چکیده

The effect of heat shock was investigated on lymphoblastoid cell lines Raji and P3HR1 harbouring Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) genomes, and on Vero cells abortively infected with human cytomegalovirus (HCMV). A heat shock at 44 degrees C for 10 min induced the appearance of EBV early antigens in Raji cells and increased the percentage of cells expressing EBV viral capsid antigens in P3HR1 cells. Heat shock performed on Vero cells just before HCMV infection resulted in an approximately fourfold increase in the number of cells exhibiting early nuclear antigens, and in the appearance of HCMV-induced Fc receptors.

Hsp90 inhibitor 17-DMAG decreases expression of conserved herpesvirus protein kinases and reduces virus production in Epstein-Barr virus-infected cells.

All eight human herpesviruses have a conserved herpesvirus protein kinase (CHPK) that is important for the lytic phase of the viral life cycle. In this study, we show that heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) interacts directly with each of the eight CHPKs, and we demonstrate that an Hsp90 inhibitor drug, 17-dimethylaminoethylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-DMAG), decreases expression of all eight ...
