“The Orthopoxviruses encompass AUY922 a family of large, double-stranded DNA viruses, approximately 200 kbp in

size, whose replication is entirely carried out in the cytoplasm of infected cells (Condit et al., 2006 and Moss, 2007). In 1980, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared that smallpox (Variola) – a devastating human disease caused by Variola virus (VARV) – was eradicated (Fenner et al., 1988, Barquet and Domingo, 1997 and Smith and McFadden, 2002). With its eradication, vaccination was discontinued. As a consequence, much of the world’s Tenofovir cell line population has either never been immunized or has not been immunized for more than 30 years. Either scenario results in a population that is extremely susceptible to variola or other poxviruses. Our laboratory is interested in dissecting poxvirus-host

Adenosine triphosphate cell interactions. We have observed that pharmacological inhibition of the MEK/ERK pathway with UO126 or PD98059 decreased virus yield by at least one order of magnitude (de Magalhães et al., 2001 and Andrade et al., 2004). Moreover, pretreatment of cells with LY294002, a pharmacological inhibitor of the PI3K/Akt pathway, decreased Vaccinia virus (VACV) or Cowpox virus (CPXV) replication by 99% (Soares et al., 2009). Here we show that SP600125, an anthrapyrazolone inhibitor of the c-JUN N-terminal kinases 1/2 (JNK1/2) (Bennett et al., 2001), caused a significant decrease in viral yield of VACV, CPXV and modified Vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA). Although SP600125 is regarded as a specific JNK inhibitor (Bennett et al. 2001), our findings demonstrate that its antipoxviral effect is mediated through the target of a yet undefined kinase(s) other than JNK1/2. Since SP600125 has proved to be efficient in vitro against diverse viral infections such as influenza (Mehrotra et al., 2007), rotavirus (Holloway et al., 2006) and herpesvirus (Zapata et al., 2007, Hamza et al., 2004, Perkins et al., 2003 and Chen et al.
