The development of coronavirus infection outbreak into a pandemic, coupled with the lack of effective COVID-19 therapies, is a challenge for the entire pharmaceutical industry. This study aimed to assess the treatment and preventive efficacy of the amino acid-peptide complex (APC) in male Syrian hamsters infected with SARS-CoV-2 (intranasal administration of 26 |l of the virus culture, titer of 4 x 104 TCD50/ml). In a modeled COVID-19 case, APC administered for treatment and preventive purposes reduced lung damage. Compared to the positive control group, test group had the lung weight factor 15.2% smaller (trend), which indicates a less pronounced edema. Microscopic examination revealed no alveolar edema, atypical hypertrophied forms of type II alveolocytes, pulmonary parenchyma fibrinization. The macrophage reaction intensified, which is probably a result of the APC-induced activation of regenerative processes in the lung tissues. Spleens of the animals that received APC for therapeutic and preventive purposes were less engorged and had fewer hemorrhages. The decrease of body weight of the test animals that received APC for treatment and prevention was insignificant (p < 0.05), which indicates a less severe course of COVID-19. Administered following a purely therapeutic protocol, APC proved ineffective against SARS-CoV-2 post-infection. Thus, APC-based drug used as a therapeutic and preventive agent reduces pulmonary edema and makes morphological signs of lung tissue damage less pronounced in male Syrian hamsters infected with SARS-CoV-2.

Распространение коронавирусной инфекции до масштабов мировой пандемии и отсутствие эффективных средств патогенетической терапии COVID-19 являются вызовом для всей фармакологической отрасли. Целью данной работы было оценить эффективность лечебно-профилактического применения аминокислотно-пептидного комплекса (АПК) на самцах сирийских хомяков, подвергнутых заражению SARS-CoV-2 интраназальным введением 26 мкл культуры вируса титром 4 x 104 ТЦД50/мл. Лечебно-профилактическое применение АПК позволяет снизить поражение легких при моделировании COVID-19. Меньший, по сравнению с группой положительного контроля, на 15,2% (тенденция) весовой коэффициент легких свидетельствует о менее выраженном их отеке. Результаты микроскопического исследования показали отсутствие альвеолярного отека, атипичных гипертрофированных форм альвеолоцитов II типа, фибринизации легочной паренхимы. Отмечено усиление макрофагальной реакции, которое, вероятно, является отражением активации АПК регенераторных процессов в тканях легких. В селезенке животных, получавших АПК в лечебно-профилактических целях, выявлена меньшая степень гиперемии с участками кровоизлияний. Отсутствие статистически значимой p < 0,05) отрицательной динамики массы тела при лечебно-профилактическом применении АПК отражает снижение общей тяжести течения заболевания COVID-19. Использование АПК по лечебной схеме после заражения SARS-CoV-2 оказалось неэффективным. Таким образом, применение препарата на основе АПК в качестве лечебно-профилактического средства вызывает снижение отека легких и уменьшение морфологических признаков повреждения легочной ткани у самцов сирийских хомяков, подвергнутых заражению SARS-CoV-2.

Despite all the quarantine measures taken, at the turn of 20192020 SARS-CoV-2, a coronavirus causing COVID-19, quickly spread through the Chinese provinces first and then all around the world. According to the World Health Organization, by March 2020 coronavirus infection reached proportions of a pandemic.
According to the published literature, the "gateway" for SARS-CoV-2 infection are cells expressing angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptors: respiratory tract epithelium, alveolocytes, vascular endothelium, epithelium of the gastrointestinal tract, myocardium and some parts of the central nervous system [1]. The virus replicates in type II alveolocytes, the replication producing a large number of viral particles. Apoptosis of the affected cells disrupts the pulmonary ventilation and perfusion processes, promotes accumulation of fluid in the alveoli and causes diffuse damage thereof [2].
Joint research effort by scientists from many countries yielded successful development of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines [3], which, provided the vaccination campaigns are large-scale, will significantly reduce the number of severe and fatal cases. However, the question of development of effective and safe medications preventing COVID-19 progression into life-threatening forms remains urgent [4]. Current research and development efforts focus on innovative and cost-effective therapies relying on monoclonal antibodies that would reduce the risk of development of COVID-19 complications [5, 6], as well as on the new approaches to suppress the cytokine storm with the help of opioid peptides that inhibit expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines by immune cells through suppression of translocation of the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) active dimer [7].
Syrian hamster is the most suitable and accessible experimental model that can be used for preclinical assessment of the efficacy of pharmaceutical drugs against respiratory dysfunction that develops as part of COVID-19 course [8]. Infected with SARS-CoV-2, these animals exhibit clinical picture, viral kinetics, histopathological changes and immune responses very similar to those registered in coronavirus patients [9]. During the first week after infection, the animals had pronounced clinical signs of COVID-19. Rapid respiration and weight loss accompanied histopathological changes, from the initial exudative phase of diffuse damage to the alveoli and extensive apoptosis to a later proliferative phase of tissue repair. There was also registered spleen atrophy, which is probably associated with pronounced activation of cytokines [10].
Since the main causes of death in COVID-19 cases are pulmonary edema, pneumonia and respiratory failure resulting from the virus affecting alveolar cells in the lung's respiratory parts, it seems appropriate to conduct a preclinical study of the drug based on the amino acid-peptide complex (APC) that proved to have an anti-edema effect in an ex vivo pilot study involving isolated rat lungs. The protective effect manifested in slower (1.5 times) increase of the isolated lung-heart complex mass in the test group compared to the control group (p < 0.05),
the rate measured during 90-minute perfusion, which reflects the rate and degree of development of pulmonary edema [11].
Thus, the purpose of this work was to assess the efficacy of application of the experimental APC for therapeutic and therapeutic and preventive purposes in the male Syrian hamster COVID-19 model.
METHODS
SARS-CoV-2 was isolated from a clinical sample obtained from a sick patient. The oropharyngeal swab was collected into a 15 mm tube with DMEM medium (Lonza; Switzerland) without serum and transported to the laboratory. The sample was filtered through a 0.2 pm syringe filter on the same day. The virus was isolated and accumulated on a Vero (B) cell culture (BiolT; Russia) in EMEM medium with L-glutasin (BiolT; Russia) with 2% of fetal bovine serum (BiolT; Russia) and 1% of antibiotic-antimycotics (Gibco; USA). After each passage employing the real-time polymerase chain reaction reverse transcription method (RT-PCR-RT), we determined the presence of the virus and its titer growth against the original sample with the help of the commercially available Detection Kit for 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) RNA (PCR-Fluorescence Probing) (Sun Yat-sen University; China). Having analyzed the virus nucleotide sequence, we established it belonged to GR subclass. The infectious activity of SARS-CoV-2 was determined on a Vero (B) cell culture in 96-well plates; the tissue culture infective dose (TCID) was established with the help of the Reed-Muench method [12]. The animals were infected with viral culture of the fifth passage, the titer of which was 4 x 104 TCDm/ml. The virus was introduced
50
intranasally, with a mechanical Eppendorf dispenser, 13 pL into each nostril followed by a controlled inhale.
The test animals were outbred male golden Syrian hamsters Mesocricetus auratus aged 4-6 weeks (body weight of 80-100 g), obtained from the nursery of ZAO NPO Dom farmacii (St. Petersburg). The animals were kept in conditions prescribed by the Directive 2010/63/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of the European Union of September 22, 2010 (on protection of animals used for scientific purposes) [13]. The controlled parameters were room microclimate (temperature, humidity, air exchange rate), quality of feed and bedding material. The animals were on a standard diet; the feed was formed into pellets. As for the lighting, 12 hours were daytime and 12 hours nighttime.
After randomization by body weight, the animals were divided into four experimental groups (n = 10).
Group 1, negative control: daily intragastric (i/g) administration of APC, dose — 75 mg/kg, duration — 7 days.
Group 2, positive control: single administration of SARS-CoV-2.
Group 3, treatment and prevention protocol: daily intragastric (i/g) administration of APC, dose — 75 mg/kg, duration — 7 days; eighth day of the experiment — infection of the animals with SARS-CoV-2.

Group 4, treatment protocol: infection of hamsters with SARS-CoV-2 followed by APC administration in the course of 7 days.
After the infection with SARS-CoV-2, the animals were observed twice a day for signs of COVID-19 (ruffled fur, hunched posture, shortness of breath, anorexia, lethargy) [14]. Body weights were recorded once a day through the study period.
On the eighth day after infection with SARS-CoV-2, all animals were euthanized by an overdose of general anesthetic (Xila, 20.0 mg/ml and Zoletil 100, 50.0 mg/ml, 1 : 1 ratio, 1.0 ml per 1.0 kg of body weight, intramuscularly). Subsequently, their internal organs (lungs, heart, spleen) were taken out for the purposes of assessing the mass ratio (the ratio of the mass of the organ (mg) to the total mass (g)) and pathomorphological analysis.
The internal organs were fixed in formalin (10%). Tissue-Tek VIP closed cycle histology processor (Sakura; Japan) enabled organ dehydration and degreasing, and Tissue-Tek TEC paraffin station (Sakura; Japan) was used to embedded them in paraffin. The fixed sections 5 pm thick were made with the help of Accu-Cut SRM 200 rotary microtome (Sakura; Japan). Histological sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin, picrofuchsin for connective tissue (Van Gieson's stain), Weigert's elastic stain for fibrin. The nucleic acids were identified with pyronine and methyl green stains (Brachet method). The prepared histological sections were analyzed with the help of Axioskop 40 microscope (Carl Zeiss; Germany) with a ProgRes CFscan color digital camera (Carl Zeiss; Germany) relying on special software to video document the results obtained.
GraphPad Prism 5.04 software (GraphPad Software; USA) enabled statistical processing. With the data distribution among the paired samples being normal, comparison relied on the Student's f-test. When the distribution of data was different from normal, the Wilcoxon test for paired samples was used. The intergroup differences were assessed with

RESULTS
The experiment established that animals of groups 2 and 4, which were infected with SARS-CoV-2, statistically significantly lose body weight compared to the animals of the control group
I (Table 1). The reduction of weight of the group 3 animals, which received APC under the treatment and prevention protocol, was not statistically significant.
All experimental groups had the lung mass ratio increasing to values significantly greater than those registered in the negative control group (APC), but in group 3 (treatment and prevention protocol) this increase was the least pronounced (Table 2). In addition, group 3 animals had their spleen mass ratio decreased significantly.
Pathomorphological analysis of the lungs of group 1 animals revealed a few areas of alveolar hemorrhage and atelectasis in three samples out of five. In addition, it was established that perivascular infiltrates were of predominantly lymphocytic composition. The changes were regarded as spontaneous pathology caused by euthanasia.
Microscopic examination of lung parenchyma revealed that all test animals of group 2 had diffuse alveolar lesions manifested by intra-alveolar edema with an admixture of erythrocytes, macrophages, desquamated damaged alveocytes, lymphocytes (Fig. 1A) and alveolar hemorrhages. Vascular lesions were characterized by thrombosis, perivascular edema and polymorphic cell infiltrates, plasmatization of interalveolar septa and walls of small vessels (Fig. 1B). Also among the findings were hyperplasia and hypertrophy of type
II alveolocytes, with pneumocytes of atypical irregular shape and enlarged nuclei and nucleoli (Fig. 2A). Brachet staining allowed a clearer visualization of atypical forms of alveolocytes (Fig. 2B).

In two test animals of group 2 the lungs had fibroblast proliferation foci with developing tissue granulation. The fibrin in lung parenchyma (discovered with Weigert stain) was diffused (Fig. 3A, B).
In group 3 (treatment and prevention protocol), four our of five animals had their pathomorphological picture characterized by the absence of alveolar pulmonary edema. Microscopy of the lungs revealed peribronchial and perivascular infiltrates, areas of microbleeds in the lung parenchyma (three out of five animals). In addition, hyperplasia of type II alveolocytes
and an increase in macrophage reaction were registered (Fig. 4A, B). Alveolocyte hypertrophy and atypia were observed in only one of five animals. In this group, Weigert staining of lung preparations did not reveal fibrinization of the parenchyma (see Fig. 3D).
Pathomorphological changes in the lungs of group 4 animals were largely the same as the destructive changes in the lung parenchyma of group 2 animals.
The analysis of histological preparations of the heart did not reveal any morphological differences between test groups, with

Microscopic examination of the spleen revealed that the follicular structures of the white pulp and reactive centers were not changed, and the level of mitosis was same as with the control. In the red pulp of the spleen, there was an accumulation of plasmacytic cells of varying maturity; the degree of severity differed within groups (in two out of five animals in groups 1, 2 and 3, in three out of five animals in group 4). Plasmacytic cells were detected by histochemical staining with methyl green and pyronine (the Brachet method). In addition, hyperemia with hemorrhage was observed in all groups, with the most pronounced changes registered in groups 2 and 4.
DISCUSSION
According to our observations, administration of the APC-based medication to Syrian hamsters under the treatment and prevention protocol makes the course of the disease less severe, the alleviation manifesting in smaller weight loss, which is considered an integral indicator characterizing general condition of the body infected with SARS-CoV-2. The body weight loss trend observed in hamsters receiving APC is probably connected with its stimulating effect on energy metabolism and activation of catabolic processes [15].
The lung mass ratio decrease shows that the edema grows less pronounced, which confirms the previous assumption of the studied drug's decongestant effect revealed on the isolated lungs model [11]. This effect may be the result of the APC-based medication's ability to limit permeability of the blood-air barrier through support of the cells' metabolism by active components of the drug and regulation of the glucose uptake by direct translocation of the GLUT family transporters to plasma membrane, which makes the medication a promising remedy for mitochondrial dysfunction [15].
Pathomorphological examination of the lungs showed that a single intranasal administration of 26 pl SARS-CoV-2 solution (virus titer 4 x 104 TCD50/ml) triggered COVID-19 in
Syrian hamsters, the disease manifesting in diffuse alveolar lung damage with vascular lesions, which associates with its early exudative stage [16].
Pathomorphological analysis allowed determining the main criteria for evaluation of the lung preparations: presence of alveolar edema, intraalveolar hemorrhages, hyperplasia, hypertrophy and atypia of type II alveolocytes, proliferation of fibroblasts, lung parenchyma vascular lesions (perivascular edema, infiltrates), thrombi, etc.
The comparative pathomorphological evaluation of the lungs of SARS-CoV-2-infected animals that received APC-based drug under the treatment and prevention protocol (group 3) and group 2 animals (positive control) revealed certain differences in histopathological changes. Group 3 animals had no alveolar edema, atypical and hypertrophied forms of type II alveolocytes, lung parenchyma fibrinization. All animals of this group exhibited reinforced macrophage response, which, most likely, reflects activation of regenerative processes in the lungs.
Pathomorphological analysis of histological preparations of lungs, heart and spleen of group 4 animals (received APC-based drug under the treatment protocol) revealed pulmonary edema, hemorrhages, hypertrophy and atypia of alveolocytes, vascular damage. The nature of the destructive changes identified generally corresponded to that found in group 2 animals.
Administration of the APC under the treatment protocol did not have a significant effect on the course of the infectious process. The established fact corresponds to the literature data on the greater effectiveness of certain pharmacological agents when they are used for COVID-19 prevention rather than therapy, which may be associated with the virulence of SARS-CoV-2, its high replication rate and rapid development of clinical manifestations of the disease [17, 18].
CONCLUSIONS
APC-based drug used as a therapeutic and preventive agent reduces pulmonary edema and makes morphological signs of lung tissue damage less pronounced in male Syrian hamsters infected with SARS-CoV-2.
