Title: Notoginsenoside R1 inhibits hepatitis B virus replication by modulating SIRT1 activity | ||

Abstract: The hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains highly prevalent globally. The present study aimed to explore the possible therapeutic effect of notoginsenoside R1, which has attracted considerable attention due to its diverse pharmacological effects, on HBV infection. The HBV-containing hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines, HepG2 and MHCC97H, were used in this study. We first treated the two cell lines with different concentrations of notoginsenoside R1 and subsequently measured the relative levels of HBV DNA, HBV surface antigen, HBV core antigen, and sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blotting. Finally, an HBV hemodynamic replication model was created to test the effect of notoginsenoside R1 on HBV replication. Notoginsenoside R1 inhibited the replication of HBV. This inhibitory effect was mediated through the downregulation of SIRT1 activity. Additionally, the inhibition of SIRT1 activity by silencing its expression or treatment with the SIRT1 inhibitor, selisistat, suppressed HBV replication. Furthermore, our animal experiments demonstrated that notoginsenoside R1 was effective at suppressing HBV replication in vivo. Thus, notoginsenoside R1 suppresses HBV replication by downregulating SIRT1 activity in vitro and in vivo. |
