摘要： Infectious hematopoietic necrosis (IHN) caused by infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) is a severe disease that threats worldwide salmon and trout aquaculture, but there is currently no approved antiviral to treat the infection. In this study, tetrandrine, a key functional component of Chinese medicine, was screened and approved to inhibit IHNV (50 % inhibition concentration [IC50] = 0.3274 mu M) with minimal cytotoxicity. In vitro studies showed that tetrandrine dramatically inhibited diverse IHNV isolates on both the mRNA expression levels and viral titers, and in vivo studies showed that oral pre-treatment with 5 mg/kg tetrandrine could decrease IHNV loads and increase the survival rate of rainbow trout. The antiviral effect mainly occurred on RNA replication stage, during which the tetrandrine was predicted by using molecular docking to bind to the IHNV phosphoprotein (P protein) at the Asp-81 site, which involves interaction between P protein and polymerase protein (L protein). We introduced mutations to the Asp-81 region (including Asp-81, Lys-72, Lys-84, and Arg-94), and found that a single mutation to the Asp-81 could result in the failure of the rescue of recombinant IHNV mutants, which indicates that the Asp-81 plays a key role to start IHNV replication. So, the tetrandrine was likely to inhibit IHNV via binding to Asp-81 on the phosphoprotein of IHNV.
