EC50, effective concentration of the compound needed to inhibit EBV genome copy numbers and, in parentheses, EA/VCA expression to 50% of untreated cells.
CC50, cytotoxic concentration of the compound that decreased cell viability to 50% of untreated cells determined by MTT. Results represent mean values ± S.D. of three independent experiments.
Therapeutic index is defined as the ratio of CC50 to EC50.
ND, not determined.
