Glycyrrhizic acid has diverse biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, anticancer, antimicrobial, hepatoprotective, neuroprotective and antiviral actions. Glycyrrhizic acid has been shown to be a 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase inhibitor, a functional inhibitor of HMGB1 and a highly selective and competitive inhibitor of kynurenine aminotransferase 2 (KAT2). It can enhance GLP-1 secretion through TGR5 activation and has an anti-inflammatory effect by attenuating the generation of excessive NO, PGE(2), and ROS and by suppressing the expression of pro-inflammatory genes through the inhibition of NF-kappa and PI3K activity. It has anti-angiogenic and apoptosis inducing properties.
