Arjunolic acid (AA) is a triterpenoid saponin that has known anti-oxidant activity. AA has also shown promise in against type 1 diabetes through its prevention of hyperglycemia induced activation of MAPKs, PKC, NF-kB signaling cascades. Arjunolic acid is beneficial in protecting again acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver and hepatocyte injury.
Vascular inflammation and cardiac dysfunction are the leading causes of mortality and morbidity among the diabetic patients. Type 1 diabetic mellitus (T1DM) is associated with increased cardiovascular complications at an early stage of the disease. The purpose of the present

Present study investigates the beneficial role of arjunolic acid (AA) against the alteration in the cytokine levels and simultaneous activation of oxidative stress responsive signaling pathways in spleen under hyperglycemic condition. Diabetes was induced by injection of streptozotocin (STZ) (at
Arsenic is a well-established environmental toxin, which damages various organs of the body. A triterpenoid saponin, arjunolic acid (AA) has been isolated from the bark of Terminalia arjuna. The present study was conducted to investigate the preventive role of AA

The present study was conducted to investigate the role of arjunolic acid (AA) against sodium fluoride (NaF)-induced cytotoxicity and necrotic cell death in murine hepatocytes. Dose-dependent studies suggest that incubation of hepatocytes with NaF (100mM) for 1h significantly decreased the

Nine esters of a naturally occurring triterpenoid, arjunolic acid (from Terminalia arjuna), with alkyl chains have been synthesized, and their self-assembly has been studied in organic liquids. All of the esters examined were found to be excellent gelators. No birefringence
