Used in pharmaceutical and biochemical research for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, helping to reduce cell damage from oxidative stress. Shows potential in neuroprotective applications, helping to protect nerve cells from damage associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's. Investigated for anticancer activity, particularly in inhibiting the growth of certain tumor cells, including liver and lung cancer cells, with interest in its development as a lead compound for anticancer drug design. Also studied for its role in managing metabolic disorders due to its influence on glucose regulation and lipid metabolism. Found in some cosmetic formulations for skin protection and anti-aging effects owing to its ability to combat oxidative stress, reduce skin inflammation, and potentially inhibit melanin production for skin brightening.
