Figure Legend Snippet: NLRP3 inflammasome activation dictates permissiveness of epithelial cells to SARS-CoV-2 infection. (A-D) Caco-2 (A, B) or ACE2-A549 (C, D) cells were infected with SARS-CoV-2 for 48 hours at indicated MOI (A, C) or during indicated hours post-infection (hpi) (MOI = 4) (B, D) and IL-1β secretion was monitored. E ACE2-A549 cells were infected during 48 hours with SARS-CoV-2 or with SARS-CoV-2 neutralized with convalescent COVID-19 patient serum. IL-1β secretion was then monitored. (F, G) Caco-2 (F) and ACE2-A549 (G) cells were infected (or not) with SARS-CoV-2 (MOI = 2) during 48 hours in presence of indicated concentrations of Tranilast and evaluated for Spike (S) and β-actin expressions. (H, I) Caco-2 (H) or ACE2-A549 (I) cells were infected for 48 hours with SARS-CoV-2 (MOI = 0.2) in presence of 100 µM Tranilast, and analyzed for SARS-CoV-2 E RNA expression using quantitative RT-PCR. Fold changes (FC) are indicated. (J, K) ACE2-A549 cells were infected for 48 hours with SARS-CoV-2 (MOI = 2) in presence of 20 µM MCC950, 100 µM Tranilast or with SARS-CoV-2 neutralized with convalescent COVID-19 patient serum and analyzed for spike (S) expression by fluorescence microscopy. Representative images (bar, 20 µm) (J) and percentages of spike (S)-positive (S + ) cells (K) are shown. DNA is detected using Hoechst 33342. (L-O) Caco-2 (L, M) or ACE2-A549 (N, O) cells were subjected to siRNA against NLRP3 for 48 hours and analyzed for NLRP3 mRNA expression (L, N) or infected with SARS-CoV-2 for 48 hours and evaluated for SARS-CoV-2 RdRp RNA expression, by quantitative RT-PCR (M, O) . RT-PCR samples were first normalized by β-actin mRNA level in each sample, and then normalized to the control condition. The data are presented as means ± SEM from at least 3 independent experiments. p values (* p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001 and **** p < 0.0001) were determined using one-way ANOVA Tukey’s multiple comparisons test (A-E, K) and unpaired t-test (H, I, L-O) .

The data are presented as means ± SEM from at least 3 independent experiments. p values (* p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001 and **** p < 0.0001) were determined using one-way ANOVA Tukey’s multiple comparisons test (C, D) and unpaired t-test (E-G) .
