ABSTRACT
There is a paucity of human models to study immune-mediated host damage. Here, we utilized the GeoMx spatial multi-omics platform to analyze immune cell changes in COVID-19 pancreatic autopsy samples, revealing an accumulation of proinflammatory macrophages. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis of human islets exposed to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) or coxsackievirus B4 (CVB4) viruses identified activation of proinflammatory macrophages and ß cell pyroptosis. To distinguish viral versus proinflammatory-macrophage-mediated ß cell pyroptosis, we developed human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived vascularized macrophage-islet (VMI) organoids. VMI organoids exhibited enhanced marker expression and function in both ß cells and endothelial cells compared with separately cultured cells. Notably, proinflammatory macrophages within VMI organoids induced ß cell pyroptosis. Mechanistic investigations highlighted TNFSF12-TNFRSF12A involvement in proinflammatory-macrophage-mediated ß cell pyroptosis. This study established hPSC-derived VMI organoids as a valuable tool for studying immune-cell-mediated host damage and uncovered the mechanism of ß cell damage during viral exposure.
