Abstract

Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)-like WIV1-coronavirus (CoV) was first isolated from Rhinolophus sinicus bats and can use the human angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor. In the current study, we investigate the ability of WIV1-CoV to infect Rousettus aegyptiacus bats. No clinical signs were observed throughout the experiment. Furthermore, only four oropharyngeal swabs and two respiratory tissues, isolated on day 3 post inoculation, were found positive for viral RNA. Two out of twelve bats showed a modest increase in coronavirus specific antibodies post challenge. In conclusion, WIV1-CoV was unable to cause a robust infection in Rousettus aegyptiacus bats.

<abstract>
<p>Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)-like WIV1-coronavirus (CoV) was first isolated from
<italic>Rhinolophus sinicus</italic>
bats and can use the human angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor. In the current study, we investigate the ability of WIV1-CoV to infect
<italic>Rousettus aegyptiacus</italic>
bats. No clinical signs were observed throughout the experiment. Furthermore, only four oropharyngeal swabs and two respiratory tissues, isolated on day 3 post inoculation, were found positive for viral RNA. Two out of twelve bats showed a modest increase in coronavirus specific antibodies post challenge. In conclusion, WIV1-CoV was unable to cause a robust infection in
<italic>Rousettus aegyptiacus</italic>
bats.</p>

<title>1. Introduction</title>
<p>Emerging infectious diseases form a significant threat to the human population. The natural history of viruses in animal reservoirs and their ability to infect the human host is important to predict the risk of spillover events and subsequent epidemics. The World Health Organization has identified a list of top emerging diseases likely to cause major epidemics. The list includes severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV), which caused a pandemic in 2002–2003 [
<xref rid="B1-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
]. SARS-CoV is hypothesized to originate from
<italic>Rhinolophus sinicus</italic>
bats since several SARS-like viruses have been detected in this host [
<xref rid="B2-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
,
<xref rid="B3-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
]. However, most SARS-like viruses from bats do not bind the human receptor, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). For example, a recombinant virus based on a consensus sequence of SARS-like viruses from bats could not be cultured unless a part of the spike protein was exchanged with SARS-CoV spike protein [
<xref rid="B4-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
]. This suggests that a substantial portion of the SARS-like viruses circulating in bats cannot infect humans directly.</p>
<p>In 2013, Ge et al. isolated a SARS-like virus from the Chinese horseshoe bat (
<italic>Rhinolophus sinicus</italic>
): WIV1-CoV [
<xref rid="B5-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
], which can use human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), the receptor for SARS-CoV, in vitro and transgenic mice [
<xref rid="B6-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
]. This suggests WIV1-CoV may be able to directly transmit from bats to humans. In order to understand the relationship between coronaviruses and their bat hosts, experimental animal models are needed. Unfortunately, most bat species are difficult to obtain for laboratory experiments and most of these species have poorly annotated genomes. These limitations have posed a challenge in the field and explain a current deficit in the literature. In 2010, one group inoculated Leschenault’s rousette bats (
<italic>Rousettus leschenaultia</italic>
) with a homogenate of Betacoronavirus (clade b)-positive intestinal tissues obtained from a lesser short-nosed fruit bat (
<italic>Cynopterus brachyotis</italic>
). No clinical signs were observed, but viral RNA was detected in both fecal samples and intestinal tissue [
<xref rid="B7-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
]. Likewise, no clinical signs were observed following intranasal and intraperitoneal inoculation of Jamaican fruit bats (
<italic>Artibeus jamaicensis</italic>
) with Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS)-CoV. However, shedding of viral RNA was detected in oral and rectal swabs, and a variety of different tissues tested positive for viral RNA [
<xref rid="B8-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
]. Together, these studies suggest that bats might show limited clinical signs when infected with coronaviruses but will continue to shed the virus.</p>
<p>In this study, we investigate the ability of WIV1-CoV to infect and replicate in
<italic>Rousettus aegyptiacus</italic>
bats.</p>

<title>3. Results</title>
<p>Because variation in ACE2 has been shown to act as a host species barrier [
<xref rid="B10-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
], we first tested if WIV1 spike could interact with Egyptian fruit bat ACE2. Single-cycle VSV luciferase reporter particles were generated with FLAG-tagged MERS-CoV, SARS-CoV or WIV1 spike (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="viruses-10-00727-f001">Figure 1</xref>
A). All three coronavirus spike proteins incorporated into VSV reporter particles (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="viruses-10-00727-f001">Figure 1</xref>
B). While MERS-CoV spike could only mediate entry into cells expressing DPP4, both SARS-CoV and WIV1 spikes mediated entry into cells expressing human and Egyptian fruit bat ACE2 (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="viruses-10-00727-f001">Figure 1</xref>
C). Furthermore, transfection of BHK cells with either human or Egyptian fruit bat ACE2 and subsequent infection with WIV1-CoV resulted in virus replication as measured in supernatant at 48 h post infection (hpi), whereas no virus replication could be found in BHK cells not transfected with ACE2 (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="viruses-10-00727-f001">Figure 1</xref>
D). Taken together, these data show that WIV1 spike can effectively utilize ACE2 from Egyptian fruit bats for entry and infection.</p>
<p>To confirm ACE2 expression in the organs of the Egyptian fruit bats, specific staining for ACE2 was performed on nasal turbinates, trachea, lung, kidney, stomach, and intestinal tissues. ACE2 expression was identified multifocally within the nasal turbinates, apical olfactory epithelium, serous submucosal glands, and pars nervosa of the pituitary gland. Cytoplasmic endothelial cell immunoreactivity was found in lung and stomach tissue. The kidney showed expression multifocally within interstitial capillaries and parietal epithelium. Intestinal tissue showed a bright diffuse immunoreactivity at the brush border (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="viruses-10-00727-f002">Figure 2</xref>
). Together, the staining suggests necessary receptor expression to produce infection with WIV1-CoV in Egyptian fruit bats.</p>
<p>Twelve Egyptian fruit bats were inoculated via the intranasal, intratracheal and intra-esophageal route with 10
<sup>5</sup>
TCID
<sub>50</sub>
of WIV1-CoV. These bats were observed daily for 14 days for any clinical signs. Their body weight and temperature were measured every day. None of the bats showed signs of disease such as respiratory distress, anorexia or lethargy. No significant body weight loss or changes in body temperature were detected throughout the experiment (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="viruses-10-00727-f003">Figure 3</xref>
A,B).</p>
<p>Rectal, urogenital and oropharyngeal swabs were taken daily for six days and tested for the presence of viral RNA. Viral RNA could not be detected in rectal or urogenital swabs at any time point. However, on days 1 and 3 post inoculation (dpi) viral RNA was detected in the oropharyngeal swabs of three bats and one bat, respectively (between 100–300 copies/mL,
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="viruses-10-00727-f003">Figure 3</xref>
C).</p>
<p>Four bats each were necropsied on 3, 7, and 28 dpi. No postmortem gross pathological lesions were identified during necropsy. For each bat, the weight of the lungs was measured, and lung/body weight ratios were calculated. When comparing the lung/body weight ratios between animals taken on different days, no significant differences could be found (Student’s

<xref ref-type="fig" rid="viruses-10-00727-f003">Figure 3</xref>
D).</p>
<p>Multiple organ systems were examined histopathologically and were essentially normal with a few exceptions. All 12 bats had marked severe vacuolar change (glycogen-type) within the liver. The cause of this liver change was not identified but may be related to diet or stress. Six of the bats had minimal–moderate numbers of Kupffer cells in the liver containing a brown granular intracytoplasmic pigment predominately in the portal areas which are positive for Prussian Blue staining and consistent with excessive iron deposition. Seven bats had minimal–moderate numbers of lymphohistiocytic nodules within the pulmonary parenchyma. None of these histopathological changes were associated with coronavirus replication or immunohistochemistry suggesting that this was background pathology.</p>
<p>RNA was extracted from harvested tissues and analyzed for the presence of the host and viral RNA. Host RNA could be detected in all samples. Viral RNA was only detected in tissues obtained from animals necropsied on 3 dpi and was limited to the pharynx (
<italic>N</italic>

<italic>N</italic>
= 1) (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="viruses-10-00727-f003">Figure 3</xref>
E). Subsequently, the full skull, as well as cervical lymph nodes, lung, spleen, and liver tissue, were stained for WIV1-CoV antigen using a SARS NP-specific antibody. All tissues were negative as determined by immunohistochemistry.</p>
<p>Complete blood cell counts of four bats on each day of necropsy were compared to values obtained pre-challenge (two values per bat, 23 values in total). No abnormal values were detected in the levels of white blood cells, neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils or basophils (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="viruses-10-00727-f004">Figure 4</xref>
). We hypothesize that the observed lymphopenia is stress-related, and not associated with viral infection.</p>
<p>The presence of antibodies was investigated using an ELISA, based on SARS-CoV S or N protein, and expressed as the highest dilution of sera that resulted in an OD > 0.2. Interestingly, sera obtained before challenge from several bats showed reactivity with SARS S or N (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="viruses-10-00727-f005">Figure 5</xref>
). We compared the ELISA titer in sera obtained before and after challenge. Only two bats (bat #6 and #11) showed a significant increase in ELISA titer. No WIV1-CoV-neutralizing antibodies were detected in the sera as determined via virus neutralization assay. </p>

<title>4. Discussion</title>
<p>In the present study, we investigated whether Egyptian fruit bats (
<italic>Rousettus aegyptiacus</italic>
) are susceptible to infection by SARS-like WIV1-CoV, originally detected in Chinese rufous horseshoe bats. The first step in host susceptibility to coronaviruses is associated with the ability to bind to host-specific receptors and the availability of these receptors on target organs. SARS-CoV S1 binds less efficiently to murine ACE2 than human ACE2, and thus wildtype mice are a suboptimal SARS-CoV animal model [
<xref rid="B10-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
]. Upon expression of Egyptian fruit bat ACE2 on non-susceptible BHK cells, WIV1-CoV was able to enter and replicate, demonstrating that ACE2 from Egyptian fruit bats is a suitable receptor. However, while ACE2 was expressed in bat intestine and respiratory tract tissue, similar to humans [
<xref rid="B11-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
], we observed very limited evidence of virus replication and seroconversion. Taken together, these data demonstrate that WIV1-CoV restriction in the Egyptian fruit bat was not at the receptor level. However, in this study very limited evidence of virus replication or seroconversion was detected. It is currently unclear why WIV1-CoV seems unable to replicate efficiently in Egyptian fruit bats. It is possible that the WIV1-CoV S glycoprotein is not processed by surface or intracellular proteases, which have been shown to be important host restriction factors during coronavirus entry [
<xref rid="B12-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
,
<xref rid="B13-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>
]. Furthermore, a specific host factor may be required for virus transcription and replication, which could be lacking in the Egyptian fruit bats [
<xref rid="B14-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
]. A recent study generated an annotated full genome for Egyptian fruit bats and used this to show greatly expanded natural killer cell receptors, MHC class I genes and type I interferons. It has been hypothesized that these factors allow greater tolerance to viral infection [
<xref rid="B15-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>
], resulting in prolonged infection but limited inflammation which has been described for Egyptian fruit bats inoculated with Marburg virus [
<xref rid="B16-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
,
<xref rid="B17-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>
]. However, as we found very limited evidence of viral RNA, it is more likely that either an enhanced antiviral response or an inability of WIV1-CoV to dampen the innate response abrogated viral replication completely. Interestingly, some of the sera collected from bats before challenge contained antibodies which cross-reacted against full-length SARS-CoV spike protein as well as nucleoprotein. As most bats were negative for SARS-specific antibodies, we were unable to detect neutralizing antibodies. This does not directly explain why we did not see extensive viral replication. A small increase in the presence of SARS-CoV-specific antibodies was observed in 2 out of 12 bats; bat #6 showed an increase in N-specific antibodies, bat #11 showed an increase in S-specific antibodies. These findings suggest that some low-level virus replication might have occurred in these bats, resulting in an adaptive immune response.</p>
<p>We observed cleavage of MERS S glycoprotein in our pseudotypes, whereas neither SARS S or WIV1 S glycoprotein were cleaved. This matches closely to what has been reported on proteolytic activation of MERS S and SARS S glycoprotein and further supports the validity of the use of pseudotypes. Whereas MERS S glycoprotein is processed by host proprotein convertases in virus-producing cells before virus-cell entry [
<xref rid="B18-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
], SARS S glycoprotein processing by these convertases is absent or inefficient [
<xref rid="B19-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>
]. Our results suggest that like SARS S glycoprotein, WIV1 S glycoprotein does not get cleaved by host proprotein convertases.</p>
<p>The obtained results suggest that the ability to infect and replicate efficiently is bat species-specific, and limited inferences can be made from non-matched host-pathogen systems. This has been observed with filoviruses as well. Marburg virus replicates efficiently in Egyptian fruit bats, which are the natural reservoir. However, other filoviruses, such as Ebola virus, hardly replicate in the Egyptian fruit bats [
<xref rid="B16-viruses-10-00727" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
]. Therefore, it would be interesting to perform an experimental inoculation study using Chinese horseshoe bats, from which WIV1-CoV was originally isolated, to investigate if more efficient virus replication and shedding can be observed in these animals.</p>
<p>In conclusion, we were unable to detect efficient replication of WIV1-CoV in Egyptian fruit bats and observed modest seroconversion in 2 out of 12 bats. Our findings add to the current understanding of the intricate relationship between specific bat species and their coronaviruses.</p>
