Bos, Boswellia (frankincense): Click to Expand ⟱
Features:
Boswellia is an herbal extract from the Boswellia serrata tree that may help reduce inflammation.
May help with rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, asthma, and cancer.
-Naturally occurring pentacyclic triterpenoids include ursolic acid (UA), oleanolic acid (OA), betulinic acid (BetA), bosewellic acid (BA), Asiatic acid (AA), α-amyrin, celastrol, glycyrrhizin, 18-β-glycyrrhetinic acid, lupeol, escin, madecassic acid, momordin I, platycodon D, pristimerin, saikosaponins, soyasapogenol B, and avicin
Boswellia refers to a group of resinous extracts obtained from Boswellia trees (e.g., Boswellia serrata). Traditionally used in Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese medicine, Boswellia is reputed for its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and immunomodulatory properties. Its bioactive components—such as boswellic acids.
-Anti-inflammatory Activity (blocking the enzyme 5-lipoxygenase) 5LOX↓,.
-AKBA used to reduce Methionine ***** (help in Methionine reduced diet)
Boswellia extracts are often administered in doses ranging from 300 mg to 1,200 mg per day

AKBA (Acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid) is a bioactive compound derived from Boswellia serrata, a plant used traditionally for its anti-inflammatory properties. (upto 30% AKBA in Boswellia MEGA AKBA)
AKBA also available in Inflasanum @ 90% AKDA (MCSformulas)

2775- Bos,    The journey of boswellic acids from synthesis to pharmacological activities
- Review, Var, NA - Review, AD, NA - Review, PSA, NA
ROS↑, modulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation and the resulting endoplasmic reticulum stress is central to BA’s molecular and cellular anticancer activities
ER Stress↑,
TumCG↓, Cell cycle arrest, growth inhibition, apoptosis induction, and control of inflammation are all the effects of BA’s altered gene expression
Apoptosis↑,
Inflam↓,
ChemoSen↑, BA has additional synergistic effects, increasing both the sensitivity and cytotoxicity of doxorubicin and cisplatin
Casp↑, BA decreases viability and induces apoptosis by activat- ing the caspase-dependent pathway in human pancreatic cancer (PC) cell lines
ERK↓, BA might inhibit the activation of Ak strain transforming (Akt) and extracellular signal–regulated kinase (ERK)1/2,
cl‑PARP↑, initiation of cleavage of PARP were prompted by the treatment with AKBA
AR↓, AKBA affects the androgen receptor by reducing its expression,
cycD1↓, decrease in cyclin D1, which inhibits cellular proliferation

*Imm↑, oral administration of biopolymeric fraction (BOS 200) from B. serrata in mice led to immunostimulatory effects
*Dose↝, BA at low concentration tend to stimulate an immune response, as those utilized in the study of Beghelli et al. (2017) however, utilizing higher concentration suppressed the immune response
*eff↑, Useful actions on skin and psoriasis
*neuroP↑, AKBA has substantially diminished the levels of inflammatory markers such as 5-LOX, TNF-, IL-6, and meliorated cognition in lipopolysaccharide-induced neuroinflammation rodent models
