Summary: Cellular cholesterol plays an important role in influenza A virus (IAV) endocytosis and replication. However, how IAV infection regulates cholesterol biosynthesis remains poorly understood. Here, we report that IAV infection activates SREBP2 and induces the expression of HMGCR, a rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis pathway. SREBP2 deficiency suppresses IAV-induced HMGCR expression and virus replication. Mechanistically, IAV infection activates JAK2 and STAT3, inhibition of JAK2 and STAT3 activity by their inhibitors or by gene knockout downregulates IAV-induced SREBP2 and HMGCR expression and IAV replication, reduces the content of cellular cholesterol and virus binding to host cells. Exogenous cholesterol reverses the inhibitory effect of S3I-201 and STAT3 deficiency on virus replication. STAT3 or JAK2 overexpression increases the expression of SREBP2 and its downstream target genes, leading to increased IAV replication. These observations collectively suggest that STAT3 activation facilitates IAV replication by inducing SREBP2 expression and increasing cholesterol biosynthesis. |
