The selection of papers was made using the most relevant databases for the pharmacological activity on the basis of their phytochemical constituents. The review also goes over different in-vitro assay techniques and animal study conformation. The effect of Eulophia nuda extracts on the release of mediators such as nitric oxide (NO), superoxide, lysosomal enzyme, and myeloperoxidase activity of isolated murine peritoneal macrophages was studied at different doses. Eulophia nuda extracts were tested biochemically, hematologically, serologically, and histopathologically. The effect of eulophia nuda extracts on delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH), serum antibody response, and cyclophosphamide-induced myelosuppression in Swiss albino mice was studied.

Due to drug resistance and changes in the morphology of the fungi, treating fungal infections in humans is one of the most difficult cases to cure. Since 1960, the discovery of systemic antifungal chemotherapy has made a substantial contribution to the treatment of the majority of human fungal infections. Antifungal agents' chemotherapy rely completely on their ability to disrupt the integrity of the plasma membrane, cell wall, cell metabolism, mitotic activity, or inhibit fungal cell formation. Topically (to treat local infections) or systemically (to heal skin infections) antifungal treatments are available (systemic infections treatment). Structure, solubility, mode of action, pharmacokinetics, activity spectrum, therapeutic impact (fungicidal or fungistatic), and toxicity are all characteristics of antifungal medicines. The emerging of multi-drug-resistant fungal diseases has given rise to a new class of fungal infections. The availability of medications that target fungal cells rather than human cells further restricts pharmaceutical options for treating fungal infections. A brief systematic overview of the types of fungal infections, characteristics of antifungal medicines, and the future of antifungal therapy has been clearly stated in the current review so that it can be utilised in further upcoming study.","PeriodicalId":8537,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Pharmaceutical Research","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82359415","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
