7-Ethoxyrosmanol has cytotoxic and antimicrobial activities.

7-Ethoxyrosmanol is a diterpene that has been found to have cytotoxic and anti-inflammatory properties. The compound inhibits the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-6 and TNFα, which are associated with cancer. 7-Ethoxyrosmanol also has antitumor effects and can induce apoptosis in human leukemia cells, suggesting its use as an adjuvant therapy for cancer. The compound is lipophilic in nature, making it easily absorbed by the lipid bilayer of cellular membranes. The cytotoxicity of this compound may be due to its ability to bind to DNA, RNA, or protein. 7-Ethoxyrosmanol also has significant cytotoxicity against human tumor cell lines and induces apoptosis through caspase activation.
