Methyl gallate is a compound that functions as an antioxidant in experimental applications. It acts by scavenging free radicals and inhibiting oxidative stress at the molecular level. Methyl Gallate is known to chelate metal ions, thereby preventing them from catalyzing the production of reactive oxygen species. Methyl gallate also exhibits anti-inflammatory properties by modulating the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and enzymes. It may possess antimicrobial activity, disrupting the cell membranes of microorganisms and inhibiting their growth. Methyl gallate inhibits certain enzymes involved in lipid metabolism, suggesting a potential role in lipid-lowering effects.
