Article Abstract
Introduction: Andrographolide is a bioactive component found in the medicinal herb Andrographis paniculata (Burm. f.) Wall. ex Nees (Family-Acanthaceae) is well-known for its ability to cure liver disorders and as a bitter tonic.
Objective: In this study, the rate of degradation of andrographolide was examined over the course of a year of storage.
Materials And Methods: New and old (1-year storage) A. paniculata powder samples were used in the study. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to assess the concentration of andrographolide after its extraction using ethanol as the solvent.
Results: The findings demonstrated a 69.26% progressive deterioration of andrographolide over the storage period. Temperature and crystallinity are two factors that affect how quickly andrographolide degrades.
Conclusion: The results emphasize how crucial it is to retain the effectiveness of A. paniculata extract by avoiding prolonged storage or by providing ideal storage conditions.

Introduction: Shenlian formula (SL) has been widely used to treat various diseases, including type 2 diabetes mellitus and atherosclerosis (AS). Pathological states can significantly alter drug pharmacokinetics (PK) compared to normal physiology, primarily by modulating biological membrane permeability and metabolic enzyme activity, thereby affecting drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. However, the specific influence of AS on the PK profile of SL remains uncharacterized.

The diterpene andrographolide, a nature-derived product, exerts a wide range of pharmacological effects, including anti-inflammatory, antiviral, immunostimulatory, and anticancer activities, due to its ability to target multiple pathways. In this study, some andrographolide derivatives of an enlarged decalin structure with a seven-membered ring or an isoxazole-fused decalin structure were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their activity against cancer cell growth and angiogenesis. Among them, compound AGW-11 (designated as compound 8) showed potent and broad-spectrum anticancer activity and anti-angiogenic activity in vitro.

Midlife obesity and high adiposity are recognized as risk factors for Alzheimer's disease (AD), with visceral adipose tissue (VAT) playing a central role due to its endocrine and metabolic activity. Disturbances in VAT metabolism and adipokine secretion exacerbate AD pathology. Andrographolide (Andro), known for its anti-diabetic properties, enhances neuronal glucose uptake and alleviates AD pathology.

Umbilical cord blood (UCB) units are an alternative source of human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) for allogeneic stem cell transplants. A large quantity of HSCs is needed but the low number of accessible cells from UCB has been a significant limitation. Improving the ex vivo growth of HSCs while preserving their functioning is required.
