  "definition": "A mouthwash consisting of the natural bacteria-derived tetrahydropyrimidine and extremolyte ectoine, with potential hydrating and anti-inflammatory activities. Upon administration as a mouthwash, ectoine may stabilize the membranes, rehydrate the mucosal lining of the oral cavity and help prevent oral infections. Ectoine may also reduce inflammation of the mucosal lining of the oral cavity through its various actions on the inflammatory cytokines such as interleukins (IL) 6 (IL-6) and 8 (IL-8), the ceramide signaling pathway, and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway.",
