Abstract

Ethnopharmacological relevance Centella asiatica (L.) Urb or Indian pennywort is a plant of ethnopharmacological relevance, commonly called as Brahmi in South India known for its antimicrobial property in gut and for the treatment of other gut ailments. Natural anti-virulence drugs that disarm pathogens by directly targeting virulence factors or the cell viability and are thus preferred over antibiotics as these drugs impose limited selection pressure for resistance development. In this regard, an in-vitro experimental study was conducted to know the effect of extract of Centella asiatica(L.) Urb. on cholera toxin, gene expression and its vibriocidal effect on five standard strains of Vibrio cholerae; IDH03097 (El Tor variant), N16961 (El Tor), O395 (Classical) as well as five clinical strains (Haitian variant). Aim of the study To study the effect of extract of Centella asiatica on Vibrio cholerae. Materials and methods Crude extract was prepared from the leaves and stem part of the plant. The vibriocidal concentration was tested at different concentrations of the extract. The amount of cholera toxin released from the strains before and after exposure to the extract of Centella asiatica to Vibrio cholerae was measured using Bead ELISA. ctxA gene expression in the strains before and after exposure to extract of Centella asiatica was measured using quantitative real time PCR. All the above assays were performed with commercially obtained asiaticoside as well. Results The vibri…

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
