Description

3,4,5-Trimethoxycinnamic acid (TMC) is a hydroxycinnamic acid that is an intermediate in the synthesis of protocatechuic acid. TMC has been found to have an inhibitory effect on the matrix metalloproteinase activity in the cerebellar granule cells and may be useful for treating allergic reactions. It also has anti-inflammatory properties and can be used as a replacement for sodium carbonate in certain industrial processes. TMC also has been shown to have GABA-ergic effects, increasing locomotor activity and reducing anxiety. TMC can also be used as a Chinese herb for the treatment of ganoderma lucidum.
