Macelignan (Anwulignan) is a lignan. It can be found in Myristica fragrans, the nutmeg.

Medical research

One study has shown that macelignan may exert antimicrobial and anticariogenic activity against Streptococcus mutans, but this is not a currently used treatment.^[1]^[2]

Macelignan may also act as an antidiabetic molecule via PPAR signaling^[3] and upregulate adipocyte gene expression^[4]

Macelignan may contain antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties^[5]^[4] and is marketed in breast enhancement creams for its anti-aging properties.^[6]
