Regulatory T cell-like response to SARS-CoV-2 in Jamaican fruit bats (Artibeus jamaicensis) transduced with human ACE2. by Bradly Burke, Savannah M Rocha, Shijun Zhan, Miles Eckley, Clara Reasoner, Amin Addetia, Juliette Lewis, Anna Fagre, Phillida A Charley, Juergen A Richt, Susan R Weiss, Ronald B Tjalkens, David Veesler, Tawfik Aboellail, Tony Schountz

“…CD4+ helper T cells became activated upon ex vivo recall stimulation with SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid peptide library and exhibited elevated mRNA expression of the regulatory T cell cytokines interleukin-10 and transforming growth factor-β, which may have limited inflammatory pathology. Collectively, these data show that Jamaican fruit bats are poorly susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 but that expression of human ACE2 in their lungs leads to robust infection and an adaptive immune response with low-titer antibodies and a regulatory T cell-like response that may explain the lack of prominent inflammation in the lungs. …”
