α-Boswellic acid is a pentacyclic triterpene and an isomer of β-boswellic acid (Item No. 11693) originally isolated from B. serrata.{46214,46215} It increases Survivin and Reelin expression, decreases production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and levels of hyperphosphorylated Tau, and inhibits apoptosis induced by streptozotocin (Item No. 13104) in primary fetal human astrocytes.{46214} α-Boswellic acid (200 mg/kg) increases gastric juice pH and production of gastric wall mucus and decreases leukocyte infiltration, submucosal edema, and the formation of hemorrhagic lesions in a rat model of ethanol-induced gastric injury.{46215}
