Alisol A
Based on 5 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Alisol A is an orally active tetracyclic triterpenoid compound of the prototerpane type. Alisol A can be extracted from the rhizome of Alisma orientale. Alisol A activates AMPK/ACC/SREBP-1c, SIRT1, PPARα, inhibits MMP-2/-9, decreases inflammatory cytokine expression (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8). Alisol A has anti-tumor activity against breast cancer and colorectal cancer. Alisol A has anti-obesity and anti-atherosclerotic activities. Alisol A can be used in the research of hepatitis B, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, atherosclerosis, and obesity.
