Paeonol is a phenolic compound found in peony such as Paeonia suffruticosa (moutan cortex),[2][3] in Arisaema erubescens,[4] and in Dioscorea japonica.[5] It is a component found in many Traditional Chinese medicine remedies.[6]

Biological effects

Paeonol increases levels of cortical cytochrome oxidase and vascular actin and improves behavior in a rat model of Alzheimer's disease.[7] Paeonol also reduced cerebral infarction involving the superoxide anion and microglia activation in ischemia-reperfusion injured rats.[8]

It shows antimutagenic activities.[2][5] It also has anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects in carrageenan-evoked thermal hyperalgesia.[9] Paeonol inhibits anaphylactic reaction by regulating histamine and TNF-α.[10]

It has demonstrated significant MAOI activity. MAO-A and MAO-B inhibiting effects with IC50 values of 54.6 μM and 42.5 μM respectively.[11]
