應用

β-欖香烯因其在不同的草藥中都存在而受到研究者關注,如鬱金(學名:Curcuma wenyujin)中存在β-欖香烯[5]體外研究表明,β-欖香烯對Rho激酶英語Rho-associated protein kinase有抑制作用[6], 對一些癌細胞類型有抗增殖作用[7][8][9][10],是一種潛在的化療藥物。β-欖香烯已經在中國進行了臨床試驗並報導了其對癌症治療的益處,並且β-欖香烯的脂質體注射和口服乳劑已被中國食品藥品監督管理局批准為用於治療各種癌症的輔助治療[11] 。但是西方學者對β-欖香烯的治療效果和安全性持懷疑態度,臨床試驗僅在小範圍內展開[12]。2023年美國紀念斯隆-凱特琳癌症中心表示:"目前為止進行的人體試驗質量很差"[13]考科藍合作組織根據現有的研究論文給出評價:"沒有任何對照實驗證據來證實或證偽欖香烯對肺癌的治療效果"[14]
