The JAK2 inhibitor AZD1480 has been reported to inhibit La protein expression. We previously demonstrated that the inhibition of La expression could inhibit hepatitis A virus (HAV) internal ribosomal entry-site (IRES)-mediated translation and HAV replication in vitro. In this study, we analyzed the effects of AZD1480 on HAV IRES-mediated translation and replication. HAV IRES-mediated translation in COS7-HAV-IRES cells was inhibited by 0.1-1 μM AZD1480, a dosage that did not affect cell viability. Results showed a significant reduction in intracellular HAV HA11-1299 genotype IIIA RNA levels in Huh7 cells treated with AZD1480. Furthermore, AZD1480 inhibited the expression of phosphorylated-(Tyr-705)-signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and La in Huh7 cells. Therefore, we propose that AZD1480 can inhibit HAV IRES activity and HAV replication through the inhibition of the La protein.
据报道,JAK2抑制剂AZD1480可抑制La蛋白表达。我们之前证明,抑制La表达可在体外抑制甲型肝炎病毒(HAV)内部核糖体进入位点(IRES)介导的翻译及HAV复制。在本研究中,我们分析了AZD1480对HAV IRES介导的翻译和复制的影响。在COS7-HAV-IRES细胞中,0.1-1μM的AZD1480可抑制HAV IRES介导的翻译,该剂量不影响细胞活力。结果显示,用AZD1480处理的Huh7细胞中,细胞内HAV HA11-1299 IIIA型基因型RNA水平显著降低。此外,AZD1480可抑制Huh7细胞中磷酸化-(酪氨酸-705)-信号转导和转录激活因子3(STAT3)及La的表达。因此,我们认为AZD1480可通过抑制La蛋白来抑制HAV IRES活性及HAV复制。
