Abstract
Andrographolide is a natural antibiotic that has the ability to dispel heat, detoxify, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain. Recent research has shown that it can exert anti-inflammatory effects via multiple pathways and multiple targets (mediated by NF-κB, JAK/STAT, T cell receptor, and other signaling pathways). It can inhibit human lung cancer cells, colon cancer cells, osteosarcoma cells, and other tumor cells, as well as reduce bacterial virulence and inhibit virus-induced cell apoptosis. It can also regulate inflammatory mediator expression to protect the nervous system and effectively prevent mental illness. Additionally, andrographolide regulates the immune system, treats cardiovascular and cerebral vascular diseases, protects the liver, and the gallbladder. It is clear that andrographolide has a huge range of potential applications. The mechanism of andrographolide’s anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, and nervous system defense in recent years have been reviewed in this article.

Abstract
Andrographis paniculata (AP) is a medicinal plant that is traditionally used in Indian, Chinese, Malay, Thai, and Oriental system of medicines to treat various disorders. AP consists of andrographolide (AD), 14-deoxy-11,12-didehydroandrographolide (DDAD), and neoandrographolide (NAD) as major diterpene lactones which has extremely bitter properties; therefore, AP is commonly called "King of bitters." AD, DDAD, and NAD are reported to possess therapeutic values such as antioxidant, immunostimulatory, hepatoprotective, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-rheumatoidal, anti-malarial, anti-leishmanial, anti-fertility, anti-obesity, antipyretic, and antimicrobial attributes. According to the Indian Pharmacopoeia, the leaves and tender shoots of AP yield up to 1%, 0.16%, and 0.11% of AD, DDAD, and NAD, respectively, on a dry-weight basis. However, variability in the accumulation of AD, DDAD, and NAD in plants has been reported with respect to species, genotype, season, phenological stage, plant part used, and geography of a region of cultivation. Therefore, cell and tissue culture systems especially cell, shoot, and adventitious root cultures are explored as alternatives for constant and higher production of AD, DDAD, and NAD. This review explores the prospects of exploiting the plant cell and tissue culture systems for the controlled production of AD, DDAD, and NAD. Various strategies such as elicitation by using biological and chemical elicitors are explored for the enhancement of accumulation of AD, DDAD, and NAD in cell and organ cultures. KEY POINTS: • This review explores the possibilities of diterpene lactone production from cell and organ cultures. • Various strategies are explored for the enhanced accumulation of AD, DDAD, and NAD in cell and organ cultures. • Prospects of diterpene lactone production are highlighted.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is one of the growing epidemics of the globe. This study was aimed to evaluate the anti-NAFLD effect of selected IAN derivatives using in silico, in vitro and in vivo models. In silico tools viz., DataWarrior, SwissADME and Gaussian 09 were used to predict the pharmacokinetic properties and electronic distribution patterns of the derivatives; docking analysis was done with Autodock against PPARα. Toxicities of the derivatives were assessed in HepG2 cells using MTT assay. Anti-NAFLD efficacies of the derivatives were assessed in free fatty acid induced steatotic HepG2 cells. In vivo anti-NAFLD effect of active isoandrographolide (IAN) derivative, 19-propionyl isoandrographolide (IAN-19P) was assessed in High Fat Diet fed rats. In silico and in vitro studies indicated that IAN-19P showed improved drug-likeness and drug score. The toxicity of IAN-19P to HepG2 cells was comparatively less than IAN and other derivatives. In free fatty acid induced steatotic HepG2 cells, treatment with IAN-19P significantly lowered intracellular triglyceride content and leakage of LDH and transaminases. Treating High Fat Diet fed animals with IAN-19P significantly lowered plasma lipids, transaminases, LDH and GGT levels. The treatment with IAN-19P upregulated the expressions of PPARα and CPT-1. IAN-19P did not produce any noticeable adverse effect till 2 g/kg concentration in acute and 250 mg/kg concentration in subacute toxicity studies. This study indicated the beneficial effect of IAN-19P for the treatment of NAFLD; however robust investigations are needed to establish the potential of IAN-19P to treat NAFLD.

Andrographolide and Its 14-Aryloxy Analogues Inhibit Zika and Dengue Virus Infection. Molecules 2020; 25:molecules25215037.

Abstract
Andrographolide is a labdene diterpenoid with potential applications against a number of viruses, including the mosquito-transmitted dengue virus (DENV). In this study, we evaluated the anti-viral activity of three 14-aryloxy analogues (ZAD-1 to ZAD-3) of andrographolide against Zika virus (ZIKV) and DENV. Interestingly, one analogue, ZAD-1, showed better activity against both ZIKV and DENV than the parental andrographolide. A two-dimension (2D) proteomic analysis of human A549 cells treated with ZAD-1 compared to cells treated with andrographolide identified four differentially expressed proteins (heat shock 70 kDa protein 1 (HSPA1A), phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (PGK1), transketolase (TKT) and GTP-binding nuclear protein Ran (Ran)). Western blot analysis confirmed that ZAD-1 treatment downregulated expression of HSPA1A and upregulated expression of PGK1 as compared to andrographolide treatment. These results suggest that 14-aryloxy analogues of andrographolide have the potential for further development as anti-DENV and anti-ZIKV agents.

Abstract
The Zika endemic established by imported and local transmission is of significant concern and effective anti-ZIKV drugs remain an urgent unmet need. As andrographolide was identified to be an inhibitor of DENV and CHIKV and the importance of quinoline structure against infectious diseases was considered, we are interested in studying its andrographolide derivatives with quinoline moiety against Zika virus infection. In addition to screening eight in-house derivatives of andrographolide, sixteen new derivatives were designed, synthesized and tested against Zika virus infection. Among these compounds, two most potent anti-Zika compounds of 19-acetylated 14α-(5',7'-dichloro-8'-quinolyloxy) derivative 17b and 14β-(8'-quinolyloxy)-3,19- diol derivative 3 with the highest selectivity were discovered. The SAR analysis indicates that rational and optimal combined modification/s at 3-, 14-, or 19-positions can make derivatives less toxic and more potent against Zika infection, and both of 3 and 17b are suitable as leads for designing new generation of andrographolide derivatives with quinoline or its structure- and property-related moieties against Zika virus and other arboviruses.

Abstract
Euphorbia factor L3 , a lathyrane diterpenoid extracted from Euphorbia lathyris, was found to display good anti-inflammatory activity with very low cytotoxicity. To find more potent anti-inflammatory drugs, two series of Euphorbia factor L3 derivatives with fatty and aromatic acids were designed and synthesized. Among them, lathyrane derivative 5n exhibited most potent inhibition on LPS-induced NO production in RAW264.7 cells with no obvious cytotoxicity. To determine the key characteristics of Euphorbia factor L3 derivatives that contribute to anti-inflammatory activity, we conducted a structure-activity relationship study of these compounds.

Abstract
Metastatic osteosarcoma usually has an unsatisfactory response to the current standard chemotherapy and causes poor prognosis. Currently, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is reported as a critical event in osteosarcoma metastasis. Glaucocalyxin A, a bioactive ent-kauranoid diterpenoid, exerts anti-cancer effect on osteosarcoma by inducing apoptosis in previous study. However, the effect of Glaucocalyxin A on EMT and metastasis of osteosarcoma is unclear. In this study, we investigated the potential mechanisms of Glaucocalyxin A on EMT and metastasis of osteosarcoma. We found that Glaucocalyxin A inhibited migration and invasion of MG-63 and 143B cells. Moreover, Glaucocalyxin A increased the protein and mRNA levels of E-cadherin and decreased the protein and transcription expression of N-cadherin, Vimentin. Glaucocalyxin A also inhibited the protein and mRNA levels of EMT-associated transcription factor including Snail and Slug. Furthermore, Glaucocalyxin A inhibited transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)-induced migration, invasion and EMT of low-metastatic osteosarcoma U2OS cells. Glaucocalyxin A inhibited TGF-β-induced phosphorylation of Smad 2/3 in osteosarcoma U2OS cells. Finally, we established transplanted metastatic models of highly metastatic osteosarcoma 143B cells. Glaucocalyxin A inhibited lung metastasis in vivo. Interestingly, Glaucocalyxin A increased the protein expression of E-cadherin and reduced the protein expression of N-cadherin and Vimentin. Glaucocalyxin A inhibited the protein expression of Snail and Slug in vivo. In summary, this study demonstrated that Glaucocalyxin A inhibited EMT and TGF-β1-induced EMT by inhibiting TGF-β1/Smad2/3 signaling pathway in osteosarcoma. Therefore, Glaucocalyxin A might be a promising candidate against the metastasis of human osteosarcoma.

Andrographolide and its potent derivative exhibit anticancer effects against imatinib-resistant chronic myeloid leukemia cells by downregulating the Bcr-Abl oncoprotein.

Abstract
Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is clinically treated with imatinib, which inhibits the kinase activity of the Bcr-Abl oncoprotein. However, imatinib resistance remains a common clinical issue. Andrographolide, the major compound of the medicinal plant Andrographis paniculata, was reported to exhibit anticancer activity. In this study, we explored the therapeutic potential of andrographolide and its derivative, NCTU-322, against both imatinib-sensitive and imatinib-resistant human CML cell lines. Both andrographolide and NCTU-322 downregulated the Bcr-Abl oncoprotein in imatinib-resistant CML cells through an Hsp90-dependent mechanism similar to that observed in imatinib-sensitive CML cells. In addition, NCTU-322 had stronger effects than andrographolide on downregulation of Bcr-Abl oncoprotein, induction of Hsp90 cleavage and cytotoxicity of CML cells. Notably, andrographolide and NCTU-322 could induce differentiation, mitotic arrest and apoptosis of both imatinib-sensitive and imatinib-resistant CML cells. Finally, the anticancer activity of NCTU-322 against imatinib-resistant CML cells was demonstrated in vivo. In summary, our data demonstrated that andrographolide and NCTU-322 inhibit Bcr-abl function via a mechanism different from that of imatinib, and they induced multiple anticancer effects in both imatinib-sensitive and resistant CML cells. Our findings demonstrate that andrographolide and NCTU-322 are potential therapeutic agents again CML.

Abstract
CONTEXT Andrographolide and warfarin are often used together in clinics in China. However, the herb-drug interaction between andrographolide and warfarin is still unknown. OBJECTIVE This study investigates the herb-drug interaction between andrographolide and warfarin in vivo and in vitro. MATERIALS AND METHODS A sensitive and reliable LC-MS/MS method was developed for the determination of warfarin in male Sprague-Dawley rats plasma, and then the pharmacokinetics of orally administered warfarin (0.5 mg/kg) with or without andrographolide (30 mg/kg/day for 7 days) pretreatment was investigated. In addition, Sprague-Dawley rat liver microsomes incubation systems were used to support the in vivo pharmacokinetic data and investigate its potential mechanism. RESULTS The method validation results showed that a sensitive and reliable LC-MS/MS method was developed for the determination of warfarin in rat plasma samples. The pharmacokinetic results indicated that co-administration of andrographolide could increase the systemic exposure of warfarin significantly, including area under the curve (118.92 ± 18.08 vs. 60.58 ± 9.46 μg × h/mL), maximum plasma concentration (3.32 ± 0.41 vs. 2.35 ± 0.25 μg/mL) and t1/2 (22.73 ± 3.28 vs. 14.27 ± 2.67 h). Additionally, the metabolic stability of warfarin increased from 23.5 ± 4.7 to 38.7 ± 6.1 min with the pretreatment of andrographolide, and the difference was significant (p < 0.05). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION In conclusion, andrographolide could increase the systemic exposure of warfarin in rats when andrographolide and warfarin were co-administered, and possibly by slowing down the metabolism of warfarin in rat liver by inhibiting the activity of CYP3A4 or CYP2C9.

Abstract
Andrographolide is a major bioactive constituent of Andrographis paniculata that has been shown in vitro to have antiviral activity against a number of viruses, including the mosquito transmitted dengue virus (DENV). However, how andrographolide exerts an anti-DENV effect remains unclear. This study therefore sought to further understand the mechanism of action of andrographolide in inhibiting DENV infection of liver cells using a proteomic based approach. Both 1 dimension (D) and 2D proteome systems were used. Initial data was generated through andrographolide treatment of HepG2 cells without DENV infection (1D analysis), while subsequent data was generated through a combination of andrographolide treatment and DENV infection (2D analysis). A total of 17 (1D) and 18 (2D) proteins were identified as differentially regulated. The analyses identified proteins involved in chaperone activities, as well as energy production. In particular evidence suggested an important role for GRP78 and the unfolded protein response in mediating the anti-DENV activity of andrographolide, which might, in part, explain the broad antiviral activity of andrographolide.

Abstract
Andrographolide (AD) is the time-honoured pharmacologically active constituent of the traditionally renowned medicinal plant-Andrographis paniculata. Advancements in the target-oriented drug discovery process have further unravelled the immense therapeutic credibility of another unique molecule-neoandrographolide (NAD). The escalated market demand of these anti-cancer diterpenes is increasingly facing unrelenting hurdles of demand and supply disparity, attributable to their limited yield. Callus and adventitious root cultures were generated to explore their biosynthetic potentials which first time revealed NAD production along with AD. Optimization of the types and concentrations of auxins along with media form and cultivation time led to the successful tuning towards establishing adventitious roots as a superior production alternative for both AD/NAD. Supplementation of IBA to the NAA + Kn-containing MS medium boosted the overall growth and AD/NAD synthesis in the adventitious roots. Compared to control leaves, the adventitious root exhibited about 2.61- and 8.8-fold higher contents of AD and NAD, respectively. The qRT-PCR involving nine key pathway genes was studied, which revealed upregulation of GGPS1 and HMGR1/2 genes and downregulation of DXS1/2 and HDR1/2 genes in the adventitious root as compared to that in the control leaves. Such observations highlight that in vitro cultures can serve as efficient production alternatives for AD/NAD as the cytosolic genes (HMGR1/2 of MVA pathway) are competent enough to take over from the plastidial genes (DXS1/2 and HDR1/2 of MEP pathway), provided the accredited first branch-point regulatory gene (GGPS) expression and the culture requirements are optimally fulfilled.

Abstract
Antibacterials (which restore gut flora balance) and immunosuppressants (which correct immune defects) are two important and effective therapeutic agents for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in clinical use today. Since the structural skeleton of andrographolide, isolated from Andrographis paniculata, has become known as a natural antibiotic with anti-inflammation and heat-clearing and detoxifying properties, 14-aryloxy andrographolide derivatives have been designed, synthesized, and tested for their antibacterial effects on E. coli, S. aureus, and E. faecalis, which are related to IBD. It has been discovered in this study that the andrographolide skeleton is more selective against E. faecalis, the 14-aryloxy group with basicity is important for antibacterial functions, and the 14-(8'-quinolinyloxy) group is a good pharmacophore with antibacterial activity. In addition, we found that 7b1 and 8b1 are good and selective inhibitors of E. faecalis; two 14β-(8'-quinolinyloxy) andrographolide derivatives, 6b17 and 9b, exhibit good activity against E. coli, S. aureus, and E. faecalis. Likewise and importantly, further exploration of immunosuppressant activity for IBD shows that compound 7b1 is a selective inhibitor of the TNF-α/NF-κB signaling pathway, whereas 8b1 is selectively active against the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway; moreover, the compounds 6b17 and 9b are active in inhibiting the IL-6/STAT3, TLR4/NF-κB, and TNF-α/NF-κB signaling pathways. Based on these results, we have further focused on the development of dual function inhibitors of IBD as antibacterial and immunosuppressant agents by structural modification of andrographolide.

Abstract
Phytochemical survey of the methanol extract of the dried aerial parts of Andrographis paniculata led to the isolation of major labdane diterpenes, namely 14-deoxy-11,12-didehydroandrographolide, andrographolide and neoandrographolide. Andrographolide was found to be the major phytoconstituent of the plant which was biologically active. For better physiochemical characteristics and bioefficacy, andrographolide is subjected to semi-synthetic modifications. However, presence of several free hydroxyl groups associated with this molecule make it quite polar and poorly soluble in many organic solvents and hence unsuitable for synthetic modifications. One way of resolving its solubility issue is to protect 1,3-diol quantitatively under mild reaction condition without effecting other functional groups. Reaction conditions were optimised using different solvent systems and catalysts towards this direction. X-ray structure of 3,19-isopropylidene-14-deoxy-11,12-didehydroandrographolide is being reported here for the first time. Isolated compounds and derivatives were confirmed by spectral analysis or X-ray data analysis.

Abstract
Modern pharmacological research has revealed that andrographolide has various functions, including anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and anti-viral effects, immunoregulation, treating cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and prevention and treatment of alcoholic liver injury. The present study investigated whether andrographolide suppresses the proliferation of human colon cancer cell through the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/nuclear factor (NF)-κB/matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) signaling pathway. The MTT assay and lactate dehydrogenase assay were used to evaluate the anticancer effects of andrographolide on cell proliferation and cytotoxicity in human colon cancer SW620 cells. Flow cytometry was used to analyze the anticancer effects of andrographolide on apoptosis by Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate/propidium iodide kit. The effects of andrographolide on the activity of caspase-3/9 were measured using ELISA. Western blot analysis was also used to analyze the protein expression of TLR4, myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 (MyD88), NF-κB-p65 and MMP-9. In the present study, it was found that andrographolide suppressed the cell proliferation, augmented cytotoxicity, evoked cell apoptosis and activated caspase-3/9 activities in human colon cancer SW620 cells. The results revealed that the anti-proliferation effects of andrographolide on the SW620 cells was associated with the inhibition of TLR4, MyD88, NF-κB-p65 and MMP-9 signaling activation. The results suggest that andrographolide is a promising drug for treatment of human colon cancer via suppression of the TLR4/NF-κB/MMP-9 signaling pathway.

Abstract
A series of novel thioether andrographolide derivatives were synthesized by incorporating various aromatic (or heteroaromatic) substituents into C-12 or 14-OH. A total of 38 andrographolide derivatives were prepared and evaluated for their in vitro inhibitory activity against cancer cells. All the derivatives exhibited better activity against prostate cancer cells (PC-3) than the parent compound. Among these, compounds 6a, 8, 9, 17, 19, 31, and 32 demonstrated good activity. These compounds were further evaluated for their anticancer activities against other cancer cell lines including MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, and A549. Compounds 31 and 32 showed excellent activity against MCF-7 with an IC50 value of 0.7 and 0.6 μM, respectively. The absolute configuration of 15a was determined via single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The activity of 6a (12S), which was the precursor of 15a, was better than that of the diastereoisomer 6b (12R). Moreover, the preliminary structure-activity relationship has been summarized. The results obtained herein are very important for further optimization of andrographolide.

Abstract
Background: Andrographolide (Andro) is a “natural antibiotic” as well as a typical insoluble drug. The purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility of commercially available silica (SiO2) as a carrier of solid dispersion to enhance the dissolution of Andro. Materials and Methods: The solvent evaporation method was adopted, and a series of process parameters were studied to prepare a solid dispersion. Andro, SiO2, physical mixture, and solid dispersion were characterized with respect to particle size distribution, special surface area, pore volume, and scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction studies. Results: Single factor test suggested the best preparation of solid dispersion was the drug and carrier (SiO2B) ratio of 1:8, with tetrahydrofuran as the solvent, and a recovery temperature of 50°C. Compared to crude drug and mixture, solid dispersion was found to form a unique structure to disperse the drug and displayed superior performance in rapid dissolution. Conclusion: The present study signifies the commercially available SiO2 is an excellent but cheap carrier to improve the dissolution of Andro. Our results provide a highly operability approach for improving the dissolution of insoluble natural products and are beneficial for the clinical effects improvement. SUMMARY The potential of commercially available silica as a carrier for enhancing the insoluble drug dissolution was investigated Factors affecting the dissolution of solid dispersion were investigated Solid dispersion formed a unique structure to disperse the drug and release drug rapidly Commercially available silica is an excellent but cheap carrier to improve the dissolution of Andro.

Abstract
Multi-drug therapy is described as a simultaneous or sequential administration of two or more drugs with similar or different mechanisms of action and is recognized as a more efficient solution to combat successfully, various ailments. Polymeric micelles (PMs) are self-assemblies of block copolymers providing numerous opportunities for drug delivery. To date various micellar formulations were studied for delivery of drugs, nutraceuticals and genes; a few of them are in clinical trials. It was observed that there is an immense need for the development of PMs embedding multiple therapeutic agents to combat various ailments, including cancers, HIV/AIDS, malaria, multiple sclerosis, hypertension, infectious diseases, cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, immune disorders and many psychiatric disorders. Several combinations of drug-drug, drug-nutraceutical, drug-gene and drug-siRNA explored to date are detailed in this review, with a special emphasis on their potential and future perspectives. A summary of various preparation methods, characterization techniques and applications of PMs are also provided. This review presents a holistic approach on multi-drug delivery using micellar carriers and emphasizes on the development of therapeutic hybrids embedding novel combinations for safer and effective therapy.

Abstract
Natural products represent an enormous source of pharmacologically useful compounds, and are often used as the starting point in modern drug discovery. Many biologically interesting natural products are however not being pursued as potential drug candidates, partly due to a lack of well-defined mechanism-of-action. Traditional in vitro methods for target identification of natural products based on affinity protein enrichment from crude cellular lysates cannot faithfully recapitulate protein-drug interactions in living cells. Reported herein are dual-purpose probes inspired by the natural product andrographolide, capable of both reaction-based, real-time bioimaging and in situ proteome profiling/target identification in live mammalian cells. Our results confirm that andrographolide is a highly promiscuous compound and engaged in covalent interactions with numerous previously unknown cellular targets in cell type-specific manner. We caution its potential therapeutic effects should be further investigated in detail.
