Used in cardiovascular research for its potential protective effects on heart tissue. Shows activity in improving blood flow and reducing oxidative stress in vascular cells. Investigated for role in supporting treatment of ischemic heart conditions due to its ability to modulate inflammatory pathways and inhibit platelet aggregation. Also studied for antioxidant properties that may contribute to endothelial protection. Currently explored as a lead compound in developing natural product-based therapies for coronary artery disease.
