Figure Lengend Snippet: a SARS-CoV-2 replication kinetics in HAE from different donors, HCoV-NL63 was used as a control ( n = 3). b Transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER in Ω cm 2 ) between the apical and basal poles was measured at each time point ( n = 3). c SARS-CoV-2 infected both ciliated cells (72 h pi) and secretory cells (72 h pi). arrows: virus particles, arrowhead: cilium, asterisk: secretory vesicle, insets dashed-line squares indicate magnification of arrowed areas. d Costaining of SARS-CoV-2 N protein (green) with ciliated cell marker β-tubulin-IV (red), goblet cell marker Muc5AC (red), club cell marker CCSP (red), and ACE2 (red) positive cells. HCoV-NL63 N protein (green) staining was used as a control (72 h pi). Nuclei were stained with 4’,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) (blue). Data a , b are the means ± s.d. of three independent biological replicates. Source data a – d are provided as a Source Data file.

Article Title: Limited extent and consequences of pancreatic SARS-CoV-2 infection

doi: 10.1016/j.celrep.2022.110508

Figure Lengend Snippet: Stringent ACE2 requirement for pancreatic islet cell infection with SARS-CoV-2 (A) Representative contour plots gated on live α, β, and “other” cells pre-treated with IgG (irrelevant polyclonal goat antibody AF7197) or the anti-ACE2 blocking antibody AF933 prior to SARS-CoV-2 infection (48 h). (B) Summary of SARS-CoV-2 NP expression by live islet cell subsets as a function of IgG treatment or ACE2 blockade (n = 6 donors). (C) Percent infection inhibition for β and “other” cells (inhibition for α cells is not shown because the very low extent of α cell infection in IgG-treated cultures for 2 of 6 donors substantially skews such calculations). (D) Infectious SARS-CoV-2 titers and extent of infection inhibition following ACE2 blockade (n = 3 donors). (E) Quantification of chemokines and cytokines in UV-inactivated TCS of SARS-CoV-2-infected islet cell cultures under conditions of IgG treatment or ACE2 blockade (48-h infection, n = 3 donors). (F) Infectious SARS-CoV-2 titers in TCS as a function of glucose concentration in islet culture medium (n = 3 donors). (G) Quantification of CXCL10 and CXCL11 in TCS as a function of glucose concentration. All summary bar diagrams represent mean ± SD and scatter for the indicated number of donors; statistical analyses were conducted by paired t test or repeated-measures ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons where applicable (∗, p < 0.05; ∗∗, p < 0.01; ∗∗∗, p < 0.001). All summary bar diagrams represent mean ± SD and scatter for the indicated number of donors; statistical analyses were conducted by paired t test or repeated-measures ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons where applicable.

Article Title: Characterization of ACE Inhibitors and AT 1 R Antagonists with Regard to Their Effect on ACE2 Expression and Infection with SARS-CoV-2 Using a Caco-2 Cell Model

doi: 10.3390/life11080810

Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of ACE-inhibitors and AT 1 R antagonists on ACE2 mRNA expression. Caco-2 cells were incubated with ACE-inhibitors, AT 1 R antagonists, or vehicle in the indicated concentrations and time points. The mRNA expression was determined using quantitative PCR, normalized to β-actin and drug-treated samples were related to the vehicle treated samples (control) to obtain the fold induction. The experiment was achieved in three biological and three technical replicates. The means of three technical replicates are shown and used for statistical analysis (two-way ANOVA with Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test). * p < 0.01 show statistically significant difference between drug-treated and vehicle-treated samples.

doi: 10.3390/life11080810

Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of ACE-inhibitors and AT 1 R antagonists on ACE2 protein expression. Caco-2 cells were incubated with ACE-inhibitors, AT 1 R antagonists, or vehicle in the indicated concentrations and time points. The protein expression was determined using Western blot technology, normalized to β-actin and drug-treated samples were related to non-treated samples to obtain the fold induction. The experiment was achieved in three biological replicates. Two-way ANOVA with multiple comparisons test was used to analyse statistical difference between drug-treated and vehicle-treated samples.
