Boswellia carterii
TCM form of frankincense; activates blood, moves qi, reduces swelling; used for traumatic injury and pain.
Boswellia serrata resin (Ru Xiang) is a traditional remedy in TCM and Ayurveda for activating blood, moving qi, and reducing swelling, primarily used for traumatic injury and pain. Its key active compounds, including AKBA (acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid) and other boswellic acids, incensole, and volatile oils, confer potent anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Modern research supports its use in osteoarthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and as an adjunct in cancer therapy, with evidence levels ranging from robust clinical trials to preliminary laboratory studies.
Boswellic acids, particularly AKBA, act as selective inhibitors of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX), blocking leukotriene synthesis and reducing inflammation. They also inhibit NF-κB activation, downregulate pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6), and modulate COX-2 expression. Incensole exhibits anti-inflammatory effects via TRPV3 channel activation and PPAR-γ agonism. Additionally, boswellic acids induce apoptosis in cancer cells through caspase activation and inhibit angiogenesis by suppressing VEGF signaling.
