Article Title: D-glucose uptake inhibits bovine alphaherpesvirus 1 post-binding cell process entry via inhibition of PLC-γ1 signaling in a glucose transporter 1-independent manner
doi: 10.1128/spectrum.02456-25
Figure Lengend Snippet: The effects of U73122 and glucose on BoAHV-1 entry process. ( A and B ) MDBK ( A ) and A549 ( B ) cells in six-well plates were subjected to glucose depletion via culturing the cells using glucose-free DMEM for 12 h. The cells were infected with BoAHV-1 (MOI = 1) in the presence of either U73122 or D-glucose alone, or in combination, at the designated concentrations, at 37°C for 30 min. After extensive washes, genomic DNA was extracted, and the viral genome bound to the cells was quantitatively evaluated using qPCR. The data shown are the means of three independent experiments with error bars representing the SDs. The significance was evaluated by Student’s t -test (*, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01).
