Embodiment

[0078] Virus : SARS-CoV strain HKU39849 and MERS-CoV isolate HCoV-EMC / 2012 by Ron Fouchier 27 supply. Viruses were grown in VeroE6 cells (obtained in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM)) supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (FCS) and 100 units / ml penicillin + 100 μg / ml streptomycin (1% PS) Breeding from ATCC). All studies were performed according to Biosafety Level 3 practices.

[0079] by TCID 50 Experimental virus titration: The 50% tissue culture infectious dose (TCID) of MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV in VeroE6 cells was determined by observing the cytopathic effect (CPE). 50 ) / ml. Briefly, cells were 5 x 10 in 150 μl of DMEM 4 Cells / well density were plated in 96-well plates. virus in DMEM from 10 3 to 10 14 Serial dilutions were made by half log. One hundred microliters of each dilution was added per well; and the plates were observed daily for 5 consecutive days for CPE.

[0080] cell culture : HK-2 cells (obtained from ATCC) were cultured in DMEM / F12 med...

Abstract

Methods for treating, diagnosing, and providing prognostic information for kidney disease related to MERS-CoV infection are described. Transcription and translation products (for example, mRNA or peptides) of FGF2, Smad7, and / or sequences upstream of FGF2 are useful as markers that indicate kidney disease and / or provide prognostic information related to the course of kidney disease related to MERS-CoV infection. Such kidney disease can be treated and / or mitigated by reducing the availability of FGF2, Smad7, and / or a sequence upstream from FGF2 by reducing and / or regulating transcription and bysequestering related peptides using a large molecule binding partner, such as an antibody. Sequences for useful siRNAs and antisense oligonucleotides are provided.
