[h=3]Abstract[/h] To study the effect and underlying mechanism of Mahuang Tang against influenza A virus in vitro， the influenza virus-infected Madin-Darby canine kidney(MDCK) cells were used as the carrier in this study to detect the median tissue culture-infective dose(TCID₅₀) of influenza A virus strains(A/PR8/34) on MDCK cells with cytopathic effect(CPE) assay. Blocking influenza virus invading host cells and anti-influenza virus biosynthesis were used as two different administration methods， and then the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) assay was utilized to determine the antiviral effective rate(ER)， median efficacious concentration(EC₅₀) and therapeutic index(TI) of Mahuang Tang. The quantitative Real-time polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) was used to measure virus load and the mRNA expression levels of TLR4， TLR7， MyD88 and TRAF6 in MDCK cells at 24， 48 h after the treatment. The experiment results indicated that TCID₅₀ of A/PR8/34 for MDCK cells was 1?10-4.32/mL. The EC₅₀ values of two different treatment methods were 4.92，1.59 g?L⁻? respectively， the TI values were 12.53， 38.78 respectively， and when the concentration of Mahuang Tang was 5.00 g?L⁻?， ER values were 50.21%， 98.41% respectively， showing that Mahuang Tang can block influenza virus into the host cells and significantly inhibit their biosynthesis. Meanwhile， as compared with the virus group， the virus load was significantly inhibited in Mahuang Tang groups， and Mahuang Tang high and middle doses had the significant effect on decreasing the mRNA expression of TLR4， TLR7，MyD88 and TRAF6 at 24， 48 h after the treatment. It can be demonstrated that the mechanisms of Mahuang Tang against influenza A virus are related to the inhibition of influenza virus replication and the mRNA expression of correlative genes in TLR4 and TLR7 signaling pathways.
