Angelol A is primarily studied for its biological activity, particularly its potential as an antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory agent. It has shown inhibitory effects against certain pathogenic bacteria and fungi, making it a candidate of interest in the development of natural product-based therapeutics. Additionally, research suggests Angelol A may modulate inflammatory pathways, which could be relevant in treating conditions involving chronic inflammation. Its application is mostly confined to preclinical research, where it serves as a lead compound for drug discovery, especially in exploring new plant-derived molecules with therapeutic potential.
