Used in pharmaceutical research for its potential antioxidant and hepatoprotective properties. Shows promise in studies related to liver disease due to its ability to protect liver cells from oxidative damage. Investigated for anticancer activity, particularly in prostate and breast cancer cell lines, where it may induce apoptosis and inhibit cell proliferation. Also explored for neuroprotective effects in models of neurodegenerative diseases. Its role in modulating signaling pathways such as NF-κB and MAPK makes it a candidate for anti-inflammatory therapies. Limited bioavailability is a challenge, prompting development of delivery systems like liposomes or nanoparticles to enhance efficacy.
