Description
Asiatic acid is a pentacyclic triterpene isolated from a variety of plants, including C. asiatica, used in traditional medicines. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, asiatic acid stimulates wound healing by increasing collagen production. It has been found to induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in breast cancer cells and block angiogenesis in cells and tumors from glioblastomas. It also reduces neuronal damage and cognitive defects resulting from glutamate administration in vivo in mice while demonstrating protective effects against glutamate-induced apoptosis in isolated SH-SY5Y cells.
