Used in research for its potential neuroprotective effects, particularly in models of brain injury and neurodegenerative diseases. Shows activity in reducing oxidative stress and inflammation in neuronal cells. Investigated for possible antidepressant-like effects due to interaction with monoaminergic systems. Also studied for antimicrobial properties against certain bacteria and fungi. Exhibits anti-inflammatory action by inhibiting pro-inflammatory cytokines. May support liver protection in experimental models of liver damage. Explored for cardiovascular benefits, including protection against myocardial injury. Its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier enhances its potential for central nervous system-related applications.
