Abstract: To discuss the mechanism how open reading frame 3 (ORF3) protein of genotype Ⅳ hepatitis E virus (HEV) affected the expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) in target cells, Human Matrix Metalloproteinase Antibody Array was used to compare and analyze the expression levels of matrix metalloproteinase in stable cell lines that expressed or did not express HEV ORF3, screening the matrix metalloproteinases which were down-regulated or up-regulated. The results indicated that the expressions of TIMP-1, TIMP-2 and TIMP-4 in stable L02 cell line with expression of pEGFP-ORF3 were down-regulated, and which provided important information for explaining the molecular mechanism through which HEV pORF3 affected the expression of protein associated with matrix metalloproteinase in target cells.
