摘要
丙型肝炎病毒(Hepatitis C Virus,HCV)非结构蛋白NS4B的功能仍不很清楚。本实验旨在研究NS4B对干扰素介导的抗病毒反应的影响。建立稳定表达NS4B的细胞系后,用空斑实验研究NS4B在不同浓度的IFN_α下对水泡口炎病毒(VSV)的影响,利用代表2308个信号传导相关的基因的微点阵研究其对细胞基因表达的影响,和流式细胞仪分析IFNGR1的荧光强度。结果显示HCV_NS4B能微弱地抑制IFN_α介导的抗病毒反应,可能原因是HCV_NS4B抑制一些与免疫反应相关的基因的表达,特别是与IFN_γ信号传导有关的基因。因此,NS4B对HCV耐受干扰素治疗起一定的作用。
The function of NS4B is incompletely understood. The aim of the study is to understand the influence of NS4B on anti-viral response. After cell line stably expressing NS4B established, the influence of IFN-αof different concentration on VSV was studied using plaque assay; cell expression profiling caused by NS4B was studied using DNA microarray, and the IFNGR1 fluorescence intensity was analyzed. Our data showed that HCV-NS4B could suppress immunoassociated gene expression, in particular, IFN-γreceptor signal transduction-related genes. Taken together, NS4B could play some roles in HCV resistance to IFN therapy.
