cardioprotective, and anti-atherosclerotic properties. The present study aimed to evaluate the molecular interactions of ten
major rosemary phytochemicals, namely carnosic acid, rosmarinic acid, carnosol, ursolic acid, oleanolic acid, rosmanol,
betulinic acid, kaempferol, quercetin, and ?-sitosterol, against multiple target proteins associated with oxidative stress,
inflammation, atherosclerosis, foam cell formation, endothelial dysfunction, hepatoprotective and cell proliferation using
molecular docking. Docking analysis was performed using AutoDockVina, while protein-ligand interactions were visualized
using Discovery Studio Visualizer. ADMET analysis was carried out using Swiss ADME and pkCSM to predict the
pharmacokinetic and toxicity profiles of the selected phytochemicals. Several compounds exhibited favorable binding
affinities toward proteins involved in anti-inflammatory, anti-atherosclerotic, anti-foam cell formation, endothelial protective,
and anti-proliferative activities. ADMET analysis indicated that most phytochemicals possessed acceptable drug-likeness and
safety profiles, although kaempferol and quercetin showed predicted AMES toxicity, and ursolic acid, rosmanol, and betulinic
acid were predicted to exhibit hepatotoxicity. Overall, the findings suggest that rosemary phytochemicals possess promising
therapeutic potential and may serve as lead compounds for further experimental validation in the development of natural
agents for cardiovascular protection.</Abstract><Email>indhunatarajan2605@gmail.com</Email><articletype>Research</articletype><volume>16</volume><issue>2</issue><year>2026</year><keyword> Rosmarinus officinalis, Molecular docking, ADMET, Antioxidant, Anti-inflammatory, Cardioprotective, Antiatherosclerotic, Endothelial protection, Foam cell formation</keyword><AUTHORS>Dr. Saravanan C1, Indhu N</AUTHORS><afflication>1Professor Cum HOD Department of Pharmaceutical Analysis, Aadhibhagawan College of Pharmacy, Rantham Village, Thiruvannamalai District-604407, Tamil Nadu, India 2B.
