However, the mechanisms underlying GZMB-mediated apoptosis of T lymphocytes remain unknown. In this study, we investigated whether transcription factors and microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in GZMB-mediated apoptosis of T lymphocytes in response to EV71 infection. Our findings indicated that EV71 infection significantly induced apoptosis in Jurkat cells, a human T lymphocytes cell line, as revealed in flow cytometric analysis. Furthermore, EV71 increased the expression of pro-apoptosis Bcl-2-associated X (Bax) and cleaved caspase 3 but decreased the expression of anti-apoptosis B-cell lymphoma protein 2 (Bcl2). GZMB knockdown decreased cell apoptosis and prevented EV71-induced changes in the expression of Bax, cleaved caspase 3, and Bcl2 in Jurkat cells, highlighting the role of GZMB as a key factor in EV71-induced apoptosis. Our study also indicated that overexpression of the transcription factors GATA binding factor 1 (GATA1) and specificity protein 1 (SP1) significantly increased luciferase activity when this gene was inserted in the GZMB 3' untranslated region (3'UTR). GATA1/SP1 overexpression induced cell apoptosis, increased the expression of Bax and cleaved caspase 3, and decreased the expression of Bcl2. Finally, our results suggested that miR-874 plays an essential role in GZMB-mediated cell apoptosis, since an miR-874 mimic decreases the expression of GZMB by targeting its 3'UTR. Collectively, these data indicated that GATA1/SP1 and miR-874 mediate EV71-induced apoptosis in a granzyme B-dependent manner. This signaling pathway may provide a new pharmacological target for the prevention and treatment of HFMD. Ligamento-muscular reflex pattern following stimulation of the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) was examined. Th
