    Inflammation upregulates SGLT1, ACE2 and <t>TMPRSS2</t> in Caco-2/TC7 cells. ( A ) Graphical illustration of the experimental protocol for the standard and inflamed Caco-2/TC7 cell models. Cells were differentiated in 25 mM glucose until day 7, then in 5.5 mM glucose until day 14. Cells were differentiated for 14 days from confluence and treated with dexamethasone (DEX) or 0.1% (v/v) DMSO (vehicle control) up to twice daily for 60 h, 24 h, or 4 h. For the inflamed model, a cytokine cocktail containing IL-1β (25 ng/mL) and TNF-α (50 ng/mL) was added to the basolateral (BL) once daily for 72 h. Finally, cell culture media from both apical (AP) and BL compartments were collected from the inflamed cells for IL-8 quantification. mRNA and protein were extracted from cells in both the standard and inflamed models and analysed through ddPCR and ELISA, respectively. A comparison of ( B ) IL-8 secretion and ( C ) SGLT1, ( D ) GLUT2, ( E ) ACE2 and ( F ) TMPRSS2 mRNA expression between standard (grey) and inflamed (blue) Caco-2/TC7 cells is shown. Total RNA was extracted and reverse transcribed, and absolute copies of SGLT1, GLUT2, ACE2 or TMPRSS2 cDNA measured by ddPCR are expressed relative to the housekeeping gene TBP. For IL-8 detection, cell culture media were processed, and IL-8 measured using ELISA and corrected for total protein measured by Bradford assay. Data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 6 technical replicates from N = 3 biological replicates). Differences between cells in the standard and inflamed environments in B-F were determined by unpaired t -test with Welch’s correction; ns—not significant, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001.

    ( A ) Schematic of in-silico docking screen workflow. A panel of 48 respiratory proteases and 10 SERPINs upregulated upon viral infection were assembled. 3D structures were generated, with annotated protease active sites and SERPIN reactive center loops (RCLs). SERPIN-protease docking was performed using HADDOCK, guiding the RCL into the protease active site, and obtaining raw HADDOCK scores to reflect predicted binding energies. The dataset was normalized to the mean, and thresholds set for high-confidence in-silico binders (mean of positive controls) and high-confidence in-silico non-binders (mean of negative controls). Top-scoring complexes of interest were visually assessed for 3D RCL fit, exosite formation, and the positioning of protease active residues relative to SERPIN P4-P4’ residues.

    Inflammation upregulates SGLT1, ACE2 and TMPRSS2 in Caco-2/TC7 cells. ( A ) Graphical illustration of the experimental protocol for the standard and inflamed Caco-2/TC7 cell models. Cells were differentiated in 25 mM glucose until day 7, then in 5.5 mM glucose until day 14. Cells were differentiated for 14 days from confluence and treated with dexamethasone (DEX) or 0.1% (v/v) DMSO (vehicle control) up to twice daily for 60 h, 24 h, or 4 h. For the inflamed model, a cytokine cocktail containing IL-1β (25 ng/mL) and TNF-α (50 ng/mL) was added to the basolateral (BL) once daily for 72 h. Finally, cell culture media from both apical (AP) and BL compartments were collected from the inflamed cells for IL-8 quantification. mRNA and protein were extracted from cells in both the standard and inflamed models and analysed through ddPCR and ELISA, respectively. A comparison of ( B ) IL-8 secretion and ( C ) SGLT1, ( D ) GLUT2, ( E ) ACE2 and ( F ) TMPRSS2 mRNA expression between standard (grey) and inflamed (blue) Caco-2/TC7 cells is shown. Total RNA was extracted and reverse transcribed, and absolute copies of SGLT1, GLUT2, ACE2 or TMPRSS2 cDNA measured by ddPCR are expressed relative to the housekeeping gene TBP. For IL-8 detection, cell culture media were processed, and IL-8 measured using ELISA and corrected for total protein measured by Bradford assay. Data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 6 technical replicates from N = 3 biological replicates). Differences between cells in the standard and inflamed environments in B-F were determined by unpaired t -test with Welch’s correction; ns—not significant, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001.

    Dexamethasone upregulates TMPRSS2 mRNA expression in Caco-2/TC7 cells. The acute and chronic effect of dexamethasone (DEX) on TMPRSS2 mRNA expression was assessed in 14-day differentiated Caco-2/TC7 cells, under either standard conditions (Panel 1) or an inflamed state induced by daily exposure to IL-1β and TNF-α during the final 72 h (Panel 2). Cells were treated with DEX (5, 10, 20 µM) or 0.1% (v/v) DMSO vehicle control for different time durations: ( A, D ) 4 h, ( B, E ) 24 h and ( C, F ) 60 h. A comparison of the effect of DEX between standard (grey) and inflamed (blue) conditions is shown in Panel 3 ( G —4 h, H —24 h, I —60 h). Total RNA was extracted and reverse transcribed, and absolute copies of TMPRSS2 cDNA measured by ddPCR are expressed relative to the housekeeping gene TBP. Values represent mean fold change compared to DMSO vehicle control (Panel 1) or cytokine-treated DMSO vehicle control (Panel 2). Data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 6 technical replicates from N = 3 biological replicates). Differences were determined as follows: A, D, G —unpaired t -test with Welch’s correction; B-C, E–F —one-way ANOVA with Fisher’s LSD multiple comparisons test; H, I —two-way ANOVA with Fisher’s LSD multiple comparisons test. ns—not significant, * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001.

    ( A – C ) Schematic of fit of substrate residues into protease pockets for uPA, TMPRSS2, and cathepsin L, respectively. Substrates include zymogen self-cleavage region, canonical or previously described substrate, PAI-1 and fluorophore-linked peptide substrate used in this study. Amino acids are colored according to their side chain chemistry (Unipro UGENE): basic (R, K) litmus blue with R being more basic and darker; acidic (E, D) litmus red with more acidic being darker; hydrophobic (I, L, V, A), yellow with intensity corresponding to hydrophobic character; sulfur-containing (C, M) green; aromatic (F, Y, W) in teal; polar (N, Q, S, T) magenta/pink with darker coloring for more polarity; non-polar glycine (G) in dark gray and proline (P) in light gray. Assembled from references (Koga et al, ; Menard et al, ; Rossignol et al, ; Shrimp et al, ) and UNIPROT.
