Yangonin is a natural kavalactone from the kava plant, P. methysticum. It enhances the binding of bicuculline at the γ-amino butyric acid (GABA) receptor GABAA at 1.0 µM.{25728} Yangonin also binds the central cannabinoid (CB1) receptor with a Ki value of 0.72 µM, but whether it serves as an agonist or antagonist at this receptor remains to be determined.{25724} Yangonin blocks the activation of NF-κB by TNF-α.{25725} It also inhibits anchorage-dependent and independent growth of bladder cancer cell lines through induction of autophagic cell death (IC50s = 15-59 mg/mL).{36099}
