Interferon-a(IFN-a) has been used in antiviral therapy for decades;it has been reported that EV-A71 antagonizes the antiviral activity of IFN-a based on viral 2 Apro-mediated reduction of the interferon-alpha receptor 1(IFNAR1);however, the mechanism remains unknown. Here, we showed a significant increase in IFNAR1 protein induced by IFN-a in RD cells, whereas EV-A71 infection caused obvious downregulation of the IFNAR1 protein and blockage of IFN-a signaling. Subsequently, we observed that EV-A71 2 Apro inhibited IFNAR1 translation by cleavage of the eukaryotic initiation factor 4 GI(eIF4GI), without affecting IFNAR1 m RNA levels induced by IFN-a. The inhibition of IFNAR1 translation also occurred in puromycin-induced apoptotic cells when caspase-3 cleaved e IF4 GI. Importantly, we verified that 2 Aprocould activate cellular caspase-3, which was subsequently involved in e IF4 GI cleavage mediated by 2 Apro. Furthermore, inhibition of caspase-3 activation resulted in the partial restoration of IFNAR1 in cells transfected with 2 A or infected with EV-A71, suggesting the pivotal role of both viral 2 Aproand caspase-3 activation in the disturbance of IFN-a signaling. Collectively, we elucidate a novel mechanism by which cellular caspase-3 contributes to viral 2 Apro-mediated down-regulation of IFNAR1 at the translation level during EV-A71 infection, indicating that caspase-3 inhibition could be a potential complementary strategy to improve clinical anti-EV-A71 therapy with IFN-a.展开更多

The key of the analysis is to construct quotient trigonometric function, and then nonlinear algebraic equation set theory and method are used for the solution of some kinds of nonlinear Duffing differential equation. In this paper, the exact solution of Duffing equation is obtained by using constant variation method, making use of the formula to solve cubic equations and general solution of the homogeneous equation of Duffing equation with appropriate Constant m and function f(t) .展开更多
