While no actual conclusion regarding Hippuristanol in I. hippuris has been published, scientists and marine biologists continue to study how the molecule could be used in cancer research and recovery.
The study compared groups of I. hippuris located at two different ridges with Wakatobi Marine National Park (WMNP), Indonesia.
I. hippuris is found in tropical coral reefs within the Indo-Pacific region of the Pacific Ocean, particularly off the coasts of Indonesia and India.
I. hippuris may be adaptable to its environment, as factors such as sediment thickness, turbidity, and light availability may be linked to phenotypic differences.
Like other members of the class Anthozoa, I. hippuris is able to reproduce asexually, spawning small larva which go through metamorphosis quickly and take root in sediment to grow into an adult.
Continuing to research the rate at which hippuristanol is able to eliminate leukemia, and the effectiveness, may ultimately result in a major medical breakthrough.
Furthermore, Isis was looked up to and highly admired across Egypt, for her positive impact on the environment around her, and her beauty,[14] similarly to the I. hippuris coral.
As mentioned above, the molecule Hippuristanol may be utilized in the cancer healing realm, and come full circle by living out the origin of the name Isis.
Additionally, there is a lack of education provided to the local community about the importance of these coral reefs for the worldwide ecosystem, which also contributes to its destruction.
