Newest firstIntroduction The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), continues to pose major health challenges despite effective vaccination efforts. The sustained occurrence of breakthrough infections and emerging variants of the virus highlights the need for additional therapeutic strategies. Given the anti-inflammatory role of the cannabinoid typ…
Open article record in new tab ↗Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) enters host cells when the spike receptor-binding domain (RBD) engages angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). Cannabinoid scaffolds have recently been reported to bind S1/RBD, block spike-mediated membrane fusion, and modulate host inflammatory pathways, making them attractive candidates for entry inhibition. Here, we applied an integrated computational…
Cannabidiol (CBD) can prevent the inflammatory response of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein in Caco-2-cells. This action is coupled with the inhibition of IL-1beta, IL-6, IL-18, and TNF-alpha, responsible for the inflammatory process during SARS-CoV-2 infection. CBD can act on the different proteins encoded by SARS-CoV-2 and as an antiviral agent to prevent the viral infection. Furthermore, recent studies have shown the p…
