摘要:

本研究旨在探究艾叶精油(Artemisia argyi essential oil,AAEO)对鸡马立克病病毒(Marek’s disease virus,MDV)体外增殖的影响及潜在分子机制。通过CCK-8法测定AAEO对鸡胚成纤维(chicken embryo fibroblast,CEF)细胞的毒性作用,筛选AAEO的最佳作用浓度范围;根据筛选出的最佳作用浓度处理细胞收集样品。通过蚀斑分析和病毒滴度测定,检测AAEO对MDV体外增殖的影响。通过RT-qPCR和Western blot从分子水平上解析AAEO抑制MDV增殖的机制。结果表明,AAEO作用浓度为60~360 μg·mL-1对CEF无细胞毒作用。AAEO处理组的病毒蚀斑明显减小且变少,病毒滴度下降,病毒在基因水平和蛋白水平的表达上均有下降,说明AAEO可抑制MDV的复制,且具有剂量依赖性。通过对AAEO作用的细胞内信号通路筛选发现,AAEO可下调磷酸化ERK和STAT3蛋白表达水平,下调IL-6 mRNA表达水平。使用ERK抑制剂U0126处理细胞,当细胞内ERK通路被抑制时,病毒复制减少。AAEO可抑制鸡MDV体外增殖,其抗病毒作用可能与AAEO抑制IL-6/STAT3和ERK通路激活有关。艾叶精油具有较好的抗MDV活性,研究结果可为抗疱疹病毒药物的研发提供新的依据。

Abstract:

This study aims to investigate the effects of Artemisia argyi essential oil on the in vitro replication of Marek's disease virus and elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms involved. The cytotoxicity of AAEO on chicken embryo fibroblast (CEF) cells was determined by the CCK-8 method, and the optimal concentration range of AAEO was screened; The cells were treated and samples were collected according to the selected optimal concentration. The effect of AAEO on the proliferation of MDV in vitro was detected by plaque analysis and virus titer assay.The mechanism of AAEO inhibiting MDV proliferation was analyzed at the molecular level by RT-qPCR and Western blot. The results showed that AAEO had no cytotoxic effect on CEF cells in the range of 60-360 μg·mL-1.In the AAEO treatment group, the virus plaque was significantly reduced and reduced, the virus titer was decreased, and the expression of virus at the gene level and protein level were decreased, indicating that AAEO can inhibit the replication of MDV in a dose-dependent manner. Through the screening of intracellular signaling pathways of AAEO, it was found that AAEO could down regulate the expression levels of phosphorylated ERK and STAT3 proteins, and down regulate the expression levels of IL-6 mRNA. Treatment of cells with the ERK inhibitor U0126 reduced viral replication when the intracellular ERK pathway was inhibited. AAEO effectively inhibits the in vitro proliferation of MDV in chickens. The antiviral mechanism may be associated with its suppression of IL-6/STAT3 signaling pathway and ERK pathway activation. This study demonstrates that AAEO exhibits significant anti-MDV activity, and the findings provide novel evidence for developing therapeutic agents against herpesviruses. The research outcomes offer new insights into the exploration of antiviral drug candidates targeting herpesvirus infections through natural product derivatives.
