Product Specifications
UNSPSC Description
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].
