Description：Geraniol is an olefin terpene with oral activity. Geraniol inhibits cell proliferation and promotes apoptosis. Geraniol has antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antitumor activities. Geraniol can be used to study diabetes.

In Vitro：Geraniol (0.25-1 mM, 24, 48, 72 h) blocks the cell cycle and induces apoptosis in PC-3 cells[2].

In Vivo：Geraniol (60, 300 mg/kg, subcutaneously injected into tumor cells daily for 38 consecutive days) inhibits tumor growth in PC-3 nude mouse tumor models[2]. Geraniol (200 mg/kg, orally, for 45 consecutive days) improves hyperglycemia by reducing a key enzyme in carbohydrate metabolism induced by streptomycin (HY-13753) in diabetic rats[3]. Geraniol (100 mg/kg/day, orally, for 4 weeks) alleviates oxidative stress, bioaccumulation, serological and histopathological changes during aluminum chloride hepatopancreas poisoning in male Wistar rats[4].

IC50 & Target：Human Endogenous Metabolite
