Abstract
Hantaan virus (HTNV) is responsible for hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), primarily due to its ability to inhibit host innate immune responses, such as type I interferon (IFN-I). In this study, we conducted a transcriptome analysis to identify host factors regulated by HTNV nucleocapsid protein (NP) and glycoprotein. Our findings demonstrate that NP and Gc proteins inhibit host IFN-I production by manipulating the retinoic acid-induced gene I (RIG-I)-like receptor (RLR) pathways. Further analysis reveals that HTNV NP and Gc proteins target upstream molecules of MAVS, such as RIG-I and MDA-5, with Gc exhibiting stronger inhibition of IFN-I responses than NP. Mechanistically, NP and Gc proteins interact with tripartite motif protein 25 (TRIM25) to competitively inhibit its interaction with RIG-I/MDA5, suppressing RLR signaling pathways. Our study unveils a cross-talk between HTNV NP/Gc proteins and host immune response, providing valuable insights into the pathogenic mechanism of HTNV.
