To discover lead lupane triterpenoid's potential isolated from Pueraria lobata roots against β-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1), which serve as a rate limiting step in amyloid beta (Aβ) production altering the course of Alzheimer's disease. In addition, enzyme kinetics study and molecular docking were conducted to establish the inhibition type and structure activity relationship.
