Targeting UDP-Glycosyltransferase, Glucosamine-6-Phosphate Synthase and Chitin Synthase by Using Bioactive 1,8 Cineole for “Aspergillosis” Fungal Disease Mutilating COVID-19 Patients: Insights from Molecular Docking, Pharmacokinetics and In-vitro Studies

Abstract: SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19)-associated co-infections like "Aspergillosis", has recently baffled the world. Due to its key role in cell wall synthesis, in the present study UDP-glycosyltransferase, glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase and chitin synthase have been chosen as appropriate targets for molecular docking. The objective of the present study was molecular docking of eucalyptus essential oil component 1,8 cineole against cell wall enzymes followed by in vitro validation. For molecular docking, patch-dock web base… Show more

“…Additionally, it has been claimed for many other biological properties, such as antimicrobial [ 5 , 8 , 9 ], antifungal [ 10 ], anxiolytic [ 11 ], and it has even been related to skin penetration enhancement of drugs [ 12 ]. More recently, other studies have been carried out on the biological activity of 1,8-cineole for the prevention of depressive-like behaviors [ 13 ], battle against ovarian and lung cancers [ 14 , 15 ], treatment of Alzheimer’s disease [ 16 , 17 ] and the treatment of conditions, such as co-infections associated with SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) [ 18 ], among others.…”
