Abstract:
Objective To study the inhibitory effect of recombinant human interferon α1b (IFN-α1b) on enterovirus 71 (EV71) in vitro and to investigate the antiviral mechanism of IFN-α1b.Methods The cytotoxity of IFN-α1b and the inhibition of IFN-α1b on cytopathic effect before and after EV71 infection were measured in rhabdomyosarcoma (RD) cell line.The in vitro inhibition of IFN-α1b on EV71 RNA and VP1 protein,and the protection of IFN-α1b on EV71 infected cells were also investigated.Then the EV71 invasion prevention of IFN-α1b induced transmembrane protein IFITM3 was evaluated.Results When treated 12h before or 1h after EV71 infection,IFN-α1b presented a IC50 258.53IU/ml and 2113.58IU/ml with SI>16497 and >3271,respectively,suggesting that IFN-α1b had obvious anti EV71 activity,and IFN-α1b treatment before EV71 infection was more effective.This study also showed that IFN-α1b significantly inhibited EV71 RNA replication and protein synthesis,and delayed the progeny virus release,which might prevent EV71 invasion by inducing IFITM3 expression.Conclusion IFN-α1b has anti EV71 activity and can act as an antiviral agent by influencing the viral life cycle including invasion,replication,assembly and release.
