In this 2018 study, Wang et al. examined honokiol (the main component of Magnolia officinalis) and its ability to reduce depressive-like symptoms in rats with chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS). This investigation comes after honokiol demonstrating a variety of pharmacological activities. The potentially antidepressant effects of honokiol were tested in the rats by an open […]
