ancer has been considered to be very dreadful disease.
Holmskioldia sanguinea
is a large climbing shrub found in the
Himalayas at an altitude of 5,000 ft and preliminary investigation showed the excellent yield of andrographolide and subjected
for the anticancer activity. Protective effect of
Holmskioldia sanguinea
leaf ethanolic extract has been investigated against Ehrlich
ascites carcinoma (EAC) and Dalton’s ascites lymphoma (DAL) in Swiss albino mice and to evaluate the possible mechanism
of action. The enzymatic antioxidant status was studied on tumor bearing mice, which shows the potential of the compound to
possess significant free radical scavenging property and revealed significant tumour regression and prolonged survival time. The
isolated bioactive molecule andrographolide from
Holmskioldia sanguinea
yields (2.5%) when subjected to HPTLC/HPLC analysis.
The cellular defense system constituting the superoxide dismutase, catalyses was enhanced whereby the lipid peroxidation
content was restricted to a larger extent. The
Holmskioldia sanguinea
is a new source of andrographolide and demonstrated the
potency in treatment of cancer.
