Used in research for its potential neuroprotective properties, showing activity in models of neuronal cell protection under oxidative stress conditions. Demonstrates moderate acetylcholinesterase inhibitory effects, suggesting possible relevance in the study of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease. Also investigated for its anti-inflammatory effects in vitro, particularly in reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine production. Due to its natural origin and structural complexity, it serves as a lead compound in the development of novel bioactive alkaloids.
