Inhibition Value Type: | IC50 |
Inhibitory Effect: | 4.74 |
Inhibitory Unit: | µg/mL |
Target Domain Name: | RBD of SARS-CoV-2 |

Assay Description: | HEK-293T-hACE2 cells obtained from Prof. Ye and A549 cells purchased from the Cell Bank of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS, Shanghai, China) were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM, Gibco, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Shanghai, China) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Gibco). Cells were seeded into a 96-well plate at a density of 5 × 10^3 cells/well and cultured overnight. To determine IC50, SARS-CoV-2 S pseudovirions expressing a dual-luciferase reporter (1 × 10^6 TU, Tsingke Biotechnology, Beijing, China) were pretreated with increasing concentrations of LL37 (100, 75, 50, 25, 12.5, 6.25, 3.13, 1.56, 0.78, and 0.39 µg/mL) at 37 °C for 15 min. After three washes with sterile PBS, HEK-293T-hACE2 cells were coincubated with pseudovirions at 37 °C for 12 h. The cells were further cultured for 48 h in DMEM containing 10% FBS after the removal of pseudovirions. To evaluate the effect of ACE2 cloaking on pseudovirion invasion, A549 and HEK-293T-hACE2 cells were preincubated with LL37 (1, 5, and 10 µg/mL) at 37 °C for 24 h and were then exposed to pseudovirions for 48 h. Luciferase activity was measured using a dual-luciferase reporter assay system (E1910, Promega, Beijing, China). Experiments were conducted in triplicate and repeated twice. |
