Hinokinin was isolated for the first time by Yoshiki and Ishiguro in 1933 from hinoki wood.[4]
Hinokinin is a colourless crystalline compound.[citation needed]
It can be isolated from various species of Chamaecyparis, Zanthoxylum, Phyllanthus, Aristolochia, Piper, Virola, Linum and Bursera. It is also synthesised from pinoresinol.[1]
Cytotoxic actions
Hinokinin has shown to induce apoptosis and promote antitumor actions on various cancer cell lines in vitro.[5]
Anti-inflammatory actions
Hinokinin has been shown to inhibit the generation of superoxide molecules by neutrophils and also decreases elastase secretion from neutrophils.[6] It has also shown to reduce LPS induced nitric oxide production from macrophages.The anti-inflammatory property of hinokinin is mediated by the NF-kB signalling mechanism.[7]
Anti-parasitic actions
Hinokinin has been shown to be an antitrypanosomal agent. Its use as a treatment for trypanosomiasis is still being researched.[8]
Anti-viral actions
It has shown significant antiviral activity against human hepatitis B virus, HIV and SARS-CoV.[9]
