Lindera megaphylla
Lindera megaphylla
Lindera megaphylla, a plant native to East Asia, has not been extensively used in traditional medicine. The scientific evidence primarily focuses on its genetic makeup and potential biological activities rather than its medicinal uses. A high-quality genome of Lindera megaphylla has been sequenced, revealing gene expansions related to terpenoid biosynthesis and identifying genes involved in volatile compound production. This study also identified stable reference genes for RT-qPCR analysis under different conditions but did not assess any direct health effects. The plant's D-dicentrine analogue 1 showed more potent cytotoxic effects and stronger topoisomerase II inhibition than the natural compound in some cancer cell lines, suggesting potential anti-cancer activity. No major safety issues or drug interactions have been recorded for Lindera megaphylla to date.
