ursolic acid

Ursolic acid is a lipid of Prenol Lipids (PR) class. Ursolic acid is associated with abnormalities such as Aortic Valve Insufficiency, Marles Greenberg Persaud syndrome, Infection, Arthritis and Dermatitis. The involved functions are known as Transcription, Genetic, Metabolic Inhibition, Cell physiology, Cell Differentiation process and Apoptosis. Ursolic acid often locates in Blood, Bacterial Fimbria, soluble, Extracellular and Microglial. The associated genes with ursolic acid are STAT3 gene, Genes, Reporter, IMPACT gene, ITSN2 gene and casamino acids. The related lipids are lysophosphatidic acid, Lipopolysaccharides, Steroids, cholanic acid and 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoylphosphatidylethanolamine. The related experimental models are Mouse Model, Knock-out and Cancer Model.
