Tyrosine kinase inhibitors attenuate Japanese
encephalitis virus-induced neurotoxicity. / PTK inhibitors,
genistein, herbimycin A, and PP2, attenuated JEV-induced
neurotoxicity but failed to affect JEV replication.
Infection of neuron/glia cultures with JEV produced elevated
levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and
interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta). PTK inhibitors suppressed
JEV-induced TNF-alpha and IL-1beta production at the
transcriptional level. Our results suggest that PTKs,
especially Src-related PTK, play roles in the production of
TNF-alpha and IL-1beta during JEV infection and in the
induction of neuronal death in neuron/glia cultures.
