Chemical. CAS 331-39-5. Formula C9H8O4. MW 180.16. Caffeic Acid is an endogenous phenolic phytochemical compound that inhibits a number of lipoxygenases such as 5-LO 5-lipoxygenase, in a non-competitive manner, and 12-LO 12-lipoxygenase inhibiting leukotriene synthesis involved in immunoregulation, inflammation and allergy. Caffeic acid has antioxidant, immunomodulatory, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective anti-proliferative and anticancer activity. Caffeic Acid has also been shown to inhibit arachidonic acid metabolism in platelets and to stimulate prostaglandin synthesis at high doses. Caffeic Acid is an inhibitor of GST, ODC, Tyk, Fyn kinase and xanthine oxidase. Caffeic acid has been used as a standard of phenolic acid in the study to determine the total phenolic acid content in vegetables after subjecting to alkaline and acid hydrolysis.
