Abstract: Aim: Hepatitis B virus is a primary etiological factor for various liver diseases, including cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.Hepatitis B virus is an incomplete double-stranded DNA virus, which infects hepatic cells, enters the nucleus to form a complete double-stranded DNA and products a series of functional proteins, then replicates and assembles to form a complete virus, which is released outside the cell. So far, the pathogenesis of hepatitis B virus is not clear. JNK signaling pathway is an important branch of MAPK pathway, which plays an important role in various physiological and pathological processes such as cell cycle, reproduction, apoptosis and cell stress. Study show JNK activation involves liver damage. Especially, hepatitis B virus infection promote the phosphorylation of JNK. Chlorogenic acid, as a polyphenolic compound, exhibits notable antioxidant and antiviral properties. Study revealed chlorogenic acid had ability of inhibiting hepatitis B virus replication, but the mechanisms was unknown. Here we demonstrated the antiviral mechanisms of chlorogenic acd on HBV replication. Methods: To investigate the effect of chlorogenic acid on HBV replication, southern blot and western blot were performed using HepAD38 cells. Results: Chlorogenic acid suppressed HBV replication. In this process, JNK expression was inhibited. Conclusion: chlorogenic acid suppressed HBV replication via inhibiting JNK expression.
