Biological Activity

Description Farnesol is a natural sesquiterpene alcohol that is potent in treating antimetabolic disorders, anti-inflammation, showing antioxidant, anticancer, and antibiotic effects.
In vitro

Farnesol exhibits a relative Th1-inclination and anti-inflammatory property to immune cells in vitro[1].

In vivo

Farnesol has potential for alleviating massive inflammation, oxidative stress and lung injury induced by intratracheal instillation of cigarette smoke extract in rats. Farnesol also ameliorates 1,2-dimethylhydrazine induced oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptosis in the colon of Wistar rats[1].
