Mechanism of antagonistic effects of Andrographis paniculata methanolic extract against Staphylococcus aureus

Abstract: Taken together these results suggest that the low MIC of A. paniculata methanolic leaves extract (0.06 mg/mL) reduce HO toxicity and more importantly, was in itself effectively inhibitory against S. aureus. Further, our observations suggest that a probable mode of its inhibitory mechanism against S. aureus is by reducing total SOD activity through downregulation of sodA and sodM expressions.

“…This plant has been used in traditional medicine in Asia to treat inflammatory diseases such as respiratory disorders [ 10 ]. Methanolic extract (ME) from the leaves of Andrographis paniculata has been shown to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities [ 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 ]. Andrographolide (ANDRO) is the main bioactive compound of Andrographis paniculata [ 15 ].…”

“…Suppression of SOD activity results in decreased conversion of O 2 -to H 2 O 2 and consequently resulting in increased O 2 -levels and leads to oxidative stress mediated toxicity in S. aureus cells. Early reports demonstrated decreases in SOD activity in E. coli and S. aureus upon treatment with methanolic extract of A. paniculata, 2phenylethynylbutyltellurium (PEBT) and catechin [42][43][44] .…”
