Pinoresinol

Phenol,4-(tetrahydro-1H,3H-furo[3,4-c]furan-1,4-diyl)bis[2-methoxy-, [1S-(1.alpha.,3a.alpha.,4.alpha.,6a.alpha.)]-

4-[6-(4-Hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,3a,4,6,6a-hexahydrofuro[3,4-c]furan-3-yl]-2-methoxyphenol is a natural product found in Zanthoxylum riedelianum, Forsythia suspensa, and other organisms with data available. Pinoresinol is a lignol of plant origin serving for defense in a caterpillar. Pinoresinol drastically sensitizes cancer cells against TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) -induced apoptosis[1][2].
