Summary:Neomycin, an inhibitor of inositol phospholipid turnover, prevents Herpes‐simplex‐virus‐type‐1(HSV‐1)‐induced stimulation of ribosomal protein S6 phosphorylation, but does not impair the S6 phosphorylation induced by serum. Long‐term treatment with phorbol 12‐myristate 13‐acetate, which down‐regulates protein kinase C activity, does not inhibit virus‐induced S6 phosphorylation. In ras‐transformed cells, S6 phosphorylation is not stimulated after HSV‐1 infection. These results suggest that activation of the inositol phospholipid pathway is involved in the HSV‐1‐induced stimulation of S6 phosphorylation. However, protein kinase C activation does not appear to be necessary for HSV‐1‐induced S6 phosphorylation.
Bibliography:After this paper was submitted, an article by Kaner et al. [43] appeared demonstrating that the fibroblast growth factor receptor is a portal for cellular entry for HSV‐1 into vertebrate cells. Fibroblast growth factor treatment of Swiss 3T3 cells activates a subunit of S6 kinase [44]. If our cells express the fibroblast growth factor receptor, the stimulation of inositol phospholipid pathway and of S6 phosphorylation after HSV‐1 infection could be explained by a direct interaction between the viral particle and the fibroblast growth factor receptor.
