TRIM21 inhibited STING-IRF3 signaling in HSV-1-infected HCE cells. (A) The protein (left) and mRNA levels (right) of TRIM21 in HCE cells were assessed to confirm the transfection efficiency of lentivirus and siRNA before HSV-1 infection. (B) The mRNA level of IFN-β in each group was examined after HSV-1 infection 12 h. (C) The protein expression levels of TRIM21, STING, phosphorylation of IRF3, and IRF3 were examined after HSV-1 infection 12 h. (D) HCE cells pretreated with both siRNA-TRIM21 and siRNA-STING. After HSV-1 infection 12 h, qPCR detected the production of IFN-β. Data are shown as mean ± SD of three independent experiments. P < 0.05.
