Curcumin for COVID-19
15th treatment shown to reduce risk in February 2021, now with p = 0.0000000096 from 27 studies.
No treatment is 100% effective. Protocols combine treatments.
5,100+ studies for 109 treatments. c19early.org
In Vitro study showing that curcumin, quercetin, gallic acid, and silymarin inhibit SARS-CoV-2 spike protein binding to the ACE2 receptor. Authors developed a novel immunofluorescent assay to screen potential inhibitors of the spike-ACE2 interaction. Curcumin demonstrated the strongest inhibitory effect with an IC50 of 1.4 μg/mL, followed by gallic acid (4.9 μg/mL), quercetin (8.5 μg/mL), and silymarin (21.0 μg/mL), compared to 12.7 μg/mL for the positive control chitosan nanoparticles. Cytotoxicity was evaluated in Vero cells, with CC50 values of 13 μg/mL for curcumin, 18 μg/mL for gallic acid, 73 μg/mL for quercetin, and 65 μg/mL for silymarin.
48 preclinical studies support the efficacy of curcumin for COVID-19:
In Silico studies predict inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 with curcumin or metabolites via binding to the spikeA,5,10,12,18,21 (and specifically the receptor binding domainB,8,11,14), MproC,5,7,9-11,13,14,16,19,21,22,24,38, RNA-dependent RNA polymeraseD,11,20, ACE2E,12,13,15, nucleocapsidF,6,23, nsp10G,23, and helicaseH,27 proteins. In Vitro studies demonstrate inhibition of the spikeA,32 (and specifically the receptor binding domainB,41), MproC,17,32,38,40, ACE2E,41, and TMPRSS2I,41 proteins, and inhibition of spike-ACE2 interactionJ,25. In Vitro studies demonstrate efficacy in Calu-3K,39, A549L,32, 293TM,1, HEK293-hACE2N,17,30, 293T/hACE2/TMPRSS2O,31, Vero E6P,7,11,21,30,32,34,35,37,39, and SH-SY5YQ,29 cells. Curcumin is predicted to inhibit the interaction between the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein receptor binding domain and the human ACE2 receptor for the delta and omicron variants8, decreases pro-inflammatory cytokines induced by SARS-CoV-2 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells37, alleviates SARS-CoV-2 spike protein-induced mitochondrial membrane damage and oxidative stress1, may limit COVID-19 induced cardiac damage by inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway which mediates the profibrotic effects of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein on cardiac fibroblasts42, and inhibits SARS-CoV-2 ORF3a ion channel activity, which contributes to viral pathogenicity and cytotoxicity33.
Study covers quercetin and curcumin.

drug to be approved in 2020 for the treatment of hospitalized or non-hospitalized patients at high risk for COVID-19 disease progression (Lamb 2020). Following Remdesivir, Tocilizumab (Actemra®) and Baricitinib (Olumiant®), immunosuppressive drugs used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, were approved in 2022 for the treatment of COVID-19 in hospitalized adults who are receiving systemic corticosteroids and require supplemental oxygen, ventilation, or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) (Assadiasl et al. 2021; Bozorgmanesh et al. 2021) . Spike protein is a surface protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus that mediates viral adhesion and fusion by interaction with the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor expressed on the surface of the host cells (Scialo et al. 2020) . Spike-ACE2 protein-protein interaction (PPI) is a significant step in virus replication and has been
