The utility of andrographolide (AN) in visceral leishmaniasis (VL) and cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is limited owing to poor solubility, hindered permeation, and unstable structure under physiological conditions. The present study mainly focuses on synthesizing of andrographolide-Soya-L-α-phosphatidyl choline (ANSPC) complex in ethanol and its characterization using various spectral and analytical techniques. Results from FT-IR, H NMR, ROSEY, and in silico docking techniques suggest ANSPC complex formation due to inter-molecular interaction between the hydrophilic head of SPC and hydroxyl group of AN present at 24th position.

Andrographolide (AN) inhibits cancer cells progression via multiple pathways like cell cycle arrest, mitochondrial apoptosis, NF-κβ inhibition, and antiangiogenesis mechanism. Despite multiple advantages, application of AN is very limited due to its low aqueous solubility (6.
