Glycyrrhizic Acid（Cat No.:R058312）is a bioactive compound derived from Glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice root), known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. It is commonly used in traditional medicine for treating respiratory, digestive, and skin conditions. Glycyrrhizic acid functions as an inhibitor of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2, which can increase cortisol levels. It has potential therapeutic applications in treating viral infections, reducing symptoms of chronic hepatitis, and alleviating inflammatory disorders. Glycyrrhizic acid is also studied for its ability to enhance drug absorption and improve skin barrier function.
