ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To investigate the effect of transfusion-transmitted Zika virus (ZIKV) on the expression of non-coding circular RNA (hsa_circ_0001613) and the role of hsa_circ_0001613 in Zika virus replication. 【MethodsHuman adenocarcinomic alveolar basal epithelial cells (A549) were seeded on a 12-well plate at 1.8×105/ well and infected with ZIKV at 0.05 MOI. The Total RNAs were isolated every day for 5 days after infection, and the relative expression level of hsa_circ_0001613 was detected by qRT-PCR. In addition, 10nM siRNA-hsa_circ_0001613 was transfected into 2×105/ well A549 cells to specifically knock down the expression level of hsa_circ_0001613. 24h later, the cells were infected with ZIKV (MOI=0.05). Total RNAs were isolated at day 1-5 post-infection, proteins were extracted 96h post-infection. ZIKV replication, relative host antiviral gene expression, and interferon stimulated response element (ISRE) activity were tested using qRT-PCR, western blot and dual luciferase assay, respectively. 【Results】 The relative expression of hsa_circ_0001613 decreased significantly after 1-5 days of ZIKV infection. Knockdown of hsa_circ_0001613 inhibited ZIKV replication. Meanwhile, hsa_circ_0001613 knockdown significantly upregulated IFN-α/β and its downstream interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) expression, also increased ISRE activity. 【Conclusion】 ZIKV infection significantly suppressed hsa_circ_0001613 expression in A4549 cells. Preliminary study indicated that hsa_circ_0001613 knockdown inhibited ZIKV replication possibly through activating type-Ⅰ IFN signaling pathway as showed by increased ISGs expression and ISRE activity.
