Abstract

Adhatoda vasica (L.) (Acanthaceae) has essential therapeutic roles and is widely used in the indigenous medicine system or Ayurvedic system of medicine. The important goals of the present study are to report the in-silico anti-corona (COVID-19) activity of different phytochemicals present in A. vasica. This study will help to find specific bioactive compounds, and their use as anti- COVID-19 action for human welfare. A. vasica has chemical phytoconstituents with diverse pharmacological activities. These phytoconstituents have been found active against many diseases such as antibacterial, antitubercular, antivirus, antitussive, hepatoprotective, antiinflammatory, antiulcer, antiurolithiatic, abortifacient, radio modulator, cardio-protection, antidiabetic, antioxidant, anticancer, thrombolytic, antimutagenic, etc. Researchers have been lured to the use of natural and sustainable products with substantial therapeutic potential in the current climate of environmental preservation and safe use. These materials permit biological activity, safety, and compatibility with the environment. Using the SARS-CoV-2 spike receptor (6M0J), we evaluated Adhatoda vasica biomolecules for the Covid-19 variant (RBD- COV-2-S). This study is very encouraging and indicates that herbs should be studied more extensively for their therapeutic benefits.

Keywords: Adhatoda vasica, phytoconstituents, Coronavirus (COVID-19), in-silico study, traditional medicines, viral diseases.
