Abstract
Aim: Histone deacetylases (HDACs) regulate the life cycle of several viruses. We investigated the ability of different HDAC inhibitors, to interfere with influenza virus A/Puerto Rico/8/34/H1N1 (PR8 virus) replication in Madin-Darby canine kidney and NCI cells. Results: 3-(5-(3-Fluorophenyl)-3-oxoprop-1-en-1-yl)-1-methyl-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)-N-hydroxyacrylamide (MC1568) inhibited HDAC6/8 activity and PR8 virus replication, with decreased expression of viral proteins and their mRNAs. Such an effect may be related to a decrease in intranuclear content of viral polymerases and, in turn, to an early acetylation of Hsp90, a major player in their nuclear import. Later, the virus itself induced Hsp90 acetylation, suggesting a differential and time-dependent role of acetylated proteins in virus replication. Conclusion: The inhibition of HDAC6/8 activity during early steps of PR8 virus replication could lead to novel anti-influenza strategy.
