Used in traditional medicine for its anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective properties, supporting liver function and reducing oxidative stress.

Biological studies demonstrate anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting proteins such as NF-κB and reducing production of pro-inflammatory cytokines like TNF-α and IL-6, with potential applications in treating chronic inflammatory conditions including rheumatoid arthritis and gastritis.

Investigated for use in skincare formulations due to its ability to promote cell regeneration and reduce signs of aging.

Exhibits anticancer activity, particularly against lung and liver cancer cells, through induction of apoptosis and inhibition of tumor cell proliferation in preliminary in vitro studies.

As an epoxide terpenoid, it holds potential as a starting material for synthesizing other bioactive compounds or in pharmacological research to discover new molecules with enhanced specificity.
