86 ng mL-1 (DL4) and 385 ng mL-1 (DL28). DL4 and a more potent, rationally designed mutant, neutralizes the Alpha variant as potently as the original strain but only displays marginal activity against the Beta variant. By contrast, the neutralizing activity of DL28, when in the Fc-fused divalent form, was less affected by the mutations in the Beta variant (IC50 of 414 ng mL-1 for Alpha, 1060 ng mL-1 for Beta). Crystal structure studies reveal that DL4 blocks ACE2-binding by direct competition, while DL28 neutralizes SARS-CoV-2 by an uncommon mechanism through which DL28 distorts the receptor-binding motif in RBD and hence prevents ACE2-binding. Our work provides two neutralizing nanobodies for potential therapeutic development and reveals an uncommon mechanism to design and screen novel neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2.

<li><strong>Distinct shifts in site-specific glycosylation pattern of SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins associated with arising mutations in the D614G and Alpha variants</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
Extensive glycosylation of the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 virus not only shields the major part of it from host immune responses, but glycans at specific sites also act on its conformation dynamics and contribute to efficient host receptor binding, and hence infectivity. As variants of concern arise during the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is unclear if mutations accumulated within the spike protein would affect its site-specific glycosylation pattern. The Alpha variant derived from the D614G lineage is distinguished from others by having deletion mutations located right within an immunogenic supersite of the spike N-terminal domain that make it refractory to most neutralizing antibodies directed against this domain. Despite maintaining an overall similar structural conformation, our mass spectrometry- based site-specific glycosylation analyses of similarly produced spike proteins with and without the D614G and Alpha variant mutations reveal a significant shift in the processing state of N-glycans on one specific N-terminal domain site. Its conversion to a higher proportion of complex type structures is indicative of altered spatial accessibility attributable to mutations specific to the Alpha variant that may impact its transmissibility. This and other more subtle changes in glycosylation features detected at other sites provide crucial missing information otherwise not apparent in the available cryogenic electron microscopy-derived structures of the spike protein variants.

<b>Objective</b> To estimate the effectiveness of the inactivated whole-virus vaccine, CoronaVac, against symptomatic COVID-19 in the elderly population of Sao Paulo State, Brazil during widespread circulation of the Gamma variant. <b>Design</b> Test negative case-control study. <b>Setting</b> Health-care facilities in Sao Paulo State, Brazil. <b>Participants</b> 43,774 adults aged 70 years or older who were residents of Sao Paulo State and underwent SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR testing from January 17 to April 29, 2021. 26,433 cases with symptomatic COVID-19 and 17,622 symptomatic, test negative controls were selected into 7,950 matched pairs, according to age, sex, self-reported race, municipality of residence, prior COVID-19 status and date of RT-PCR testing. <b>Intervention</b> Vaccination with a two- dose regimen of CoronaVac. <b>Main outcome measures</b> RT-PCR confirmed symptomatic COVID-19 and COVID-19 associated hospitalizations and deaths. <b>Results</b> Adjusted vaccine effectiveness against symptomatic COVID-19 was 18.2% (95% CI, 0.0 to 33.2) in the period 0-13 days after the second dose and 41.6% (95% CI, 26.9 to 53.3) in the period >=14 days after the second dose. Adjusted vaccine effectiveness against hospitalisations was 59.0% (95% CI, 44.2 to 69.8) and against deaths was 71.4% (95% CI, 53.7 to 82.3) in the period >=14 days after the second dose. Vaccine effectiveness >=14 days after the second dose declined with increasing age for the three outcomes, and among individuals aged 70-74 years it was 61.8% (95% CI, 34.8 to 77.7) against symptomatic disease, 80.1% (95% CI, 55.7 to 91.0) against hospitalisations and 86.0% (95% CI, 50.4 to 96.1) against deaths. <b>Conclusions</b> Vaccination with CoronaVac was associated with a reduction in symptomatic COVID-19, hospitalisations and deaths in adults aged 70 years or older in a setting with extensive Gamma variant transmission. However, significant protection was not observed until completion of the two-dose regimen, and vaccine effectiveness declined with increasing age amongst this elderly population.

Self-instigated isolation is heavily relied on to curb SARS-CoV-2 transmission. Accounting for uncertainty in the latent and prepatent periods, as well as the proportion of infections that remain asymptomatic, the limits of this intervention at different phases of infection resurgence are estimated. We show that by October 2020, SARS-CoV-2 transmission rates in England had already begun exceeding levels that could be interrupted using this intervention alone, lending support to the second national lockdown on November 5th 2020.

<li><strong>SARS-CoV-2 Restructures the Host Chromatin Architecture</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
SARS-CoV-2 has made >190-million infections worldwide, thus it is pivotal to understand the viral impacts on host cells. Many viruses can significantly alter host chromatin, but such roles of SARS-CoV-2 are largely unknown. Here, we characterized the three-dimensional (3D) genome architecture and epigenome landscapes in human cells after SARS- CoV-2 infection, revealing remarkable restructuring of host chromatin architecture. High-resolution Hi-C 3.0 uncovered widespread A compartmental weakening and A-B mixing, together with a global reduction of intra-TAD chromatin contacts. The cohesin complex, a central organizer of the 3D genome, was significantly depleted from intra-TAD regions, supporting that SARS-CoV-2 disrupts cohesin loop extrusion. Calibrated ChIP-Seq verified chromatin restructuring by SARS-CoV-2 that is particularly manifested by a pervasive reduction of euchromatin modifications. Built on the rewired 3D genome/epigenome maps, a modified activity-by-contact model highlights the transcriptional weakening of antiviral interferon response genes or virus sensors (e.g., DDX58) incurred by SARS-CoV-2. In contrast, pro-inflammatory genes (e.g. IL-6) high in severe infections were uniquely regulated by augmented H3K4me3 at their promoters. These findings illustrate how SARS-CoV-2 rewires host chromatin architecture to confer immunological gene deregulation, laying a foundation to characterize the long-term epigenomic impacts of this virus.

<li><strong>Viral receptor profiles of masked palm civet revealed by single-cell transcriptomics</strong> -
|
||
<div>
|
||
Civets are small mammals belonging to the family Viverridae. The masked palm civets (Paguma larvata) served as an intermediate host in the bat-to-human transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) in 2003. Because of their unique role in the SARS outbreak, civets were suspected as a potential intermediate host of SARS-CoV-2, the etiological pathogen of the COVID-19 pandemic. Besides their susceptibility to coronaviruses, civets can also be infected by other viruses, such as canine distemper viruses, parvoviruses, influenza viruses, etc. Regarding the ecological and economical role of civets, it is vital to evaluate the potential threats from different pathogens to these animals. Receptor binding is a necessary step for virus entry into host cells. Understanding the distribution of receptors of various viruses provides hints to their potential tissue tropisms. Herein, we characterized the cell atlas of five important organs (the frontal lobe, lung, liver, spleen and kidney) of masked palm civets (Paguma larvata) and described the expression profiles of receptor associated genes of 132 viruses from 25 families, including 16 viruses from 10 families reported before that can attack civets and 116 viruses with little infection record.
