Abietic acid inhibits lipoxygenase activity.
    Phytotherapy research : PTR, 2002, Volume: 16, Issue:1

    In this study, it was shown that abietic acid, an abietane diterpenoid, inhibited soybean 5-lipoxygenase (linoleate: oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.13.11.12) and an IC(50) of 29.5 +/- 1.29 microM was determined. Since the lipoxygenase pathway leads to the biosynthesis of leukotrienes this result supports the view that abietic acid may be used in the treatment of allergic reactions.
