A metabolite of Glycyrrhetic acid, an anti-inflammatory (topical).

ChEBI: Glycyrrhetic acid 3-O-glucuronide is a triterpenoid saponin that is the 3-O-beta-glucuronide of glycyrrhetic acid. It is a metabolite of glycyrrhizin contained in licorice and potentially a causative agent in the pathogenesis of pseudoaldosteronism. It has a role as an anti-allergic agent, a sweetening agent, an EC 1.1.1.146 (11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase) inhibitor, a human xenobiotic metabolite and a plant metabolite. It is a monosaccharide derivative, a beta-D-glucosiduronic acid, a triterpenoid saponin, a pentacyclic triterpenoid, an oxo dicarboxylic acid and an enone. It is functionally related to a glycyrrhetinic acid.
