Abstract:

Cell entry of virus is an indispensable process in virus life cycle. However, the mechanism of classical swine fever virus (CSFV) cell entry is still undiscovered. Here, CSFV entry into ST cells by clathrin-mediated endocytosis was tested. Chemical inhibitor chlorpromazine and Dynasore and shRNA were used to disturb the clathrin-mediated endocytosis. The cell entry efficiency of CSFV was greatly decline when the function of clathrin and dynamin-2 were blocked. By using NH4Cl and down-regulation of Rab5 and Rab7 gene, CSFV infection was inhibited. These results showed that the CSFV can entry into susceptible cells by using clathrin-mediated endocytosis pathway and the early endosome and late endosome were used for CSFV infection. This research provides new information to understand the CSFV infection.
