Madecassic acid Usage And Synthesis

DescriptionMadecassic acid is a triterpenoid that has been found in C. asiatica and has diverse biological activities. It inhibits LPS-induced production of nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2; ), TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in RAW 264.7 macrophages when used at a concentration of 150 μg/ml. 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; ). It decreases tumor growth in a CT26 murine colon cancer model in a dose-dependent manner.

Useswound healing
UsesMadecassic 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.
DefinitionChEBI: 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).
