Abstract:

This study was conducted to investigate the inhibitory effect of NO· on the replication of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2).NO was generated from SNP or SNP in the presence of ascorbate (VC).SNP+VC generates mainly NO· in culture medium while NO+ was the major product of SNP alone.PK-15 cells were pretreated with SNP,VC,SNP+VC or control drug (NAP) for 6 h,respectively,then infected with PCV2 (1 MOI) and incubated with the above mentioned drugs for additional 72 h.After incubation,culture medium and cells were collected.IFA,Western blotting,TCID50 and QPCR assay methods were performed to determine the viral titers.The results showed that the highest concentration of SNP,VC and SNP+VC in treated cells were 500,62.5 and 31.25 μmol/L,respectively.The production of NO in 60 μmol/L SNP or 30 μmol/L SNP+30 μmol/L VC treated cells were higher than that in untreated cells and NAP treated cells (P<0.01).Virus titers and PCV2 DNA copies from 30 μmol/L SNP+30 μmol/L VC treated group were significantly lower than that from infected control (P<0.01).In addition,The expression of viral Cap protein from the sample treated with 30 μmol/L SNP+30 μmol/L VC also obviously decreased in relation to those from infected control samples.However,almost no antiviral activities of SNP or VC alone were indicated during PCV2 infection.In conclusion,inhibition of NO on PCV2 replication was mediated by NO·,rather than NO+.
