Embodiment 1

[0027] The inhibitory effect of different concentrations of verteporfin on the infection of SARS-CoV-2 on Vero-E6 cells was observed by cytopathic (CPE):

[0028] Inoculate Vero-E6 cell suspension (4 × 10 4 cells / well), the culture plate was placed in the incubator for pre-cultivation for 12 hours, and the cells adhered to the wall for growth;

[0029] Add the corresponding concentration of verteporfin to pre-treat for 1 hour, add DMSO to the solvent control, and add no drug to the negative control;

[0030] Then add 200PFU SARS-CoV-2 virus (GenBank: MT121215.1) to each well except the negative control. After 12 hours of infection, wash twice with PBS, add new medium containing verteporfin, and incubate at 37°C After 48 hours, the cytopathic changes were observed under the microscope.

[0031] Experimental results such as figure 1 As shown, the experimental results show that normal Vero-E6 cells (negative control) grow normally after 48 hours of culture, and no cytopathic c...

Embodiment 2

[0033] The inhibitory effect of different concentrations of verteporfin on the infection of SARS-CoV-2 on Vero-E6 cells was observed by indirect immunofluorescence experiment:

[0034] Cells were processed as in Example 1, and washed 2 times with PBS after virus infection for 48 hours, each time for 5 minutes;

[0035] Add 4% paraformaldehyde to fix at room temperature for 15 minutes;

[0036] Discard the solution, add PBS solution containing 0.5% Triton X-100, react at room temperature for 10 minutes, wash with PBS twice, 5 minutes each time;

[0037] Add freshly prepared PBS solution containing 5% BSA, block at room temperature for 1 hour, wash with PBS twice, 5 minutes each time;

[0038] Add 1:1000 diluted mouse anti-N protein (SARS-CoV-2) polyclonal antibody, and react at room temperature for 1 hour;

[0039] Wash with PBS 3 times, 5 minutes each time;

[0040] Add FITC-goat anti-mouse IgG secondary antibody diluted 1:10000, react at room temperature for 1 hour; wash w...

Embodiment 3

[0045] Real-time quantitative PCR (Q-RT-PCR) method was used to detect the viral copy number of Vero-E6 cell supernatant to verify the inhibitory effect of verteporfin on the infection of SARS-CoV-2:

[0046] Cells are processed as in example 1 step;

[0047] After 48 hours, the cell supernatant was collected for RNA extraction.

[0048] RNA extraction:

[0049] Add 100 μL of cell supernatant to 300 μL TRIzol lysate, mix well and lyse;

[0050] Add 200 μL of chloroform and shake vigorously, let stand for 2-3 minutes, then centrifuge at 12000g for 15 minutes at 4°C;

[0051] Aspirate the supernatant, add 500 μL isopropanol, let stand for 10 minutes, and then centrifuge at 12000g for 10 minutes at 4°C;

[0052] Add 1 mL of 75% ethanol to wash the RNA pellet; centrifuge at 7500g for 5 minutes at 4°C;

[0053] Discard 75% ethanol, add 20-50 μL water to dissolve the RNA precipitate after drying;

[0054] RNA reverse transcription:

[0055] For reverse transcription of RNA, cD...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of medicines and relates to a novel medicinal application of Verteporfin, in particular to an application of the Verteporfin in preparation of a medicine for resisting a novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. Experiments prove that the infection of the novel coronavirus can be effectively inhibited through intervention of in-vitro cell culture Vero-E6 (African green monkey kidney cells) by the Verteporfin, and novel coronavirus diseases caused by the novel coronavirus can be further treated by medicines prepared from the Verteporfin, so that a new medicine is provided for treating and controlling the novel coronavirus diseases.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medicine and relates to a new medicinal use of verteporfin, in particular to the use of verteporfin in preparing anti-new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 drugs. Background technique [0002] Novel coronavirus disease (Corona Virus Disease 2019, COVID-19), also known as novel coronavirus pneumonia, is a severe acute respiratory infectious disease. The disease is highly infectious and has a high fatality rate. The pathogen causing novel coronavirus disease is novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). SARS-CoV-2 and the known severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) belong to the betacoronavirus genus of the Coronaviridae family. [0003] Clinical practice shows that common symptoms after people are infected with SARS-CoV-2 include respiratory symptoms, fever, cough, shortness of breath, and dyspnea. In more severe cases, infection can lead to pneum...
