Finally, this review discusses the potential use of Southern African medicinal plants, which have traditionally been used for the treatment of symptoms related to respiratory viral infections, and influenza, to inhibit SARS-CoV-2. The selective index (SI) values of compounds 1-6 were found to be 58, >510, 111, 193, 180 , and >667, respectively, indicating that these plants were able to inhibit viral replication without having a cytotoxic effect on the host cells. A chalcone, xanthoangelol E (8), isolated from the ethanolic leaf extract of Angelica keiskei (Miq.) Koidz., showed inhibitory activity against SARS-CoV 3CL pro and a papain-like protease (PL pro ) with IC 50 values of 11.4 and 1.2 µM, respectively, using cell-free assays. ./cache/cord-303585-8py6joh6.txt ./txt/cord-303585-8py6joh6.txt
