Biological Activity
Glycyrrhizic acid has immunoregulatory function,it(up to 100 mg/ml) can inhibit interleukin-6 and elevate interleukin-10 production in lipopolysaccharide-activated macrophages, and significantly inhibit proliferation of spleen lymphocytes; rectally administered glycyrrhizic acid has significant protective effects against TNBS-induced colitis in rats.[1]
Glycyrrhizic acid and 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid may provide an anti-inflammatory effect by attenuating the generation of excessive NO, PGE(2), and ROS and by suppressing the expression of pro-inflammatory genes through the inhibition of NF-κB and PI3K activity, might serve as potential agents for the treatment of inflammatory-mediated diseases.[2]
Glycyrrhizic acid offers radioprotection by scavenging free radicals.[3]
Glycyrrhizic acid is the antiviral component of Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch. against coxsackievirus A16 and enterovirus 71 of hand foot and mouth disease with distinct mechanisms.[4]
