SARS-CoV-2 is a newly emerged beta-coronavirus that enter cells via two routes, direct fusion at the plasma membrane or endocytosis followed by fusion with the late endosome/lysosome. While the viral receptor, ACE2, multiple entry factors, and the mechanism of fusion of the virus at the plasma membrane have been extensively investigated, viral entry via the endocytic pathway is less understood. By using a human hepatocarcinoma cell line, Huh-7, which is resistant to the antiviral action of the TMPRSS2 inhibitor camostat, we discovered that SARS-CoV-2 entry is not dependent on dynasore but dependent on cholesterol. ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6) has been described as a host factor for SARS-CoV2 replication and it is involved in the entry and infection of several pathogenic viruses. By CRISPR-Cas9 genetic deletion, we found that ARF6 is important for SARS-CoV-2 uptake and infection in Huh-7. In addition, the ARF6 inhibitor NAV-2729, and the ARF6 agonist AA147, showed a dose-responsive inhibition or enhancement of viral infection, respectively. Importantly, ARF6 inhibition reduced SARS-CoV-2 viral loads also in more physiologic models of infection: Calu-3 and kidney organoids, suggesting a role also in post-entry steps. Together, these experiments points to a ARF6 as a putative target to develop antiviral strategies against SARS-CoV-2.
