Ursolic acid: a versatile triterpenoid compound in regulating the aging
We and other studies have elucidated single molecules that can attenuate aging and extend longevity. Indeed, these molecules could prevent age-associated diseases simultaneously and probably extending healthy-life spans. In this review, we discuss recent advances, controversies, opportunities and challenges surrounding ursolic acid (UA) in relationship with aging. In this regard, UA also known ...
متن کاملPharmacology of oleanolic acid and ursolic acid.
Oleanolic acid and ursolic acid are triterpenoid compounds that exist widely in food, medicinal herbs and other plants. This review summarizes the pharmacological studies on these two triterpenoids. Both oleanolic acid and ursolic acid are effective in protecting against chemically induced liver injury in laboratory animals. Oleanolic acid has been marketed in China as an oral drug for human li...
متن کاملUrsolic Acid Inhibits Nuclear Factor-
The process of tumorigenesis requires cellular transformation, hyperproliferation, invasion, angiogenesis, and metastasis. Several genes that mediate these processes are regulated by the transcription factor nuclear factorB (NFB). The latter is activated by various carcinogens, inflammatory agents, and tumor promoters. Thus, agents that can suppress NFB activation have the potential to suppress...
متن کاملUrsolic Acid, a Natural Nutraceutical Agent, Targets Caspase3 and Alleviates Inflammation‐Associated Downstream Signal Transduction
SCOPE Ursolic acid (UA) is a pentacyclicterpenoid carboxylic acid that is present in a wide variety of plant foods. There are many beneficial health effects that are attributed to the properties of UA. However, the specific cellular targets of UA and the mechanism underlying downstream signal transduction processes linked to the anti-inflammation pathway have not been thoroughly elucidated to d...
متن کاملDetermination of Ursolic Acid and Ursolic Acid Lactone in the Leaves of Eucalyptus tereticornis by HPLC
Um método simples, isocrático, de HPLC foi desenvolvido para quantificação simultânea de dois triterpenos bioativos, ácido ursólico e lactona do ácido ursólico em folhas de E. tereticornis. As amostras foram analisadas em coluna RP-18 (4,6 × 250 mm, 5 μm) com metanol e água acidificada a pH 3,5 com TFA (88:12) a 210 nm. O método foi validado e aplicado para a quantificação simultânea dos triter...
