    TMPRSS2 inhibitor Camostat mesylate (66.7 μM; 1 h; 37 ℃) dose-dependently inhibited pseudovirus entry of HKU25 clade or HKU5-1 in Caco-2 cells overexpressing the indicated ACE2s.

    Camostat purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Nat Microbiol. 2024 Sep;9(9):2383-2394.  [Abstract]

    TMPRSS2 inhibitor Camostat mesylate (0.01-100 μM) inhibited the WT pseudovirus approximately 3-fold better than the ΔFCS pseudovirus in VeroE6 cells overexpressing hACE2 and TMPRSS2 (VAT cells).

    Camostat mesylate (2-20 μM; 1 h) inhibited SARS-CoV-2 infection of Caco2 cells in a dose-dependent manner.

    Camostat purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Nature. 2022 Mar;603(7902):693-699.  [Abstract]

    VeroE6-TMPRSS2 cells were pretreated with Camostat mesylate (1–50 μM; 2 h) followed by transduction with pseudoviruses carrying the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 WT, Alpha, Beta, Delta, or Omicron. Pseudovirus entry was quantified by measuring the luciferase signal of the cell lysates at 24 h.p.i.

    Camostat purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Nature. 2022 Mar;603(7902):693-699.  [Abstract]

    VeroE6-TMPRSS2 cells were pretreated with Camostat mesylate (1-50 μM; 2 h) and challenged with the indicated authentic SARS-CoV-2 variants at 0.1 m.o.i.. The amount of viral subgenomic envelope RNA in the collected cell lysates at 24 h.p.i. was determined using RT–qPCR.

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
