Repurposing the in-house generated Alzheimer's disease targeting molecules through computational and preliminary in-vitro studies for the management of SARS-coronavirus-2.

Covid-19 was declared a world pandemic. Recent studies demonstrated that Covid-19 impairs CNS activity by crossing the blood-brain barrier and ensuing cognitive impairment. In this study, we have utilized Covid-19 main protease (Mpro) as a biological target to repurpose our previously reported multifunctional compounds targeting Alzheimer's disease.
