Suppression of SARS-CoV-2 infection in ex-vivo human lung tissues by targeting class III phosphoinositide 3-kinase
© 2020 Wiley Periodicals LLC..
The novel betacoronavirus severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) emerged at the end of 2019 and caused the coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) pandemic due to its high transmissibility and early immunosuppression. Previous studies on other betacoronaviruses suggested that betacoronavirus infection is associated with the host autophagy pathway. However, it is unclear whether any components of autophagy or virophagy can be therapeutic targets for COVID-19 treatment. In this report, we examined the antiviral effect of four well-characterized small molecule inhibitors that target the key cellular factors involved in key steps of the autophagy pathway. They include small molecules targeting the ULK1/Atg1 complex involved in the induction stage of autophagy (ULK1 inhibitor SBI0206965), the ATG14/Beclin1/VPS34 complex involved in the nucleation step of autophagy (class III PI3-kinase inhibitor VPS34-IN1), and a widely-used autophagy inhibitor that persistently inhibits class I and temporary inhibits class III PI3-kinase (3-MA) and a clinically approved autophagy inhibitor that suppresses autophagy by inhibiting lysosomal acidification and prevents the formation of autophagolysosome (HCQ). Surprisingly, not all the tested autophagy inhibitors suppressed SARS-CoV-2 infection. We showed that inhibition of class III PI3-kinase involved in the initiation step of both canonical and noncanonical autophagy potently suppressed SARS-CoV-2 at a nano-molar level. In addition, this specific kinase inhibitor VPS34-IN1, and its bioavailable analogue VVPS34-IN1, potently inhibited SARS-CoV-2 infection in ex vivo human lung tissues. Taken together, class III PI3-kinase may be a possible target for COVID-19 therapeutic development.
