Science
Mechanism of Action
Research indicates Larixol possesses both antibacterial and antioxidant properties, suggesting a role in protecting the skin from oxidative stress and mitigating bacterial presence. Furthermore, (+)-Larixol and its acetylated derivatives have been observed to selectively inhibit transient receptor potential canonical 6 (TRPC6) channels. However, investigations into its impact on G protein-coupled receptors in human neutrophils showed no inhibitory effects on responses mediated by FPR1, FPR2, or Gαq coupled GPCRs.
