Review on Some Plants’ Therapeutic Actions Against Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) with Gastroenteritis as Contributory Factor
Coronavirus is an enveloped, multinucleated virus with capability of causing respiratory and enteric ailments in both humans and animals. It resulted to an epidemic SARS with an almost 10% fatality rate. The main aim of the review, is to access some important metabolites or compounds from plants that have therapeutic actions against the novel Coronavirus. Search engines have been utilized in looking for updated findings in regards to this review, so as to provide a sound and reliable information. Moreover, other important CoV including: transmissible gastroenteritis virus of swine (TGEV), porcine epidemic diarrhoea (PEDV) virus and crystal structure of transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) which resulted to many severe cases and similar to SAR-CoV which antagonised the host innate immune responses. Coronavirus (Covid-19), occurred in the late 2019 at Wuhan, China and later to other countries within a shorter period. The novel virus, triggered in the search of new compounds from various plants species, so as to develop a valuable drug that can get rid of its problems. Many compounds from medicinal plants have clearly shown to be therapeutically active against the viral replications. Some formulations granted to COVID-19 confirmed patients were good in curtailing the tragic Coronavirus infections in China, which were also recommended for future used.
