Magnolol is a small polyphenolic molecule with low toxicity that is isolated from the herb genus Magnolia. In preclinical experiments, magnolol was found to have anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumorigenic, anti-diabetic, anti-microbial, anti-neurodegenerative and anti-depressant properties. Magnolol is a dual agonist targeting both nuclear receptors retinoic X receptor α (RXRα) and peroxisome proliferator activated receptor γ (PPARγ). These proteins function potently in metabolic diseases and are both important targets for anti-diabetic drugs. In addition, was made a suggestion, that magnolol might exert antiepileptic activity by acting at the GABAA/benzodiazepine receptor complex. Magnolol might be of benefit to the treatment of refractory Candida infection. In addition, it might be a candidate as an agent for the prevention of bone disorders such as osteoporosis. It is known, that the accumulation of oxygen-free radicals and activation of neutrophils are strongly implicated as important pathophysiological mechanisms mediating myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. It has been proven that various antioxidants have cardioprotective effects, including magnolol. Its properties were studied in the rat model of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Sample Use Guides

in mice: magnolol protects against trimethyltin-induced neuronal damage and glial activation: 25 mg/kg i.p in rats: pretreatment with magnolol (0.2 and 0.5 microg/kg, i.v. bolus) at 10 min before 45 min of left coronary artery occlusion, significantly suppressed the incidence of ventricular fibrillation and mortality when compared with the control group
Route of Administration: Other
The antifungal activity of magnolol was demonstrated in planktonic C. albicans and non-albicans Candida species, especially fluconazole-resistant Candida krusei, with the minimum inhibitory concentrations ranging from 10 to 40 μg/mL. The BMIC90 (minimum concentration with 90% Candida biofilm inhibited) values of magnolol ranged from 20 to 160 μg/mL. As an alternative and broad-spectrum antifungal agent, magnolol might be of benefit to the treatment of refractory Candida infection. Susceptibility testing of planktonic yeast cells to magnolol was performed following the CLSI M-27A broth micro-dilution method. The frozen magnolol solution was thawed and diluted in Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) 1640, which was buffered to pH =7.0 using 0.165 M 3-morpholinopropane-1-sulfonic acid. The magnolol solution (100 μL of a 2-fold dilution) was pipetted into each well of a 96-well microtiter plate. The final concentration of magnolol ranged from 2.5 to 1,280 μg/mL.
