Description
A triterpene with diverse biological activities; reduces cell viability, expression SOD1, SOD2, and SOD3, and production of ROS in PC3 prostate cancer cells; reduces hypoxia-induced apoptosis in H9c2 cardiomyocytes from 2-100 μg/ml; inhibits LPS-induced activation of NF-κB, release of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, and mitochondrial activity in primary mouse cortical microglia; reduces lung MPO activity, neutrophil infiltration, and NF-κB signaling, as well as BALF levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in a mouse model of LPS-induced lung injury at 20 and 40 mg/kg; reduces weight gain and hepatic lipid accumulation and improves insulin sensitivity in a mouse model of high-fat diet-induced obesity
