Background: Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is an immunosuppressive pathogen with high prevalence rate in pig farms. It has caused serious economic losses to the global pig industry. Due to the rapid mutation of PCV2 strain and co-infection of different genotypes, vaccination could not eradicate the infection of PCV2. It is necessary to screen and develop effective new compounds and explore their anti-apoptotic mechanism. The 13 natural compounds were purchased, with a clear plant origin, chemical structure and content and specific biological activities.
Methods: The maximum no-cytotoxic concentration (MNTC) and 50% cytotoxic concentration (CC50) for 13 tested compounds were determined by the cytopathologic effect (CPE) assay and (3-(4,5-dimethyithiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) method in PK-15 cells, respectively, qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the anti-PCV2 effect of compounds. Western blot method, AnnexinV-FITC /PI, JC-1, and ROS Kits were respectively used to detect the anti-PCV2 induced apoptosis mechanism of Cepharanthine and Curcumin. In this study, Ribavirin was used as a positive control.
Results: MNTC and CC50 of 13 compounds were obtained. Compared with the PCV2 infected group, the expression of Cap treated with Paeonol (0.4 mg/mL and 0.2 mg/mL), Cepharanthine (0.003 mg/mL, 0.0015 mg/mL and 0.00075 mg/mL) and Curcumin (0.02 mg/mL, 0.001 mg/mL and 0.005 mg/mL) were significantly lower in a dose-dependent manner. The expression of cleaved caspase-3 and Bax were up-regulated in the treated with Cepharanthine or Curcumin, while the expression of Bcl-2 was down-regulated, ROS value and MMP value were decreased to different degrees and the apoptosis rate was reduced.
Conclusion: Paeonol, Cepharanthine and Curcumin have significant antiviral effect. And the PCV2-induced Mitochondrial apoptosis was mainly remitted by Cepharanthine and Curcumin.
