Effectiveness in the Block by Honokiol, a Dimerized Allylphenol from<i> Magnolia Officinalis</i>, of Hyperpolarization-Activated Cation Current and Delayed-Rectifier K<sup>+</sup> Current

<strong>Background:</strong> Honokiol (HNK), a dimer of allylphenol obtained from the bark of <em>Magnolia officinalis</em> was demonstrated to exert an array of biological actions in different excitable cell types. However, whether or how this compound can lead to any pertur...
