Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is caused by SARS-CoV-2 (SARS2, 2019-nCoV) infection, a newly emerged novel coronavirus spreading worldwide. Current efforts are focusing on development of specific antiviral drugs. Therapeutic neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) against SARS-CoV-2(SARS2, 2019-nCoV) will be greatly important therapeutic agents for the treatment of COVID-19. The availability of therapeutic NAbs against SARS-CoV-2 will offer benefits for the control of the current pandemic and the possible re-emergence of the virus in the future, and their development therefore remains a high priority.

GeneMedi's NAbs has been validated to reduce SARS-CoV-2 lentivirus-based pseudo virus infectivity and thereby blocking the entry of the Coronavirus to its effector/targeting cell: human ACE2-HEK293T cell.

GeneMedi's NAbs has been validated by

Protocol of SARS-CoV-2 Pseudovirus (PSV)-Based Neutralization Assay For Vaccines, therapeutic antibodies, peptides and compounds against COVID-19         Protocol Download

SARS-CoV-2 (2019nCoV) pseudotype virus (pseudovirus, PSV) for COVID-19 related vaccines and neutralizing antibodies evaluation.

The outbreak of COVID-19, caused by SARS-CoV-2 (2019-nCoV), has been a global public health threat and caught the worldwide concern. Due to its high pathogenicity and infectivity¹, live SARS-CoV-2 should be handled under biosafety level 3 (BSL-3) conditions. GeneMedi has developed SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus production system, from which the SARS-CoV-2 pseudotyped virus can be handled in biosafety level 2 (BSL-2)².

GeneMedi's SARS-CoV-2 (2019nCoV) pseudotype virus (pseudovirus, PSV) based neutralization assay is a standard evaluation procedure for COVID-19 related vaccines and neutralizing antibodies potency evaluation. GeneMedi's SARS-CoV-2 PSV is the core ingredient of diagnostics for neutralization serology after vaccinotherapy.

GeneMedi's SARS-CoV-2 pseudotyped virus includes wildtype and the spike mutation variants (D614G, S943P, V367F, G476S, V483A, H49Y, Q239K, A831V, P1263L, D839Y/N/E: D839Y, D839N, D839E). The GeneMedi's SARS-CoV2 PSV panel help for all-in-one vaccinotherapy evaluation.

Application-SARS-CoV-2(2019nCoV) Pseudotyped Virus Based Neutralization Assay³

In the Pseudovirus-Based Neutralization Assay (PBNA), the inhibition of viral entry into cells by neutralizing antibodies is correlated to the decreased levels of firefly luciferase signals in the ACE2 expression cells (hACE2-HEK293T, Cat. GM-SC-293T-hACE201) .
GeneMedi’s Pseudovirus Based Neutralization Assay (PBNA) is a conventional assay method that is suitable for High-Throughout Screening (HTS) without live virus engaged. The Pseudovirus Based Neutralization Assay can be used for evaluating:

1) Neutralizing antibodies (NAbs)^3,4
2) Peptides blockers^5,6 (peptide inhibitors) or protein^7,8
3) Types of Vaccines (Immunized serum)⁹
4) Compounds targeting Spike induced cell-fusion¹⁰.

Protocol of SARS-CoV-2 Pseudovirus (PSV)-Based Neutralization Assay

Materials
1. SARS-CoV-2 Pseudovirus-RFP-fLuciferase (GM-2019nCoV-PSV01)
2. Efforter cell: Alternative
A. hACE2-HEK293T stable cell line (GM-SC-293T-hACE2-01)
B. Wildtype HEK293T cell line, hACE2 vector for transfection (GMV-V-2019nCoV-041)

Protocol

If your efforter cell is hACE2-HEK293T stable cell line, please begin in Step 2.

1.Transfect HEK293T with hACE2-GFP vector (GMV-V-2019nCoV-041) 24hrs before planting the cell into 96-well.

2.Plant the hACE2-HEK293T into 96-well (5,000~10,000 per well) overnight before SARS-CoV-2 PSV infection.

3.Generation of 100ul PSV-Sample mixture:

Incubate PSV-Sample mixture for 1h at room temperature.

4.Remove the medium of efforter cell in 96-well, add 100ul PSV-Sample mixture to 96well cells for infection. 3wells for a group.

5.Fluorescence imaging (RFP) 72hrs after SARS-CoV-2 PSV infection. The firefly luciferase reporter is measured by following the Promega Luciferase Assay Reagent manual.

Tips

If your samples are serum
A standard curve should be generated using serially diluted Nabs (neutralizing antibodies) as a positive control.

If your samples are therapeutic antibodies or peptides candidates
Dilute the samples into concentration gradient for IC50 value evaluation.
