Suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) is a histone deacetylase inhibitor that shows marked efficacy against many types of cancers and is approved to treat severe metastatic cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. In addition to its anticancer activity, SAHA has significant effects on the growth of many viruses. The effect of SAHA on replication of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) has not, however, been investigated. Here, we showed that the replication of HCMV was significantly suppressed by treatment with SAHA at concentrations that did not show appreciable cytotoxicity. SAHA reduced transcription and protein levels of HCMV immediate early genes, showing that SAHA acts at an early stage in the viral life-cycle. RNA-sequencing data mining showed that numerous pathways and molecules were affected by SAHA. Interferon-mediated immunity was one of the most relevant pathways in the RNA-sequencing data, and we confirmed that SAHA inhibits HCMV-induced IFN-mediated immune responses using quantitative Real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Fatty acid-binding protein 4 (FABP4), which plays a role in lipid metabolism, was identified by RNA-sequencing. We found that FABP4 expression was reduced by HCMV infection but increased by treatment with SAHA. We then showed that knockdown of FABP4 partially rescued the effect of SAHA on HCMV replication. Our data suggest that FABP4 contributes to the inhibitory effect of SAHA on HCMV replication.
