As shown in Fig. 2C and E, myricetin treatment (20 μM) during adsorption significantly decreased the fluorescence of ICP5 protein on cell surface, compared to that in non-treated virus control cells, suggesting that myricetin may block virus adsorption process of HSV. As shown in Fig. 3A , in HSV-2 (MOI = 3.0) infected Vero cells, obvious syncytia with multinuclear cells were observed in non-treated virus control group (HSV-2) at 7 h p.i. However, treatment with myricetin (30, 15 μM) during 5-7 h p.i. markedly blocked syncytium formation only with a limited number of small syncytia, suggesting that myricetin may inhibit HSV-induced cell fusion. However, myricetin (2.5, 5, 10, 20 μM) treatment did not significantly influence the total expression levels of EGFR, PI3K and Akt proteins in HSV-2 infected Vero cells (Fig. 4G and H) . ./cache/cord-271638-0wsyl7vk.txt ./txt/cord-271638-0wsyl7vk.txt
