Ursolic Acid – CAS 77-52-1

Abstract

Ursolic acid (CAS 77-52-1) is a pentacyclic triterpenoid identified in the epicuticular waxes of apples and widely found in the peels of fruits, as well as in herbs and spices like rosemary and thyme.

In vitro, ursolic acid inhibits the proliferation of various cancer cell types by inhibiting the STAT3 activation pathway, and may also decrease proliferation of cancer cells and induce apoptosis. Ursolic acid has also been shown to inhibit JNK expression and IL-2 activation of JURKAT leukemic T Cells leading to the reduction in proliferation and T cell activation.
