Description

Cedrol is a natural compound that belongs to the class of sesquiterpenoids. It is a hydrogen-bond acceptor and exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Cedrol has been shown to inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α. Cedrol also inhibits cell growth in vitro by inducing apoptosis in cancer cells. The effective dose for cedrol is not yet determined; however, it has been shown that at least 1% of the total extract is required to exhibit these effects. Cedrol may be used as a skin conditioner or cosmetic ingredient due to its ability to improve skin appearance and reduce inflammation. Cedrol is also able to inhibit DNA polymerase activity through competitive inhibition with magnesium ions necessary for DNA synthesis. This property makes cedrol useful as a topical agent for wound healing or acne treatment due to its ability to reduce the size of pores on the skin surface while promoting tissue
