|Section2= |Section3= }} Yangonin is one of the six major kavalactones found in the kava plant. It has been shown to possess significant binding affinity for the cannabinoid receptor CB1, where it behaves as an agonist. As a result, yangonin may be responsible for some of kava's intoxicating effects. ==Medical use== The CB1 activity of yangonin likely contributes to its psychoactive effects. This, along with the GABAergic effects of other kavalactones has given kava a use in the ethnobotanical treatment of anxiety, insomnia, pain, and other disorders. However, anxiety relief is unlikely to be contributed to yangonin's CB1 agonistic properties as CB1 agonism can be anxiogenic rather than anxiolytic. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yangonin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
