Taraxerol has anti-inflammatory and anticancer effects. Taraxerol attenuates acute inflammation by inhibiting NF-κB signaling[5,6].
Taraxerol downregulates the expression of proinflammatory mediators in macrophages by interfering with the activation of TAK1 and Akt, thus preventing NF-κB activation[3].
Taraxerol enhanced ROS levels and attenuated the MMP (Δψm) in HeLa cells. Taraxerol induced apoptosis mainly via the mitochondrial pathway including the release of cytochrome c to the cytosol and activation of caspases 9 and 3, and anti-poly (ADPribose) polymerase (PARP). Taraxerol could induce the down-regulation of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and up-regulation of pro-apoptotic protein Bax. It suppressed the PI3K/ Akt signaling pathway [1].
Taraxerol treatment significantly attenuated carrageenan induced paw edema 2 h onward. The anti-inflammatory effect of taraxerol was sustained up to 4 h[2]. Taraxerol (20mg/kg, p.o.) treatment stimulated glucose metabolism in skeletal muscle, regulated blood glycaemic status and lipid profile in the sera, reduced the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and restored the renal physiology in T2D rats[4]. AChE activity inhibition in animals and indicate that Taraxerol has anti-amnesic activity that may hold significant therapeutic value in alleviating certain memory impairments observed in AD[7].
