Description

Bornyl acetate is the main volatile constituent in numerous conifer oils and some Chinese traditional herbs, which has displayed an anti-inflammatory effect. In addition was shown, that this compound had therapeutic potentials for the osteoarthritis and may be developed as a preventive agent for lung inflammatory diseases. In combination with 5-fluorouracil, bornyl acetate possesses the anticancer activity by inducing apoptosis, DNA fragmentation as well as G2/M cell cycle arrest.

It was shown, that bornyl acetate elevated the expression of IL-11 at both the mRNA and protein levels. Normal human chondrocytes were pretreated with or without bornyl acetate at the concentrations of 50 and 100 ug/mL for 24H, followed by incubated with IL-1b 10 ug/mL for another 24 H.
