Food plant diversity in bioactive compounds makes them an exploitable resource in the search for effective natural products to prevent or treat viral infections. Therefore, in the framework aimed at studying the antiviral properties of extractive mixtures from fruits (and their waste) grown in the Campania Region (Italy), jujube drupes ( Mill.) were our focus. The drupes were dissected into their peel, pulp and seed parts, each of which was extracted by ultrasound-assisted maceration and further fractionated, thus obtaining, beyond the sugar fraction, a polyphenolic fraction and a lipid fraction. UHPLC-HR MS/MS tools highlighted that the polyphenolic component of the seed was strongly dissimilar from that of the edible parts, being constituted by swertisin and its derivatives. Moreover, the peel mostly accounted for triglycosylated flavonols, whereas the pulp was rich in volatile aromatic glycosides. Among lipids, -coumaroyl triterpenes mainly characterized the peel. All fractions were screened for their cytotoxicity, and non-toxic concentrations of each extract were tested against herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) by plaque assays. Molecular tests and Western blot analyses were also carried out. The jujube mixtures, in detail the peel and pulp polyphenolic fractions, and peel lipophilic fraction (the latter enriched mainly in ursane-type triterpenes), showed a marked inhibitory activity against HSV-1 acting in the early stages of viral infection and preventing attachment of the virus to the host cell. The acquired data suggest jujube active mixtures as promising candidates for the prevention and treatment of herpetic lesions.
