Apart from cancer, the effect of guggul has been well proven against different inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, IBD, and various other diseases such as obesity, otitis media, uveitis etc. For example, treatment with GS downregulated RANKL induced osteoclastogenesis and blocked IL-1beta mediated production of chemokines and epithelial neutrophil activating peptide-78 (ENA-78), MMP-1,-3 via suppression of NF-κB, nuclear p50, and p65 subunit and IκBα degradation in rheumatoid arthritis (Ichikawa and Aggarwal, 2006; Kinne et al., 2007; Lee et al., 2008; Ammon, 2016). Here, IL1B is linked to inflammatory bowel disease.
