Description
A terpene alcohol with diverse biological activities; an insecticide that induces 100% mortality of C. maculatus at 16 µl in an alimentary substrate (LD50 = 0.714 µl); no adverse effects in rats at 10,000 ppm in the diet for 16 weeks; prevents lipid peroxidation, increases the levels of GSH, the activity of various antioxidant enzymes, and the levels of cytokines in a mouse skin model of TPA-induced oxidative stress and inflammation at a topical dose of 250 µg; inhibits HMG-CoA reductase and reduces lipogenesis in a hamster model of hyperlipidemia induced by an atherogenic diet at 100 mg/kg; induces apoptosis in and decreases viability of COLO 205 cancer cells (IC50 = 20 µM)
