This study investigated the in-silico activity of phytocompounds from tinospora cordifolia against hepatitis A virus (HAV). The results showed that chasmanthin, malabarolide, menispermacide, tinosporaside, and tinosporinone compounds had better binding interaction with HAV. Further evaluations indicated that these phytocompounds were potential drug candidates against hepatitis A virus.
The hepatitis A virus (HAV), which causes hepatitis A, is a contagious liver ailment. The infections are not specifically treated by any medications. Therefore, the development of less harmful, more effective and cost-effective antiviral agents are necessary. The present work highlighted the in-silico activity of phytocompounds from tinospora cordifolia against HAV. The binding interaction of HAV with the phytocompounds was analyzed through molecular docking. Molecular docking revealed that chasmanthin, malabarolide, menispermacide, tinosporaside, and tinosporinone compounds bind with HAV more efficiently than other compounds. Further evaluation using 100 ns molecular dynamics simulation, MM/GBSA and free energy landscape indicated that all phytocompounds studied here were found to be most promising drug candidate against hepatitis A virus. Our computational study will encourage promoting in further investigation for in vitro and in vivo clinical trials.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma
