Description

Beta-elemonic acid is a natural substance that is found in the leaves of the plant Hedera helix. It has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties, which are due to its ability to inhibit the production of inflammatory mediators such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes. Beta-elemonic acid also inhibits tumor growth by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. The oxidation products of beta-elemonic acid have been shown to have antibacterial effects against a range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Escherichia coli.
