Resumo |
Productive infection of human amniotic and endothelial cell lines with Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) was established leading to the induction of NF kappa B and HLA-F, a non-classical MHC molecule. Induction of the HLA-F gene and protein in JEV-infected cells was shown to be NF kappa B dependent since it was blocked by inhibitors of NF kappa B activation. ShRNA targeting lentivirus-mediated stable knockdown of the p65 subunit of NF kappa B inhibited JEV-mediated induction of HLA-F both in the amniotic cell line, AV-3 as well as the human brain microendothelial cell line, HBMEC. The induction of HLA-F by treatment of AV-3 with TNF-alpha was also inhibited by ShRNA mediated knockdown of NF kappa B. TNF-alpha treatment of HEK293T cells that were transfected with reporter plasmids under the control of HLA-F enhancer A elements resulted in significant transactivation of the luciferase reporter gene. NF kappa B-mediated induction of HLA-F following JEV infection and TNF-alpha exposure is being suggested for the first time. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. |
