dc.description.abstract | In late 2019, COVID-19 emerged in Wuhan, China. Currently, it is an ongoing global health threat stressing the need for therapeutic compounds. Linking the virus life cycle and its interaction with cell receptors and internal cellular machinery is key to developing therapies based on the control of infectivity and inflammation. In this framework, we evaluate the combination of cannabidiol (CBD), as an anti-inflammatory molecule, and terpenes, by their anti-microbiological properties, in reducing SARS-CoV-2 infectivity. Our group settled six formulations combining CBD and terpenes purified from Cannabis sativa L, Origanum vulgare, and Thymus mastichina. The formulations were analyzed by HPLC and GC-MS and evaluated for virucide and antiviral potential by in vitro studies in alveolar basal epithelial, colon, kidney, and keratinocyte human cell lines. | pt_PT |

The funding allowed to perform the collection and harvesting of the medicinal plants, extract and purify the terpenes and formulations, execute the formulations, and execute preliminary assays related to toxicity. Considering in vitro virucide assays and gene expression assays, the work was partially funded by FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (REF UID/BIM/04293/2019) and was partially supported by grants 104 and 112 of the 1st edition of RESEARCH4COVID (FCT) and by the grant 418 from the 2nd edition of RESEARCH4COVID-19 (FCT). This work was also partially supported by FEDER-European Regional Development Fund with the grant FEDER/02/SAICT/2020/072560. | pt_PT |
