Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) J4FUT2-KI HIEs were pretreated with 30 μM TAK-779 and then infected with GII.3 (TCH-04-577/P21, 2.9 × 10 5 GE per well; TCH-25-396/P12, 2.2 × 10 5 GE per well), GII.17 (1295-44/P13, 2.8 × 10 5 GE per well; TCH-25-256/P171, 3.1 × 10 5 GE per well), G1.1 (BCM-723–100595/P1, 3.7 × 10 5 GEs per well; 51899/P1, 6.9 × 10 5 GE per well). ( B ) J4FUT2-KI HIEs were pretreated with 30 μM TAK-779 and then infected with GII.4 Sydney (BCM 16-2/P31, 3.0 × 10 5 GE per well; TCH-24-163/P16, 2.2 × 10 5 GE per well), GII.4 Den Haag (TCH-23-323/P16, 5.6 × 10 6 GE per well), GII.4 Hunter (TCH-05-797/P4, 3.35 × 10 5 GE per well) in the absence or presence of 30 μM TAK-779. After washing, the cells were cultured for 48 hours at 37°C in the absence or presence of 30 μM TAK-779. Virus replication at 1 and 48 hours postinfection was evaluated by RT-qPCR. Mean data compiled from two independent experiments with three wells per experiment are shown; error bars show SD. Experiments are denoted with different symbol colors Error bars denote SD. Significance was determined using paired t test comparing 48-hour replication, 0 to 30 μM TAK-779 ( P value, *, 0.01; **, 0.01; ***, 0.001; and ****, < 0.0001). hr, hours.
Article Snippet: RT-qPCR was performed with qScript XLT One-Step RT-qPCR ToughMix reagent with ROX reference dye (Quanta Biosciences) in an Applied Biosystems StepOnePlus thermocycler.
