Abstract
Influenza A (H1N1) virus is an acute respiratory infection responsible for enormous morbidity and mortality worldwide. The tripartite motif-containing protein 46 (TRIM46) has an antiviral function that inhibits various viral infections. This study is designed to explore the role and mechanism of TRIM46 in the progress of H1N1 infection. Herein, we infected A549 or 16HBE cells with the H1N1 virus at different times to assess TRIM46 and solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11) expression. TRIM46 and Influenza A nucleoprotein mRNA levels were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). TRIM46, solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11), and Nucleoprotein protein levels were detected using protein level were detected by western blot assay. Cell virulence was determined using Virulence assay (TCID50) assay. Cell viability was determined using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. Reactive oxygen species (ROS), intracellular iron content, Malondialdehyde (MDA), and Glutathione (GSH) levels were determined using special assay kits. The stability of SLC7A11 was assessed by Cycloheximide (CHX) assay. Interaction between TRIM46 and SLC7A11 was verified using Co-immunoprecipitation (CoIP) assay. The biological role of TRIM46 was assessed in H1N1 virus-challenged lung injury mice in vivo. TRIM46 level was significantly increased during H1N1 virus infection, and SLC7A11 expression was decreased. TRIM46 downregulation could suppress H1N1 virus replication and relieve H1N1 infection-induced ferroptosis and inflammation in A549 or 16HBE cells. Mechanistically, TRIM46 could promote SLC7A11 ubiquitination and decrease its stability. TRIM46 knockdown repressed H1N1 virus-induced lung injury in vivo. TRIM46 could contribute to influenza A H1N1 virus infection by promoting SLC7A11 ubiquitination in A549 cells, which indicates that targeting TRIM46 may improve the prognosis of patients.
