Description

General description

Honokiol exhibits analgesic, antithrombotic, antispasmodic, antidepressant, antimicrobial and neuroprotective effects. It regulates gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) A receptors. Honokiol is associated with an increased risk of bleeding. It prevents platelet aggregation, protects myocardium from ischemic damage and inhibits ventricular arrhythmia.

Application

Honokiol has been used:

• to study its effects on plasmid hSirt3^102-399 deacetylation activity
• as an antioxidant to study its cytoprotective role in human ovarian cancer cells (SKOV-3) and Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHOK1)
• to explore its effects on oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction via a sirt3-dependent manner
• for intracerebroventricular (ICV) cannulation

Biochem/physiol Actions

Honokiol is a natural biphenyl neolignan from magnolia extract. It is antiangiogenic, antitumor, and anxiolytic.
