HIDE SMILES / InChI
Lupeol, a biologically active dietary triterpenoid, is found in many medicinal plants and different fruits such as olives, mangos, and strawberries. Lupeol exhibits a wide spectrum of pharmacological properties including anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, anti-microbial, cardioprotective, and hepatoprotective activities. Lupeol inhibits LPS-induced microglial neuroinflammation via the P38-MAPK and JNK pathways and has therapeutic potential to treat various neuroinflammatory disorders. Lupeol possesses antiskin tumor-promoting effects in CD-1 mouse and inhibits conventional as well as novel biomarkers of tumor promotion. It strongly suppressed lipogenesis by modulating the IGF-1R/phosphatidylinositide 3 kinase (PI3K)/Akt/sterol response element-binding protein-1 (SREBP-1) signaling pathway in SEB-1 sebocytes, and reduced inflammation by suppressing the NF-κB pathway in SEB-1 sebocytes and HaCaT keratinocytes. Lupeol exhibited a marginal effect on cell viability and may have modulated dyskeratosis of the epidermis. These results demonstrate the clinical feasibility of applying lupeol for the treatment of acne.

Route of Administration: Topical
To examine whether lupeol modulates lipid synthesis in human SEB-1 sebocytes, intracellular neutral lipid content was analyzed by Nile Red staining after treating the cells with different concentrations of lupeol. Lupeol significantly decreased lipid by 58% in SEB-1 sebocytes treated with 20 uM lupeol.
