Remdesivir inhibits EV71 replication at the viral transcription stage. (A) Schematic representation of reverse transcription and PCR protocol for conventional real-time PCR (top) and tagged primer-mediated qRT-PCR (bottom). The tag within the tagged RT primer is shown in green, and the amplified products contained a portion of the tag and cDNA. (B,C) Synthesis of EV71 cRNA (normalized to the actin expression level) was inhibited by remdesivir (mean ± SD, n = 3). P > 0.05, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001.
