| | HBV DNA Assay |
| Description: | The assay employs real-time qPCR (TaqMan) to directly measure extracellular HBV DNA copy number. HepG2.2.15 cells were plated in 96-well microtiter plates. Only the interior wells were utilized to reduce "edge effects" observed during cell culture, the exterior wells were filled with complete medium to help minimize sample evaporation. On the following day, the HepG2.2.15 cells were washed and the medium was replaced with complete medium containing various concentrations of a test compound in triplicate. 3TC was used as the positive control, while media alone was added to cells as a negative control (virus control, VC). Three days later, the culture medium was replaced with fresh medium containing the appropriately diluted drug. Six days following the initial administration of the test compound, the cell culture supernatant was collected, treated with pronase and then used in a real-time qPCR/TaqMan assay to determine HBV DNA copy numbers. Antiviral activity was calculated from the reduction in HBV DNA levels (IC50). |
