Abstract: (403 Views)
Streptococcus pyogenes is a pathogen of significant public health concern. It is the most common cause of bacterial pharyngitis and is responsible for serious conditions such as streptococcal toxic shock syndrome, necrotizing fasciitis, impetigo, and scarlet fever. Additionally, S. pyogenes is involved in post-streptococcal sequelae, including acute glomerulonephritis, acute rheumatic fever, rheumatic heart disease, and reactive arthritis. The increasing antibiotic resistance of S. pyogenes has led to a growing interest in exploring alternative treatments, such as medicinal plants, which may provide effective and safer options for preventing and treating diseases caused by this bacterium. Today, there is an increasing interest in medicinal plants due to less side effects, ease of use, availability, and usually affordability. In conclusion, given the growing antibiotic resistance of Streptococcus pyogenes, this study investigates the inhibitory effects of medicinal plants against this pathogen. The aim is to assess the potential of these plants in preventing and treating diseases caused by S. pyogenes, as well as to elucidate their mechanisms of action on this bacterium.
