Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Inhibitory Effect of Compounds on the Replication of Novel Coronavirus
Description:  Determining the inhibitory activity of compounds of the present invention on the replication of 2019 novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2): Vero E6 cells were purchased from ATCC, and SARS CoV-2 virus was derived from Microbiological Culture Collection Center of National Virus Resource Center. Vero E6 cells were cultured overnight at a density of 5 104 cells/well in a 48-well cell culture plate. The cells were pretreated with different concentrations of the compound of the invention for 1 hour. Then, the virus was added at multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 0.05. One hour later, the mixture of virus and compound was removed, and cells were treated with fresh medium containing the compound of the invention. At 24 h p.i., cell supernatant was collected and lysed in lysis buffer. Virus copy number in cell supernatant was quantitatively determined by quantitative real-time RT-PCR (qRT-PCR). The results showed that at the concentration of 10 μM or 5 μM, many compounds significantly inhibited the replication of SARS-CoV-2 compared with the control group, with the inhibition rate was >99N against novel coronavirus.
