Get Permission Patil, Joshi, and Prajapati: A review on plants possesses anti tubercular activity


Introduction

Plants have been used for human and animal welfare since the beginning of time and according to several scientists, there are over 25,000 biologically active chemicals. The plant itself is an entire bioagent for treatment. Tuberculosis is the second most prevalent bacterial infection. It is a communicable disease caused by the organism Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This bacterium is stained by Ziehl–Neelsen dye. M. tuberculosis is an internal pathogenic bacterium that divides its cells only occasionally, has a mycolic acid coating and is non-motile. Tuberculosis (TB) is brought on by microbes that travel from person to person through the air. Although TB most frequently affects the lungs, it can also harm the brain, kidneys, lymph nodes, bones, spine, and skin. TB bacteria move from the lungs through the blood or lymphatic system to different parts of the body (Cobat et al., 2013; Walker & Whittlesea, 2012; World Health Organization, n.d.). The World Health Organization (WHO) declared tuberculosis (TB) a worldwide emergency in 1993 as a result of an upsurge in cases of TB being recorded in nations on all continents (World Health Organization, n.d.). Over 4,000 people each day die from this disease, which also claims 1.2–1.5 million lives annually and has infected 1.7–2 billion individuals globally. With as many as 13 million latent tuberculosis infections in the United States (LTBI) (World Health Organization, n.d.). 5–10% of these LTBI patients will evolve to active tuberculosis. There are roughly 15 million active tuberculosis occurrences each year, with India, Indonesia, South Africa, Nigeria, the Philippines, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and China suffering the heaviest burden. Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) epidemics in several parts of the world have raised further concerns. A bacterium that is resistant to at least isoniazid and rifampin, the two most effective TB medications, it causes multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR TB). A minimum of four second-line anti-TB medications should be used in the MDR regimen. All regimens should contain a second-line injectable medication, other second-line oral medications, and a later-generation fluoroquinolone such as levofloxacin or moxifloxacin (Seung et al., 2015). An uncommon form of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR TB) known as extensively drug-resistant TB (XDR TB) is resistant to isoniazid, rifampin, a fluoroquinolone, and at least one of three injectable second-line medications (i.e., amikacin, kanamycin, or capreomycin). Seung et al., 2015; Drug-resistant TB requires a more complicated, expensive, and prolonged course of therapy than drug-susceptible infections (Iseman, 2002; World Health Organization, n.d.). In this review, we discuss the biological source, geographical source, chemical constituents, extraction method, and type of plant extract with anti-tubercular activity. And also, the reported activity of different plants.(Abdulhamid et.al. 2021, Almeida et.al. 2019).1, 2, 3

Materials and Methods

The study of the literature review was conducted by studying the research papers and review articles concentrating on the traditional plants having “Antituberculosis activity or anti-mycobacterial activity”, in electronic databases like PubMed, Science Direct, Scopus, and Google Scholar.4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Morphological description: (Amara et al., 2017; Singh et al., 2017)

  1. Height - 1-2 meters

  2. Stem - Upright, stout, and fibrous

  3. Root - Long stout of approximately 60 cm with a characteristic odour

  4. Leaves - Lobate, stalked, membranous, irregularly toothed

Chemical constituents: Amara et al., 2017; Singh et al., 2017

The roots mainly contain Monoterpenes, Sesquiterpenoids, Flavonoids, Lignans, Triterpenes, Steroids, Glycosides, etc. The roots are a rich source of sesquiterpenoids especially sesquiterpene lactones. The principal compounds are Dehydrocostus lactone and Costunolide.

Pharmacological activity: (Amara et al., 2017; Singh et al., 2017; Zahara et al., 2014b)

Anti-tubercular activity: Using a fluorometric Alamar Blue microassay (FMABA), the in-vitro antimycobacterial activity of S. lappa was examined. The results showed that costunolide and dehydrocostuslactone, with MICs of 6.25 and 12.5 mg/L, respectively, were primarily responsible for the antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium TB H37Rv. It was discovered that the combination's antimycobacterial activity was superior to that of the individual compounds, and as a result, both lactones displayed synergistic action, with an X/Y value of 0.5 at a concentration of 1/8 of the MIC for each component.11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16

Discussion

The rapid growth of drug resistance to the currently available medications makes the development of new, efficient, and cost-effective anti-TB treatments necessary (Gupta et al., 2014). Terpenoids, alkaloids, peptides, phenolics, and coumarins are only a few of the groups of plant-derived anti-mycobacterial chemicals (BS Thorat, 2017). As a result, medicinal plants continue to be a valuable source for discovering new therapeutic compounds. Less negative side effects, higher patient acceptance due to long-standing use, lower costs, and cultivability make employing antimicrobial chemicals from medicinal plants advantageous. These compounds are renewable in nature and have fewer adverse effects (Gupta et al., 2014). This review provides a thorough analysis of 12 plants namely Saussurea lappa, Bauhinia purpurea, Acorus calamus, Morinda citrifolia, Alpinia galanga, Acacia nilotica, Micromelum hirsutum, Aegle marmelos, Acalypha indica, Juniperus procera, Plumbago zeylanica, Ocotea notata those have anti-tuberculosis activity. All 12 plants have different principal chemical constituents that are responsible for the anti-mycobacterial activity. The phytochemical constituents of all plants are active against the mycobacterium bacteria with characteristic mechanisms of action that can’t cause resistance against bacteria, which is the markable property of the plant’s chemical constituent. Further studies are required for the preparation of an effective herbal formulation for tuberculosis treatment that also provides the hepatoprotective effect unlike the synthetic drugs available for tuberculosis treatment.

Conclusion

We conclude that Medicinal plant products are good alternatives to allopathic medicine with fewer side effects and with less chances of resistance. Because polyherbal formulations act by different mechanisms to inhibit the growth of bacteria. More research is required to explore the plant-based treatment of TB.
