Abstract
The invention discloses the use of a substance that reduces CCR2 content or activity for the treatment or prevention of fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome. The invention discovers that CCR2 is a target spot for preventing and treating the infection of the fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus, reveals that the CCR2 plays an important role in the infection and proliferation process of the fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus, can be used as the target spot for inhibiting the infection of the fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus, and has good research prospect when the CCR2 inhibitor is used as a candidate medicament for preventing and treating the fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus. The invention provides a theoretical basis for using CCR2 as a target point of fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome treatment, and has great application value for the treatment of fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus infection and the research and development of medicines for treating fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus infection.
Description

The present invention relates to the biomedical field, and to the use of a substance that reduces CCR2 content or activity for the treatment or prevention of fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome.
Background
Fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome, SFTS) is a new onset of toxic hemorrhagic fever with a mortality rate varying from 12% to 50%. The causative agent of this disease is Dabiebanda virus (Dabiebandavirus), also known as SFTSV (SFTS virus), belonging to the genus Bandavirus (Phenuiviridae) of the family of the Cortinariaceae. The major transmission vehicle for fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome is ticks, and there are many cases where people pass through intimate contact with patient secretions. Due to the high mortality rate, complex pathogenic mechanisms and widely distributed transmission media, the disease has attracted high attention from the international society, and SFTS is one of ten infectious diseases that is urgently studied by the world health organization. At present, clinical treatment schemes for SFTS patients mainly adopt symptomatic support treatment, and no specific antiviral treatment medicines or protective vaccines are available in batches. Therefore, the method can clearly define the target spot related to the fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus infection, is helpful for the research and the application of antiviral therapeutic drugs, and has great significance for preventing the outbreak of public health events.
C-C chemokine receptor 2 (C-C motif chemokine receptor, CCR 2) belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor superfamily members and is a receptor for monocyte chemotactic proteins 1-4 (MCP 1-4), MCP 1-4 being a chemoinducer of the pro-inflammatory response. CCR2 is the earliest chemocatalytic receptor for inflammatory monocytes and is expressed in T cells, dendritic cells and epithelial cells, and CCR2 mediates inflammatory cell migration and activation by engagement with ligands.

Mu.L/mouse SFTSV strain HBMC16 virus (2X 10) 4 FFU/mL), weight of mice was weighed daily and the survival status of mice was observed, and if the weight of mice was reduced by 25%, the mice were considered dead.
The results are shown in fig. 6, where mice lost weight after the first day of SFTSV infection, but gradually lost weight after day 6 of infection, where CCR2 knockout mice lost weight faster and survived significantly more than WT mice, indicating that CCR2 gene knockout significantly improved survival of SFTSV infected mice.
Example 6 detection of therapeutic effect of CCR2 inhibitors on SFTSV infected mice.
5 weeks old wild type C57BL/6J mice bred in SPF environment were used, and 5 control groups were set up, 13 SFTSV+Vehicle groups, and 13 SFTSV+RS102895 groups. Groups of mice were intraperitoneally injected with type I interferon blocking antibody (IFNAR 1), 1.7 mg/mouse, pre-treated for 24h; then, mice in the SFTSV+Vehicle group and the SFTSV+RS102895 group were inoculated intraperitoneally with 100. Mu.L/mouse (2X 10) of the SFTSV strain HBMC16 virus 4 FFU/mL), sftsv+rs102895 group mice were gavaged once daily with 15 mg/kg/day gavage RS102895hydrochloride (MedChemExpress) (dissolved in 20% sbe- β -CD), sftsv+vehicle group mice were gavaged with equal volumes of 20% sbe- β -CD per day; the control group was not subjected to any treatment. Mice were weighed daily and observed for survival, and 50 μl of tail vein blood was collected for serum viral load detection on days 3 and 5 of SFTSV virus infection, and the mice were considered dead if their body weight was reduced by 25%.
Serum viral load detection: the detection method was the same as in example 3.
As a result, as shown in fig. 7, the serum viral load was significantly reduced on days 3 and 5 of viral infection in the sftsv+rs102895 group (treatment group) mice, and the survival rate of the treatment group was significantly improved, compared to the solvent group (sftsv+vehicle).
