Abstract

Inflammation is a complex biological process that plays an important role in many clinical disorders. The natural plant and its secondary metabolites play an important role in the prevention and treatment of inflammation. Taraxerol is a pentacyclic triterpenoid found in medicinal plants, fruits, and vegetables, and is a potent anti-inflammatory agent. This review explains the molecular mechanism of the anti-inflammatory effects of taraxerol and its interactions with many molecular targets, including NF-κB, MAPKs, and COX. Furthermore, the effects of taraxerol on oxidative stress, cell function, and inflammatory cell signaling have been comprehensively described. This review addresses the limitations and obstacles in taraxerol research, as well as provides insights for future investigations. The findings highlight the need for additional research to completely understand the therapeutic potential and clinical applications of taraxerol in the treatment of inflammatory diseases.
