The Oropouche virus (OROV) is a member of the family (order ) and the cause of a dengue-like febrile illness transmitted mainly by biting midges and mosquitoes. In this study, we aimed to explore acylphloroglucinols and xanthohumol from hops ( L.) as a promising alternative for antiviral therapies.

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an arthropod-borne virus that belongs to the genus (family Togaviridae). CHIKV causes chikungunya fever, which is mostly characterized by fever, arthralgia and, sometimes, a maculopapular rash. The bioactive constituents of hops (, Cannabaceae), mainly acylphloroglucinols, known as well as - and -acids, exerted distinct activity against CHIKV, without showing cytotoxicity.

Extracts from aerial parts of , , and were assayed against toxigenic species. They were obtained by sequential extraction of the aerial parts with hexane (fHex), dichloromethane (fDCM), ethyl acetate (fEtOAc) and methanol (fMeOH). The fMeOH from showed the highest antifungal spectrum (MIC = 750-1500 µg mL; MID = 50-200 µg; DI = 1.

Purpose: The early prediction of pharmacokinetic behavior is of paramount importance for saving time and resources and for increasing the success of new drug candidates. The steady-state volume of distribution (VDss) is one of the key pharmacokinetic parameters required for the design of a suitable dosage regimen. The aim of the study is to propose a quantitative structure - pharmacokinetics relationships (QSPkR) for VDss of basic drugs.
