Amentoflavone is a biflavonoid (bis-apigenin coupled at 8 and 3 positions, or 3,8-biapigenin) constituent of a number of plants including Ginkgo biloba , Chamaecyparis obtusa (hinoki), Biophytum sensitivum , Selaginella tamariscina , [1] Hypericum perforatum (St. John's Wort) [2] and Xerophyta plicata . [3]

Amentoflavone can interact with many medications by being a potent inhibitor of CYP3A4 and CYP2C9, which are enzymes responsible for the metabolism of some drugs in the body. [4] It is also an inhibitor of human cathepsin B. [2]

Amentoflavone has a variety of in vitro activities including antimalarial activity, [5] anticancer activity (which may, at least in part, be mediated by its inhibition of fatty acid synthase), [6] [7] [8] and antagonist activity at the κ-opioid receptor (Ke = 490  nmol L1) [9] as well as activity at the allosteric benzodiazepine site of the GABAA receptor as a negative allosteric modulator. [10]
