摘要

AIM: p73, as a novel member of a family of p53-related transcription factors, shares redundant functions with p53, such as the abilities of inducing apoptosis and suppressing growth. It is well known that p53 can repress HBV expression and transcription efficiently. The aim of this paper is to investigate the transcriptional effect of p73α and p73β on hepatitis B virus (HBV) and to understand the correlation between HBV and p73. METHODS: To construct an x-gene inactivated HBV plasmid which was cotransfected with p73α or p73β expression vectors into HepG2 cells. After transiently transfecticn, HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) and HBV e antigen (HBeAg) were detected by ELISA. Viral transcripts synthesized by HBV were evaluated by Northern blotting analysis. The activities of HBV regulatory elements, including enhancer I/X promoter (ENI/Xp) and enhancer II/core promoter (ENII/Cp) were monitored by luciferase assays. RESULTS: Both p73α and p73β could repress HBsAg and HBeAg expression by downregulating the ENI/Xp and ENII/ Cp activities. But p73β exerted stronger inhibition on the activity of ENI/Xp than p73α, resulting in much lower level of viral transcripts and the antigens expression. CONCLUSION: p73β as a novel member of p53 family can efficiently inhibit HBV transcription mainly through downregulating the activities of the HBV ENI/Xp regulatory elements.
