1β-Hydroxy-2-oxopomolic acid inhibits adipocyte differentiation through downregulation of various adipocytokines by blocking PPARγ and C EBPα expression.
2-Oxopomolic acid shows cytotoxic activity, it shows a significant decrease in intracellular melanin content in B16-F10 cells, and in culture media melanin. 2-Oxopomolic acid shows radical-scavenging activities similar to that of the reference antioxidant
