Used in pharmaceutical research for its anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. Shows potential in treating neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease by reducing oxidative stress and inhibiting neuronal cell death. Also investigated for hepatoprotective effects, helping protect the liver from damage caused by toxins and metabolic stress. Exhibits analgesic activity, making it a candidate for pain management studies. Currently primarily used in preclinical research and natural product chemistry due to its presence in certain medicinal plants.
