Used primarily in research settings for its potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Shows promise in studies related to neuroprotection and age-related cognitive decline due to its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier. Investigated for use in cosmetic formulations aimed at reducing oxidative stress in skin cells, potentially slowing signs of aging. Also explored for its role in modulating cellular signaling pathways involved in cancer progression, particularly in breast and colon cell lines. Not currently used in commercial pharmaceuticals or consumer products, limited to preclinical research.
