Abstract

Persistent high fever is one typical clinical symptom of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and circulating interleukin‑1β (IL‑1β) is elevated throughout HFRS. The mechanisms responsible for viral induction of IL‑1β secretion are unknown. In the present study, Hantaan virus (HTNV) induced the secretion of IL‑1β in the human monocytic cell line THP‑1. Induction of IL‑1β by HTNV relies on the activation of caspase‑1. Small hairpin RNA knockdown in HTNV‑infected THP‑1 cells indicated that nucleotide‑binding domain, leucine‑rich repeat containing protein 3 (NLRP3) recruits the adaptor apoptosis‑associated speck‑like protein and caspase‑1 to form an NLRP3 inflammasome complex, crucial for the induction of IL‑1β. In HTNV‑infected THP‑1 cells, reactive oxygen species release, but not extracellular adenosine triphosphate, was crucial for IL‑1β production. In conclusion, Hantavirus induces the formation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in THP‑1 cells and this may be responsible for the elevated IL‑1β levels in HFRS patients.
