a

CC50, 50% cytotoxic concentration measured by viability assay (without virus infection); IC50, the viral RNA copies were reduced by 50% compared with the control (without compound treatment) in the secreted virions.

b

A selectivity index (CC50/IC50) of >10 is considered to have good potential for drug development.
