Terminolic acid is a pentacyclic triterpenoid glucoside isolated from Combretum racemosum. Terminolic acid can inhibit the pro-inflammatory cytokines by binding to receptor active site of IL-1β and IL-6, and enhance anti-inflammatory cytokines by binding to IL-4 receptor binding sites. Terminolic acid also exhibits moderate antibacterial activity[1][1].
