[0098] Test Example 4: Inhibitory activity of substituted furanone derivatives against influenza virus:

[0099] 1. The influenza virus used for the assay was the recombinant GFP-H1N1 strain, and the host cell was the human non-small cell lung cancer cell line A549 (both the influenza virus and cell line used in this study were provided by Guangzhou Medical University).

[0100] 2. The inhibitory effect of tetrasubstituted furanone derivatives on influenza virus H1N1 was determined using a dual-fluorescence method. The specific determination procedure is as follows:

[0101] (1) Cell plating: A549 human non-small cell lung cancer cell line was prepared into a single-cell suspension, and 100 µL was seeded into 96-well plates. The concentration of the single-cell suspension was 2.5-3.0 × 10⁻⁶. 4 Cells per well were collected and then placed in a CO2 incubator (37°C, 5% CO2, 95% air) for overnight incubation. The next day, the drug was added and the cell density was approximately 90%.

[0102] (2) Drug treatment: Tetrasubstituted furanone derivatives (compounds IV-a to IV-k) were dissolved in DMSO to prepare a 10.00 mM stock solution, which was then diluted sequentially with blank medium to concentrations of 10.00 µM, 5.00 µM, 2.50 µM, 1.25 µM, 625.00 nM, 312.50 nM, 156.25 nM, 78.12 nM, and 39.06 nM. The original medium was discarded, and 50 µL of the drug solution prepared in the concentration gradient was added to each well of the cells to make the final concentrations of 5.00 µM, 2.50 µM, 1.25 µM, 625.00 nM, 312.50 nM, 156.25 nM, 78.12 nM, 39.06 nM, and 19.53 nM, respectively. 50 µL of blank medium was added to the control group.

[0103] (3) Viral infection: Subsequently, 50 µL of virus solution prepared with empty culture medium (virus titer of 2×10⁻⁶) was added to each well of the cells in the original drug solution. 7 FFU / ml, MOI=0.2). The control group received only empty culture medium, 50 μl per well. Incubation continued for 24 hours in a CO2 incubator.

[0104] (4) Fixation and staining of nuclei: 100 µL of 4% paraformaldehyde was added to each well of the plate that had been treated with the virus for 24 hours to fix the nuclei at room temperature, and then the liquid was discarded; finally, the nucleus staining solution was added to stain the nuclei.

[0105] (5) Results processing: Fluorescence values ​​were read and photographed using a fluorescence microplate reader, and the inhibition rate was calculated using GraphPadPrism 10.1.2. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0106] As shown in Table 2, the tetrasubstituted furanone derivatives (compounds IV-a to IV-k) of the present invention exhibit good inhibitory effects on influenza virus H1N1 strain, with an inhibition rate of up to 99.59%, which can inhibit the infection of influenza virus H1N1. This indicates that the tetrasubstituted furanone derivatives of the present invention have the potential to be prepared into anti-influenza virus drugs for application.
