COVID-19 is a global health threat caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and associated with significant increase in morbidity mortality. The present review discusses nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) activation its potential therapeutical role treating COVID-19. pathogenesis, the major NF-κB pathways, involvement of SARS-CoV-2 have been detailed. Specifically, impact on managing has discussed. As central player immune inflammatory responses, modulating could offer strategic avenue for infection. Understanding pathway’s aid developing treatments against SARS-CoV-2. Further investigations into intricacies are required to reveal effective therapeutic strategies combating infection

The COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 remains an international concern. Although there are drugs to fight it, new natural alternatives such as polyphenols essential due their antioxidant activity and high antiviral potential. In this context, review reports the main findings on effect of phenolic compounds (PCs) against virus. First, proven PCs different human viruses is briefly detailed, which serves a starting point study anti-COVID-19 targets (its proteins) defined. Findings from in silico, vitro vivo studies wide variety shown, emphasizing mechanism action, fundamental for drug design. Furthermore, clinical trials have demonstrated effectiveness prevention possible therapeutic management COVID-19. results were complemented with information influence strengthening/modulating immune system.
