| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Madecassic acid is a triterpenoid that has been found in C. asiatica and has diverse biological activities.1,2,3 It inhibits LPS-induced production of nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2; Item No. 14010), TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in RAW 264.7 macrophages when used at a concentration of 150 μg/ml.1 Madecassic acid (0.05 and 0.1% in the diet) decreases plasma levels of fibrinogenin and triglycerides, as well as heart and kidney levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), in a mouse model of diabetes induced by streptozotocin (STZ; Item No. 13104).2 It decreases tumor growth in a CT26 murine colon cancer model in a dose-dependent manner.3 | [Chemical Properties]
White powder | [Uses]
Madecassic Acid is a terpenoid with an ursane skeleton isolated from Centella asiatica. Madecassic Acid displays anti-inflammatory properties as a result of iNOS, COX-2, TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, and IL-6
inhibition via the downregulation of NF-kappaB activation in RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. Madecassic Acid is found in cosmetic products due to its skin-protective activities. | [Uses]
wound healing | [Definition]
ChEBI: A pentacyclic triterpenoid that is ursane substituted by a carboxy group at position 28 and hydroxy groups at positions 2, 3, 6 and 23 (the 2alpha,3beta,6beta stereoisomer). |
