Vulpic acid BiologicalActivity

DescriptionVulpinic acid, a lichen metabolite, decreases H2O2-induced ROS production, oxidative stress and oxidative stress-related damages in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Vulpinic acid is active against staphylococci, enterococci, and anaerobic bacteria.Vulpinic acid has the potential for atherosclerosis research[1][2].
