Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) plays a crucial role in inflammation and immune responses. Our previous studies have demonstrated that the innate immune response affect H5N1 virus virulence in mice. In this study, we first showed that the PA protein of the highly pathogenic avian influenza virus strain CK10 had the strongest inhibitory effect on NF-κB activation when compared with other genes, and that it acted in a dose independent-manner. We then determined the critical amino acids of PA that contribute to this effect. Furthermore, PA also inhibited NF-κB-regulated inflammatory factors, including IL-6, IL-2, Nos-2 and TNF-α. However, the inhibitory effect on NF-κB activation mediated by PA was not associated with nuclear translocation of p65.
