The chemical name of Ferulic Acid is 4 hydroxy 3 methoxy cinnamic acid, which is one of the derivatives of cinnamic acid (also known as cinnamic acid, 3 phenyl 2 acrylic acid, molecular structure). Ferulic acid can scavenge free radicals, promote the production of free radical scavenging enzymes, increase the activity of glutathione transsulfase and quinone reductase, and inhibit the activity of tyrosinase to regulate human physiological functions.

Function Of Ferulic Acid
1. Anti-radiation effect
As a phenolic plant ingredient, ferulic acid has strong antioxidant activity and has a great promotion effect on human health. Ferulic acid can significantly increase the content of glutathione and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate in irradiated cells, and has a protective effect on irradiated endothelial cells. Heme oxygenase is an enzyme with antioxidant effect. It can convert heme into biliverdin, and finally into the antioxidant bilirubin. Ferulic acid can well regulate the expression of this enzyme , So as to play a protective role in radiation protection.
2. Antioxidant function
Ferulic acid can extinguish free radicals and restore the normal functions of living bodies. Ferulic acid can inhibit the enzymes that produce free radicals in living bodies. On this basis, it can also increase the free radical scavenging enzymes. At the same time, ferulic acid can greatly enhance the activity of aldehyde reductase and glutathione transsulfurase, and control the ratio of active tyrosinase. Ferulic acid has a significant antioxidant effect, and has a good scavenging effect on ammonia peroxide, superoxide free radicals, hydroxyl free radicals, and nitro peroxide.
3. Antibacterial and antiviral functions
It is reported that ferulic acid has a significant inhibitory effect on cold virus (IV), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and HIV (HIV). The effect of ferulic acid on inflammatory proteins was studied in the same cell line. Fuulic acid can drastically reduce the production of this protein. Among them, ferulic acid has an inhibitory effect on HIV, so it is possible that ferulic acid will become a chemotherapeutic agent in the future. It is guessed that the inhibitory mechanism of ferulic acid on the virus is related to its ability to reduce the activity of xanthine oxidase. It is because this type of enzyme can generally cause some inflammation. The antibacterial function of ferulic acid is guessed mainly due to its effect on bacteria. The N-acetyltransferase has a strong inhibitory effect.
Application Of Ferulic Acid
In recent years, researches on pharmacological effects have found many pharmacological effects and biological activities of ferulic acid and its derivatives, and the toxicity is low, so it has a wide range of uses in medicine, health care products, cosmetic raw materials and food additives.
