Table 1.

Cytotoxicity (CC50 and CC20), antiviral potency (IC50) and selectivity index (SI) of ouabain.

Cell line CC50 (nM)a CC20 (nM)b Pre-treatment Post-treatment
IC50 (nM)c SId IC50 (nM)c SId
Vero 68.9 20 2.33 29.5 1.92 35.8

aCC50 (50% cytotoxic concentration) refers to compound concentration that caused a 50% reduction in viability.

bCC20 (20% cytotoxic concentration) refers to the maximum non-toxic concentration employed in the antiviral assays.

cIC50 (50% inhibitory concentration) refers to compound concentration required to reduce viral titers by 50% compared with untreated controls.

dThe Selectivity Index (SI) is obtained by calculating the ratio of the CC50 to the IC50.
