Plaunotol
Plaunotol is an orally active acyclic diterpene alcohol. Plaunotol has antibacterial activity against Helicobacter pylori which causes peptic ulcer . Plaunotol inhibits tumor angiogenesis and cell proliferation. Plaunotol induces apoptosis by activation of caspase 8 and caspase 9 pathways. Plaunotol is a potential anticancer agent against colon cancer .

In Vivo
Plaunotol (10, 25 or 50 mg/kg, orally, for 3 h) does not affect serum serotonin and histamine concentrations or gastric mucosal blood flow in male Wistar rats treated with C48/80 [3].
Plaunotol (10, 25 or 50 mg/kg, orally, 3 h) significantly decreases the activity of myeloperoxidase (MPO) and the content of lipid peroxidase thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) of gastric mucosa in male Wistar rats treated with C48/80[3].
