T61 0-36 Sentence denotes GA inhibits HSV-1 and ZIKV infection
T62 37-213 Sentence denotes We tested GA on HSV-1, a rapidly replicating and lytic DNA virus, and on ZIKV, an RNA virus which has neither glycoprotein conservation nor common receptors with HCMV or HSV-1.

T65 372-607 Sentence denotes 1 × 107 PFU HSV-1 strain F was treated for 1 hour with GA (50 µM) or with vehicle in serum free DMEM and then each of these were used to infect HEp2 or 293T cells at an MOI of 0.5 in 199V medium with a final concentration of 2.5 µM GA.

T72 1518-1608 Sentence denotes The results showed profound inhibition of immediate early, early, and late viral proteins.
T73 1609-1775 Sentence denotes The inhibition of the full temporal range of HSV-1 proteins implies that inhibition of viral replication occurs by blocking the entry of virions into the target cell.
T74 1776-1973 Sentence denotes To evaluate the effect of GA on progeny virions, the supernatant of GFP-HSV-1 strain 17+ infected Vero cells at an MOI of 1 was collected after 20 h and titered by plaque reduction assay (Fig. 2D).
T75 1974-2069 Sentence denotes The results showed a significant decrease of approximately 2 log in the GA-treated cell titers.
T76 2070-2354 Sentence denotes Figure 2 GA inhibits HSV-1 infection. (A) 1 × 107 PFU HSV-1 strain F were treated for 1 hour with 50 µM GA (Lanes 1–3) or with vehicle (Lanes 4–6) in serum free DMEM and then were used to infect HEp2 or 293T cells at an MOI of 0.5 in 199V medium with final concentration of 2.5 µM GA.
T77 2355-2964 Sentence denotes 6-well cultures of HEp-2 (A) or 293T (B) were then infected, and at 5, 10 and 29 hours post-inoculation, cells were collected and a fraction of the total cell lysate was subject to Western Blot analysis using antibodies directed against ICP8, ICP27, US11 and β-Actin. (C) HEp2 cell monolayers were treated with 10 µM GA C15:1 or vehicle for 1 hour in 199V medium and then infected with HSV-1 strain F at 4, 8, 12, 24 and 32 hours post-inoculation cells were collected and a fraction of the total cell lysate was subject to Western Blot analysis using antibodies directed against ICP8, ICP27, US11 and β-Actin.
T78 2965-3157 Sentence denotes Normalized ratios of protein expression are in the bar graph. (D) Titration by plaque assay of Vero cells pretreated with 10 µM GA C15:1 or vehicle and then infected with GFP-HSV-1 strain 17+.
T79 3158-3366 Sentence denotes To test the effect of GA on ZIKV infection, NHA were grown to 90% confluency in a 24-well plate, treated with GA or DMSO for 3 hours without serum and then infected with ZIKV strain PRVABC59 at an MOI of 0.3.
T80 3367-3488 Sentence denotes The next day, supernatant was replaced with fresh medium containing GA or DMSO and cells were incubated at 37 °C, 5% CO2.
T81 3489-3685 Sentence denotes On day 7, viability was determined with the MTS Cell Proliferation Assay (Promega), and then these cells were harvested to extract total RNA for quantification of ZIKV RNA by Taqman based qRT-PCR.
T82 3686-3813 Sentence denotes The results showed 70% to 80% viability at 5 µM to 20 µM GA, compared to less than 40% viability for the vehicle-treated cells.
T83 3814-3903 Sentence denotes Furthermore, an 80–90% decrease in ZIKV RNA was observed at 5 µM to 20 µM GA (Fig. 3A,B).
T84 3904-3984 Sentence denotes We concluded that GA inhibits entry of Zika virions and prevents NHA cell death.
T85 3985-4200 Sentence denotes This suggests that the mechanism of inhibition that appears to be targeted in HSV and HCMV by GA is conserved among enveloped viruses that have no homologous glycoproteins and use different cell receptors for entry.
T86 4201-4391 Sentence denotes To test the direct effect of GA on ZIKV, 5 × 105 PFU ZIKV were treated for 1 hour with GA (10 µM/ml) or with vehicle in 199V medium, and then were used to infect Vero cells at an MOI of 0.5.
T87 4392-4517 Sentence denotes Supernatant was collected at 4, 24 and 48 hours post-inoculation for cell free viral RNA copy number determination (Fig. 3C).
T88 4518-4638 Sentence denotes The results indicated that the GA-treated ZIKV was completely inhibited, as indicated by cell free ZIKV RNA copy number.
T89 4639-4780 Sentence denotes This suggests that viral entry of ZIKV, may be a target of GA because direct treatment of ZIKV with GA blocks downstream ZIKV RNA production.
T90 4781-4878 Sentence denotes Figure 3 GA inhibits ZIKV infection. (A) Viability of NHA infected with ZIKV and treated with GA.
T91 4879-5037 Sentence denotes NHA were grown in 24-well plates to >80% confluency and treated with GA (0–20 µM) or DMSO for 3 hours and infected with ZIKV strain PRVABC59 at an MOI of 0.3.
T92 5038-5309 Sentence denotes At 12 hpi, supernatants were carefully removed and replaced with fresh AGM. (B) 7 days post infection, samples were analyzed for cell viability by the MTS assay and then live cells were harvested for RNA and processed with Taqman based real-time PCR to quantify ZIKV RNA.
T93 5310-5531 Sentence denotes Experiments were performed in duplicate three independent times and the data were analyzed by t-test (* indicates p ≤ 0.05). (C) Cell free ZIKV in 199V medium was pretreated with 10 µM GA or with DMSO for 1 hour at 37 °C.
