Ursolic Acid, a naturally occurring triterpenoid, has been noted to demonstrate anti-angiogenic and anti-proliferative properties. Mechanistic studies suggest that this compound down-regulates MMP-2 and uPA expression in cells via inhibition of Akt, JNK, mammalian target of Rapamycin (sc-3504) phosphorylation, and levels of NFκB protein in the nucleus. Other experiments have shown that Ursolic Acid may improve blood glucose, glucose tolerance, insulin tolerance, glycosylated hemoglobin, and plasma leptin levels in diabetic murine models. Additionally, this agent displays a capacity to induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis through activation of p53 pathway and Bax protein, as well as down-regulation of Bcl-2.
Ursolic acid (UA) (3β-hydroxy-urs-12-en-28-oic-acid) (Fig. 1) is a pentacyclic triterpenoid carboxylic compound (C30H48O3) which may occur in the free acid form or as aglycones for triterpenoid saponins. Its isomer, oleanolic acid (OA) (3β-hydroxy-olea-12-en-28-oic-acid), presents different substitution of the methyl group, but they have similar molecular structures and pharmacological activity. Oleanolic acid and ursolic acid are ubiquitous triterpenoids in plant kingdom, medicinal herbs, and are integral part of the human diet, once they are found in fruits and medicinal herbs.
Ursolic acid(Malol) is a pentacyclic triterpene acid, used in cosmetics, that is also capable of inhibiting various types of cancer cells by inhibiting the STAT3 activation pathway and human fibrosarcoma cells by reducing the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 by acting through the glucocorticoid receptor. As medicine, it is well tolerated and can be used topically and orally. Ursolic acid can also serve as a starting material for synthesis of more potent bioactive derivatives, such as anti-tumor agents
