However, the role of Atg12 and its expression product ATG12 in the process of EV71 infection has not been reported yet.
[0008] At present, there is no report on the role of ATG12 molecule in EV71 infection of HBMEC. In-depth research on this molecule can not only improve the understanding of EV71 infection and pathogenic mechanism, but also provide new ideas and targets for the prevention and treatment of EV71 infection

Embodiment 1

[0049] 1 Design and synthesis of specific siRNA sequences for each host cell molecule.

[0050] 1.1 For each target gene, search NCBI GeneBank to obtain the full sequence and mRNA sequence, use existing network resources and commonly used software to conduct biological analysis of each target gene, and select the coding region as the target sequence for siRNA design. Refer to the siRNA design principle, and compare it with the human genome sequence through the blast function of the GeneBank database to ensure that there is no homology; exclude potential siRNAs that have 8 consecutive bases at the 5' end of the aitisense chain paired with other genes; exclude any consecutive 14 bases base-pairing potential siRNAs with other genes. The design software was used for pre-evaluation and determination, and three targets with the best kinetic parameters were selected to enter the subsequent experimental process. A total of three interference sequences were synthesized for each gene, a...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of biomedicine, and relates to a novel target used for preventing enterovirus 71 infection, and applications thereof. According to the invention, Human Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cell (HBMEC) is taken as the target cell, and RNA interference technology is adopted for down-regulation of expression of target cell host protein so as to search host factors capable of inhibiting EV71 infection of HBMEC effectively, protect the functions of the blood brain barrier, and prevent central nervous system infection caused by penetrating of the blood brain barrier by virus. It is fond by experiments that the autophagy-related protein 12 (ATG12) possesses significant importance in infection of HBMEC by EV71, and down-regulation of expression of ATG12, and is capable of inhibiting EV71 infection obviously. The invention also provides applications of ATG12 in preparing drugs used for preventing or treating EV71 infection.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of biomedicine, and is a new target and application for resisting enterovirus 71 infection. Background technique [0002] Enterovirus 71 (enterovirus71, EV71) belongs to the Picornaviridae Enterovirus genus Human Enterovirus A, and is one of the main pathogens that cause Hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD). Currently, hand, foot and mouth disease is breaking out and spreading in many parts of the world, especially in the Asia-Pacific region. In my country, since the outbreak of hand, foot and mouth disease in several major provinces and cities in 2008, the number of people infected and the death rate of the disease have remained high, with more than 1 million cases and nearly 1,000 deaths reported every year. The main patients with HFMD are infants and young children under 5 years old. The clinical manifestations are fever, herpes and other symptoms in the hands, feet, buttocks and oral mucosa; a small number of...
