Viral RNA levels in the cytoplasm were quantified by RT-qPCR at 2 hours post-infection (hpi), expressed as relative DTMUV mRNA levels between the drug-treated groups and the control group. (B) Viral replication assay of DEFs infected with DTMUV (MOI = 1) prior to treatment with DMSO (control), diltiazem hydrochloride (50 µM), or EAPTA-AM (25 µM) at 2 hpi, and RT-qPCR analysis of viral RNA replication in infected cells at 6 hpi, expressed as relative DTMUV mRNA levels between the drug-treated and control groups.

Results expressed as the viral titer ratio (%) between the drug-treated groups and the control group. (D) Viral replication assay of DEFs infected with DTMUV (MOI = 1) prior to treatment with DMSO (control) or alternative forms of verapamil (25 µM), diltiazem hydrochloride (50 µM), or BAPTA-AM (25 µM) at 1 hpi. Infected cells were harvested for RT-qPCR analysis of DTMUV mRNA levels at 8, 10, and 12 hpi, expressed as relative DTMUV mRNA levels between the drug-treated and control groups.

Results expressed as the viral titer ratio (%) between the drug-treated groups and the control group. (D) Viral replication assay of DEFs infected with DTMUV (MOI = 1) prior to treatment with DMSO (control) or alternative forms of verapamil (25 µM), diltiazem hydrochloride (50 µM), or BAPTA-AM (25 µM) at 1 hpi. Infected cells were harvested for RT-qPCR analysis of DTMUV mRNA levels at 8, 10, and 12 hpi, expressed as relative DTMUV mRNA levels between the drug-treated and control groups. Data expressed as mean ± standard deviation of triplicate samples, analyzed by one-way or two-way ANOVA with multiple comparisons; *p < 0.05, **p <0.01, ***p <0.001, ****p <0.0001. Data shown are representative of three independent experiments. ns: no significant difference.

    DTMUV-mediated AMPK activation is markedly diminished by treatment with VDCC blockers or a cytoplasmic Ca 2+ chelator. (A) Western blotting of pAMPKα (Thr172) in DEFs infected with DTMUV (MOI = 1) and harvested at the indicated time points. (B) Immunoblotting analysis of pAMPKα (Thr172) levels in DEFs treated with DMSO (control), verapamil (25 µM; Vera), diltiazem hydrochloride (50 µM; Dilt), or BAPTA-AM (25 µM; BAP), with and without DTMUV infection (MOI = 1) for 12 hours.

    Effect of diltiazem hydrochloride on PIEZO1 channel sensitivity. A) Applied deformation after AFM loading. B) Magnitude of the intracellular Ca 2+ response to mechanical compression. C) Percentage of cells that responded to AFM compression. D) Magnitude of the intracellular Ca 2+ response to Yoda1 addition. E) Percentage of cells that responded Yoda1 addition. Data presented as mean ​± ​95 ​% confidence interval. Kruskal-Wallis testing was significant ( p ​= ​0.0343) but Dunn’s test revealed no significant differences between any groups. One way ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc test or Kruskal-Wallis testing with Dunn’s post-hoc test was used for group comparisons A-B and D-E. Different letters indicate statistical significance ( p ​< ​0.05). If the same letter is assigned to multiple groups, those groups are not significantly different from each other. Conversely, if two groups are denoted with completely different letters, the two groups are significantly different. N ​= ​14–80.
