Used in research for its potential anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, and anti-cancer properties. Shows activity in cellular models related to oxidative stress and antioxidant effects, suggesting possible applications in studying neurodegenerative conditions. Also investigated for its role in modulating signaling pathways involved in cell survival and inhibiting the growth of certain cancer cells, particularly lung and liver cancer cells. Potential for development into pharmaceutical agents for treating chronic inflammatory diseases such as arthritis or diabetes. Currently limited to laboratory and preclinical studies with no established clinical use.
