Forward and reverse primers pairs used for quantitative PCR were: S29, 5'GGTATCACAGGGTAGACAGT3' and 5'GGTATCACAGGGTAGACAGT3'; L9, 5'GAACTCTGAGGAGGGACTTC3' and 5'AAACTGTACTTGTTATCAGGAT3'; S27-1, 5'CGGCACGAGCGACCTCCCTA3' and 5'GTTCCCACTCATCTTGAATC3'; L24, 5'CAAGAAAGGACAGTCGGAAA3' and 5'TTCACAGGCTTCACAATCTT3'; S19, 5'TAACCAGCAGGAGTTCGTCA3' and 5'TTTGTTCTAATGCTTCTTGTT3'; β- Actin , 5'ATCCTGACCCTGAAGTACCC3' and 5'TACGACCAGAGGCATACAG3'; and GAPDH, 5'GAAACCTGCCAAGTATGATGA3' and 5'TCTCTCTTGCTCTCAGTATCC3', respectively.
Interestingly, RSV infection of HEp-2 cells also led to the formation of actin stress fibers and activation of the small cellular GTPase RhoA, a modulator of actin filamentation [ 14 15 16 17 ] . Inhibition of RhoA or its interaction with F resulted in the inhibition of syncytium as well as stress fiber formation and the second cycle of infection [ 14 ] . Recombinant F also activated RhoA in the absence of any other viral protein [ 17 ] . Based on these results, it was inferred that stress fiber formation might be important in some aspects of RSV infection, such as virus spread, elaboration of cytokines from infected cells, and contraction of airway muscles that promotes asthma.
This finding is consistent with the hypothesis that cellular evolution resulted from self-assembly of molecular scaffolds, like the actin cytoskeleton, that provide simultaneous structural and biochemical functions, including orienting mRNA transcripts and facilitating their translation into proteins that self-assemble into the very scaffolds to which they associate [ 33 ] .
The storage phosphor screen was scanned using Typhoon scanner (Molecular Dynamics), and the relative level of PPT1 message was determined by comparing the band intensity of PPT1 mRNA to that of actin mRNA using ImageQuant software version 5.1 (Molecular Dynamics).
Similar RT-PCR of viral genomic RNA, viral P mRNA, or cellular actin mRNA revealed essentially no reduction, suggesting that the dsRNA did not activate a general antiviral response, and did not directly target genomic RNA.
