Product Description: α-Amyrin (Standard) is the analytical standard of α-Amyrin. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. α-Amyrin is a pentacyclic triterpenoid compound with oral activity. α-Amyrin activates the ERK and GSK-3β signaling pathways. α-Amyrin can be used in the study of metabolic syndrome induced by high fructose diet and cognitive dysfunction caused by low cholinergic neurotransmission[1][2][3].
Formula: C30H50O
