Description

6-Prenylpinocembrin is a terpenoid compound that has been identified as a potent inhibitor of human pathogens. It has shown significant cytotoxicity against Streptococcus species and other bacteria, and it also inhibits the growth of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus. 6-Prenylpinocembrin is structurally related to protocatechuic acid, an antimicrobial agent that is found in plants such as cinnamon. 6-Prenylpinocembrin may have antimicrobial activity due to its hydrogen bonding interactions with the bacterial cell membrane. These hydrogen bonds are disrupted by the presence of caffeine, which may be why coffee drinkers are less likely to get sick from fluconazole-resistant strains of Candida albicans.
