Continentalic Acid（Cat No.:I018215）is a diterpenoid compound extracted from Aralia continentalis, a plant used in traditional Asian medicine. Known for its anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and antioxidant properties, continentalic acid has shown promise in pharmacological studies, particularly in reducing inflammation by inhibiting nitric oxide production and cytokine activity. It is also being researched for its potential to suppress cancer cell proliferation and protect against oxidative stress-related damage. With its diverse bioactivities, continentalic acid holds potential in developing natural therapeutic agents for inflammatory diseases, cancer, and oxidative stress conditions.
