Honokiol is a natural bisphenol chemical with multiple biological activities. It targets multiple signaling molecules and has effective antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-angiogenic and anti-cancer activities. It also has broad-spectrum antibacterial and anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) activities[1, 2]. Honokiol can inhibit the activation of serine/threonine kinase (Akt) and can pass through the blood-brain barrier[3].
In vitro, Honokiol (5, 10μM) treated platelet cells for 0.5-5min, 1 minute after convulsant stimulation, significantly inhibited the phosphorylation of Lyn and PLCγ2, and the amount of p47 protein was significantly reduced after 3min[4]. Honokiol (20-100μM) treated melanoma cell lines (SK-MEL2 and MeWo cells) for 24-72h, reduced the cell viability of both cell lines in a dose- and time-dependent manner, increased the cytosolic cytochrome c content, elevated caspase activity, and increased mitochondrial depolarization[5].
In vivo, Honokiol (5mg/kg) treated rats undergoing cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) surgery by a single intraperitoneal injection restored the morphological changes in rat kidney tissue, reduced the production of oxidative stress and inflammatory cytokines, decreased the levels of nitric oxide (NO) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and inhibited the activation of NF-κB signaling[6]. Honokiol (0.2mg/kg) treated mice with doxorubicin (Dox)-induced heart injury by intraperitoneal injection for 35 days significantly alleviated the cardiotoxicity of Dox, improved cardiac function and reduced cardiomyocyte apoptosis, and activated PPARγ signaling in cardiomyocytes[7].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | Platelets |
Preparation Method | Washed platelets (1.2 × 109 cells/ml) were preincubated with or without honokiol (5μM and 10μM) or the solvent control (0.5% DMSO), followed by the addition of 5ng/mL of convulxin to trigger platelet activation at the indicated times (0.5 to 5min). The cells were collected, and the subcellular extracts were analyzed for the presence of phosphorylated Lyn, phospholipase Cγ2 (PLCγ2), and p47. |
Reaction Conditions | 5, 10μM; 0.5 to 5min |
Applications | At 1min after convulsin stimulation, honokiol(5μM and 10μM) significantly inhibited the phosphorylation of Lyn and PLCγ2. After 3 minutes, the amount of phosphorylated p47 protein in convulsin-activated platelets was reduced. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | SD rats |
Preparation Method | SD rats were randomly divided into three groups. The control group consisted of untreated and sham-operated rats. Untreated SD rats that underwent cecal ligation and puncture(CLP) surgery were designated as the CLP group. In the CLP+honokiol group, honokiol dissolved in DMSO was intraperitoneally injected into the rats at a dose of 5mg/kg 30min after CLP treatment. All animals were killed 24h after CLP or sham surgery. Blood samples were collected from peripheral blood vessels of rats under anesthesia. Kidney tissues were immediately collected and stored at −80°C or fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde according to the purpose of analysis. |
Dosage form | 5mg/kg; i.p. |
Applications | Treatment with honokiol officinalis restored the morphological changes of renal tissue in rats with CLP, reduced the production of oxidative stress and inflammatory cytokines, decreased the levels of nitric oxide (NO) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and inhibited the activation of NF-κB signaling. |
