- 19. Anti-Inflammatory Effects Andrographolide reduce the inflammation caused by 1) Histamine 2) Dimethyl benzene 3) Adrenaline The secretion of proinflmmatory cytokines from macrophages stimulated and promoted by lipopolysaccharide Results in increased production of NO that lead to inflammation Andrographolide incubated with macrophages have been reported to inhibit LPS-stimulated NO production in a concentration-dependent manner
- 20. Immunomodulatory Activity Andrographolide stimulate antibody production Andrographolide stimulate an innate immune response which is measured according to 1) The macrophage migration 2) Phagocytosis 3) Proliferation of splenic lymphocytes

- 22. Hepatoprotective Activity A. paniculata as a hepatostimulant and hepatoprotective agent Andrographolide attenuated concanavalin A-induced liver injury and inhibited hepatocyte apoptosis. Andrographolide induce hepatic microsomal lipid peroxidation.
- 23. Antimalarial Effects It exhibit antimalarial activity Chemical constituents like 1) Andrographolide 2) Neoandrographolide 3) Deoxyandrographolide Shows anti-malarial activity against Plasmodium berghei
- 24. Anti-HIV Effects Andrographolide administration significantly improved the CD4+ lymphocyte count from a baseline mean of 405 cells/mm3 to 501 cells/mm3 in HIV positive patients.

- 36. Comments In market, and in published Oriental literature it is mixed with Chirayita sometimes. Once it had been considered as substitute for Quinine and its preparation was available as liquid extract of Kalmegh.
