URS-12-EN-3-ONE

α-Amyrenone is a triterpenoid that occurs naturally in very low concentrations in several oleoresins from Brazilian Amazon species of Protium (Burseraceae). The mixture of α and β-amyrenone inhibits α-glucosidase, and can reduce mechanical hypersensitivity and paw-oedema induced by carrageenan[1].
