BACKGROUND: Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is the primary cause of severe neurological infections associated with Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease (HFMD) in children, and no specific therapeutic agent is available. Breviscapine injection (BRE Injection) is widely used in China for its neuroprotective properties in ischemic stroke.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the therapeutic impact and mechanisms of BRE Injection and its main component scutellarin in preventing fatal infection of EV71 in newborn mice.
METHODS: A fatal EV71 infection model in newborn mice was developed to evaluate the effectiveness of BRE Injection and its main component scutellarin. The antiviral effects were analyzed using EV71-infected cell culture models. Molecular biology and histochemistry techniques were used to explore the underlying mechanisms.
RESULTS: BRE Injection and its principal component, scutellarin (SCU, ≥99 %), successfully safeguarded newborn mice against fatal EV71 infection. EV71 infection predominantly occurred in the peripheral regions of the brainstem in the brain, with astrocytes being the most commonly infected cell type, and microglia showing the highest infection rate. SCU demonstrated antiviral activity with EC50 values between 4.11 and 6.62 μM across different glial cells types. It inhibits EV71 replication, mitigates oxidative stress, reduces neuroinflammation by modulating the Kelch-like ECH Associated Protein 1/Nuclear Factor erythroid 2-Related Factor 2 (Keap1/Nrf2) and RELA proto-oncogene, NF-kB subunit/NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (P65/NLRP3) pathways.
CONCLUSION: SCU from BRE Injection safeguarded newborn mice against fatal EV71 infection by inhibiting viral replication, and reducing oxidative damage and neuroinflammation. The underlying mechanisms involve enhancement of Keap1/Nrf2 pathway and inhibition of P65/NLRP3 pathway in glial cells of the brainstem.
