ursolic acid

"Our next step is to determine if ursolic acid can help patients."

"We don't know if ursolic acid will benefit people," Adams said.

A natural compound, ursolic acid, found in many fruit and vegetables, also seems to switch on brown fat.

The leaves of many cultivars are high in oleanolic and ursolic acid.

Previous studies by these researchers showed that ursolic acid increased muscle mass and strength in healthy mice.

Apple peels contain large quantities of ursolic acid and related compounds.

Ursolic acid has shown in vitro protective effects on auditory cells.

In addition, the researchers aren't sure whether ursolic acid consumed through the diet may be enough to have the effects seen in the study.

Ursolic acid is used as a cosmetics additive.

The findings therefore suggest that ursolic acid may be responsible for some of the overall benefits of healthy eating, the study said.

It's called ursolic acid and it's particularly concentrated in apple peels."

Apple peel contains a chemical called ursolic acid that is suspected to have a role in building muscle and metabolism.

The plant contains diterpenoids, such as aethiopinone and ursolic acid, that are pain relievers.

It is similar in structure to ursolic acid, differing only in the fact that it has a 2-alpha-hydroxy attachment.

They also fed ursolic acid to mice that were fasting and found the compound protected against muscle weakening.

A compound found in apple peels called ursolic acid may protect against obesity, a new study in mice suggests.

The plant contains oleanolic acid and ursolic acid.

Mice given the compound, called ursolic acid, became leaner and had lower blood levels of glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides.

A number of potential biochemical effects of ursolic acid have been investigated, but there has been no clinical study demonstrating benefits to human health.

Other compounds detected in Bignoniaceae include verbascosides, cornoside, quercetin, ursolic acid, and saponins.

It contains many bioactive compounds, including allantoin, aucubin, ursolic acid, flavonoids, and asperuloside.

The pentacyclic triterpenoids ursolic acid and oleanolic acid have been extracted from Astianthus.

The study, published in the latest issue of the journal Cell Metabolism, showed that ursolic acid reduced muscle wasting in mice.

The researchers measured the mice's energy expenditure, and found that those fed ursolic acid burned more calories than mice that didn't consume the chemical.
