| Abstract | Antibiotics can be classified based upon drug-target interaction and lethality. Bactericidal drugs, which target cell wall/membrane synthesis, DNA replication and repair or protein synthesis, induce hydroxyl radical leading to the bacterial cell death with extreme efficacy. The antibiotic mechanism of the bactericidal drugs is followed by stimulating oxidation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydrate (NADH) via the electron transport chain that is dependent upon the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. The five herbal samples, Houttuynia cordata Thunb (HCT), Chrysanthemum lavandulifolum (CL), Patrinia scabiosaefolia (PS), Angelica dahurica Bentham et Hooker (ADBH) and Agrimonia pilosa (AP) were extracted to acquire the fractions, and then inoculated to investigate their antibiotic effect against the bacteria Escherichia coli O157:H7 through the disk diffusion method. Total RNA of the treated cells was isolated to compare and analyze their gene expression profiling. Results from this study indicate that the molecular mechanisms of simultaneous multi-target antibiotic efficacy of the five herbal samples include bacterial cell wall/membrane synthesis, DNA replication and repair, and protein synthesis. The antibiotic mechanisms were associated with the hydroxyl radical damage followed by overproduction of superoxide. Moreover, inhibition of multidrug resistance system and etiological factors are encouraging development of novel antibiotics. Our study suggests that the five herbal samples have a molecular mechanism similar to that of bactericidal drugs that is induction of hydroxyl radical damage which leads to bacterial cell death. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
