Used in research for its potential anti-diabetic properties, particularly in promoting glucose uptake in cells and improving insulin sensitivity in preclinical studies. Also investigated for hepatoprotective effects, helping protect liver cells from damage caused by oxidative stress and toxins. Exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities, including inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway to reduce production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Additionally, shows antiviral activity, particularly against hepatitis B virus (HBV), with potential for developing treatments for chronic liver diseases. Compounds with similar structures are found in traditional Chinese herbs used for liver nourishment and immune support, making 25-Anhydroalisol F an interesting candidate for research into new natural drugs. Currently limited to laboratory and experimental use, not approved for clinical or therapeutic applications.
