Pinoresinol dimethyl ether is a nonphenolic furan lignan isolated from the stem bark of Magnolia kobus with neurological activity. It stimulates upstream MAPK, PKC and PKA pathways and induces neural protrusion growth in PC12 cells.

(+)-Pinoresinol monomethyl ether 4-O-β-D-glucoside is a natural product.

(±)-Pinoresinol is a natural product for research related to life sciences. The catalog number is TN5415 and the CAS number is 4263-88-1.

(+)-pinoresinol-β-D-glucoside; (+)-pinor is the major active furanoid lignan in Lianxian. It shows antioxidant, hypotensive and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) phosphodiesterase inhibitory activities.

(-)-Pinoresinol is isolated from the whole plant of Serissa japonica (Thunb.) Thunb.

Pinoresinol diacetate inhibits the enzyme α-glucosidase in vitro and may therefore act as a hypoglycemic agent.

(-)-Pinoresinol 4-O-glucoside is a natural product from Lonicera japonica THUNB.

Pinoresinol ((+)-Pinoresinol) has antiinflammatory, hepatoprotective, and fungicidal activities, it can protect pial microcirculation from I-reperfusion injury, to increase nitric oxide release and to reduce oxidative stress preserving pial blood flow distribution; it may exert pharmacologically interesting effects via modulation of the insulin-like signalling pathway in C.elegans. Pinoresinol causes an upregulation of the CDK inhibitor p21(WAF1/Cip1) both at mRNA and protein levels, inhibits NF-kappaB and activating protein 1 (AP-1).

1. Pinoresinol diglucoside (Pinoresinol Diglucopyranoside) is a putative α-glucosidase inhibiting compound. 2. Pinoresinol diglucoside is a important antihypertensive compound.
