Research and Mechanisms of Action
Anti-Inflammatory Effects
- Betulinic acid reduces inflammatory cytokines (e.g., IL-5, TNFα, IL-1β) and inhibits NF-κB, a key regulator of inflammation.
- Lupeol stabilizes lysosomal membranes, mitigating inflammatory damage.
- Betulin and lupeol act as antioxidants, reducing nitric oxide production and curbing inflammatory white blood cell activity.
Diabetes and Blood Sugar Management
- Betulinic acid slows carbohydrate breakdown by inhibiting key enzymes like pancreatic amylase and intestinal glucosidase.
- Betulin enhances glucose uptake by muscle cells, achieving 20% of insulin’s effect.
- Both betulinic acid and lupeol improve insulin function by inhibiting protein phosphatase 1B.
Oral Health Support
- Betulin inhibits Streptococcus mutans biofilm formation, targeting genes responsible for biofilm metabolism.
- Birch extract formulations significantly reduce harmful bacteria such as P. gingivalis and E. faecalis.
- Betulinic acid suppresses oral squamous cell carcinoma growth and promotes cancer cell apoptosis.
