Article Title: Efficacy of Oseltamivir Against Seasonal Influenza H1N1 and the Efficacy of a Novel Combination Treatment In Vitro and In Vivo in Mouse Studies
doi: 10.1111/irv.70176
Figure Lengend Snippet: Seasonal influenza activity and its correlation with the effects of oseltamivir treatment. (a) Age and gender distribution. (b) The fold change compared to A/Hong Kong/415742/09 (EC 50 = 0.41 μM, IC 50 = 0.16 nM). (c) The correlation between HA/NA activity and EC 50 of oseltamivir. (d) The correlation between HA/NA quantification and EC 50 of oseltamivir, as well as the fold change in mRNA expression compared to the reference H1N1 (A/Hong Kong/415742/09), was calculated using the 2 ‐Δct method, ΔCt = Ct (seasonal strain)—Ct (reference strain). All strains were diluted to an equal virus titer before RNA extraction and RT‐PCR.
Article Snippet: Oseltamivir acid (Oseltamivir carboxylate, MedChemExpress, USA) was dissolved in water (100 mM), while molnupiravir (EIDD‐2801, MedChemExpress, USA) and baloxavir (baloxavir acid, MedChemExpress, USA) were dissolved in DMSO (50 and 10 mM) for in vitro studies.
