ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the anti-HBV mechanism of oxymatrine in vitro.Methods The antiviral mechanism of oxymatrine was analyzed through detecting the expression and function of TLR9 signal pathway and the secretion of antiviral cytokines from PBMCs treated by oxymatrine in vitro.Results Oxymatrine could not only induce IFN-α and IFN-γ secretions from PBMCs directly, but also effectively augmented the expressions of TLR9, MyD88 and TRAF6 at mRNA level, and activated the TLR9 signal transduction pathway. TLR9 ligand could induce IFN-α, IFN-γ and TNF-α secretion a lot from PBMCs pretreated by oxymatrine.Conclusion Oxymatrine possesses an anti-HBV activity via activation of TLR9 signal pathway and secretion of antiviral cytokines.
