Computational studies on the interaction of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron SGp RBD with human receptor ACE2, limonin and glycyrrhizic acid

TL;DR: In this article , the interactions of SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein receptor-binding domain (SGp RBD) of the three variants (Omicron, Delta, and WT) with the receptor hACE2.1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exosomes, autophagy and ER stress pathways in human diseases: Cross-regulation and therapeutic approaches.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors review the available information on the mechanisms that control autophagy, ER stress and EV pathways, with the view that a better understanding of their crosstalk and balance may improve our knowledge on the pathogenesis and treatment of human diseases, where these pathways are dysregulated.

Double-Membrane Vesicles as Platforms for Viral Replication.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review contemporary understanding of the biogenesis, structure, and function of virus-induced double-membrane vesicles (DMVs) as well as the open questions posed by these intriguing structures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting SARS-CoV-2 spike protein of COVID-19 with naturally occurring phytochemicals: an in silico study for drug development.

TL;DR: Molecular docking studies using 10 potential naturally occurring compounds against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and compared their affinity with an FDA approved repurposed drug hydroxychloroquine revealed that these molecules bind with the hACE2-S complex with low binding free energy, and ADME analysis suggested that they consist of drug-likeness property, which may be further explored as anti-SARS- CoV- 2 agents.

Essential Oils as Antiviral Agents. Potential of Essential Oils to Treat SARS-CoV-2 Infection: An In-Silico Investigation.

TL;DR: The docking energies of essential oil components with SARS-CoV-2 targets were relatively weak compared to docking energies with other proteins and are, therefore, unlikely to interact with the virus targets.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular docking study of potential phytochemicals and their effects on the complex of SARS-CoV2 spike protein and human ACE2.

TL;DR: Five phytochemicals, which belong to flavonoid and anthraquinone subclass, have been selected as small molecules in molecular docking study of spike protein of SARS-CoV2 with its human receptor ACE2 molecule and their molecular binding sites on spike protein bound structure with its receptor have been analyzed.
