Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) is a leading cause of viral myocarditis and is currently lacking specific pharmacological treatments, highlighting the critical need for therapeutic development. Icariin (ICA), a prenylated flavonol glycoside, was previously found to exhibit several pharmacological effects, but its potential to combat CVB3 remains uninvestigated.
PURPOSE: This study aimed to elucidate the anti-CVB3 efficacy of ICA and elucidate its molecular mechanisms.
METHODS: CVB3-infected HeLa cells, H9C2 cells and neonate rat ventricular cardiomyocytes (NRVCs) were selected as in vitro models, and were treated with ICA at 1 and 10 μM. Additionally, BALB/c mice that were infected with CVB3 via intraperitoneal injection were chosen as in vivo model and were treated with ICA or ribavirin over 3 days. The effect of ICA against CVB3 was determined by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, western blot, real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay, hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining, immunohistochemistry (IHC) and flow cytometry.
RESULTS: In this study, it was found that ICA is capable of reducing CVB3 viral load both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistic studies suggested that ICA prevents cardiomyocyte apoptosis by attenuating the S100 calcium binding protein A6 (S100A6)/β-catenin/c-Myc signaling pathway. Additionally, ICA inhibits the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) and CXC motif chemokine ligand 2 (CXCL2) in heart tissue, thereby mitigating CVB3-induced myocarditis. Moreover, ICA also regulates the immune response of CD4+ T, CD8+ T and Treg cells by changing the cells numbers in spleen tissue. Lastly, ICA can reduce the load of other enteroviruses (such as CVA6, CVA16 and EV71) in rhabdomyosarcoma (RD) cells as well.
CONCLUSION: Our findings indicate that ICA provides significant protection against CVB3 infection by modulating the S100A6/β-catenin/c-Myc signaling pathway, suggesting its potential use as a novel drug against CVB3 infection in clinical application.
