Andrographolide is the principal bioactive diterpenoid lactone isolated from Andrographis paniculata (Burm. f.) Nees, a medicinal plant commonly known as King of Bitters or Chuanxinlian (穿心莲) in Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is one of the most extensively studied natural compounds for its broad spectrum of biological activities, particularly its potent anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, hepatoprotective, and antioxidant properties.

Andrographolide

The molecular structure of andrographolide features a unique diterpene skeleton with a γ-lactone ring, which is responsible for its biological activity.

Its mechanisms of action include inhibition of NF‑κB activation, reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokine production (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β), modulation of immune cell function, and activation of Nrf2-mediated antioxidant pathways.

Andrographolide has been the subject of numerous clinical studies for its potential in supporting respiratory health, immune defense, and liver function.

It is widely used in dietary supplements, herbal formulations, and research applications.
