Zusammenfassung:A use of a canopy fibroblast growth factor signaling regulator 3 (CNPY3) protein as a target for treating of dengue fever is provided belongs to the technical field of antiviral drugs. An important host protein CNPY3 related to dengue virus infection is identified. A host gene is significantly down-regulated in blood of dengue patients and in dengue virus (DENV) infected dendritic cells and THP-1 cells. Its expression is negatively correlated with the progression of dengue disease and positively correlated with the expression of most Toll-like receptors. Down-regulation of the host gene inhibits the production of IFN-β and the expression of ISGs in THP-1 cells, promoting DENV-2 infection. Up-regulation of the host gene expression in Vero and HEK 293T cells inhibits DENV-2 infection. It indicates that CNPY3 participates in an innate immune response signaling pathway, has the effect of anti-dengue virus, and is a potential therapeutic target for dengue fever.
