Gen info
- While all parts are used traditionally, only the bark has high commercial value. The tree is over-harvested and exploited, principally used as a binding agent in the incense stick industry and as a binding agent in tablet formulation. It is also used as plaster for fractured limbs.

Botany
Puso-puso is a small tree reaching a height of 10 to 15 meters. Younger parts are usually more or less softly hairy. Leaves are elliptical to oblong-elliptical, 9 to 20 centimeters long, broadly pointed at the base and tapering to a fine, pointed tip. Flowers are small and yellowish, crowded in umbels in the axis of the upper leaves. Fruits are rounded, about 8 millimeters in diameter.

Distribution
- In secondary forests at low and medium altitudes throughout the Philippines.
- Also occurs in India to southern China, through Malaya to tropical Australia.
- Endangered species in the Philippines.
- Because of unsustainable collection of the bark, it has become rare and vulnerable to extinction in many countries. (40)

Study of various hydrocarbon soluble extracts showed analgesic (acetic acid induced writhing test), ant-inflammatory (carrageenan paw edema), anti-pyretic, and thrombolytic (clot lysis) activities. (26)
• Biodiesel Potential / Fruit: Cetane number is the most important parameter of biodiesel. Cetane number of oil from Litsea glutinosa is 64.79 compared to Jatropha curcas with 57.1. Since it is not edible, it does not conflict with the issue of fuel versus food production. With its cetane number, it is ideal for ignition, and its fruit with 61.29% lipids can yield valuable quantities of biodiesel. The commercial production of fuel is dependent on the fruit, which seasonality limits. Litsea glutinosa has resisted transformation by Agrobacterium rhizogenes. (30)
• Hepatoprotective
/ CCl4 and Paracetamol Hepatotoxicity: Study evaluated the hepatoprotective activity of methanol extract of Litsea glutinosa on carbon tetrachloride and paracetamol induced hepatotoxicity in rats. Oral ME of Litsea glutinosa (100-200 mg/kg) provided significant dose dependent protection against paracetamol and CCl4 hepatotoxicity and restored biochemical parameters to control levels. Activity was comparable to silymarin. (33)
• Mosquito Larvicidal / Leaves:
Study investigated the effect of Mhee Men crude extract as biologic control against Aedes aegypti larvae. A crude methanol extract yielded 32.30% saponins. Extract showed highest larval mortality after 48 hr exposure, with highest larval mortality at 15 mg/L (20.5% ± 4.15) with LC50 and LC90 value of 34.90 and 62.30 g/L against Ae. aegypti larvae, respectively. (34)
• Acute Oral Toxicity Study / Stem Bark: Study evaluated an ethanol extract of stem bark of Litsea glutinosa for in vitro cytotoxicity against breast adenocarcinoma, prostate, and colon cancer cell lines. Results showed no cytotoxicity against cell lines from 5 to 320 µg/ml. In acute toxicity study, no lethality was observed up to 3000 mg/kbw. (36)
• Antiproliferative Aporphine Alkaloids:
Four known aporphine alkaloids
viz., N-methylactinodaphnine (1), boldine (2), N-methyllaurotetanine (3), and isoboldine (4) were tested for cytotoxicity against HT29, SKMEL28, and primary human keratinocytes. Compound 1 was the most cytotoxic possible through the mechanism of stabilization of topoisomerase II (ß) DNA-enzyme complex. (37)
• Cellular Proliferation in Wound Healing / Aerial Parts:
Study of extracts of Litsea glutinosa leaves on proliferation of primary dermal fibroblasts and immortalized human keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT) in the context of wound healing. A neutral fraction exhibited 153% proliferation (p<0.01) in HaCaT cell at 100 µg/ml concentration, but show no significant effects against dermal fibroblasts. (38)
• Hair Loss Treatment Using Jak Inhibitors:
Studies are looking into the potential use of Jak inhibitors for the treatment of hair loss. Jak inhibitors were developed to interfere with the signal pathways of the Jak family or Janus kinase. Jak inhibitors, ruxolitinib and tofacitinib, have been studied for the treatment of alopecia areata and other scalp and hair problems. Abnormal activity of the Jak enzymes can result in hair loss. Ruxolitinib and tofacitinib are being evaluated for topical or oral use in the treatment of hair loss. (39)

Detergency Property / Saponins:
Study evaluated the detergency properties of surfactant extracts from the most frequently cited detergent plants in northern Thailand viz. Sapindus rarak. Acacia concinna, and Litsea glutinosa. The plants showed moderate in foaming and detergency abilities compared to synthetic surfactant. Phytochemical analysis detected saponins in L. glutinosa plant extracts. Highest callus formation was found in L. glutinosa explant. Mass spectrometry showed the surfactant was of the steroidal diagnostic type. (41)
Osteoprotective:
Study evaluated the ossteoprotective efficacy of crude extracts of three botanicals viz. Curcuma aromatica, Terminalia arjuna and Litsea glutinosa using serum and tissue biochemical parameters in an ovariectomized rats. Litsea and Curcuma showed significant effects in ameliorating the changes induced by ovraiectomy, while Terminalia had no effect. Both plants showed inhibitory activity similar to that seen with estrogen supplementation. Bone remodeling markers were upregulated in OVX an9immals and amelioration was seen with plant treatment. (42)
Antihyperglycemic / Antihyperlipidemic / Alkaloid-Rich Bark:
Study evaluated the the anti-hyperglycemic and anti-hyperlipidemic effects of an alkaloid-rich bark extract of L. glutinosa in ob/ob mice. Results showed significantly reduced serum levels of fast9ing glucose HbA1c, and glycosylated serum protein (GSP). Increased insulin sensitivity was evidenced by decreased fasting serum insulin reduced insulin resistance. There was alleviation of dyslipidemia, amelioration of liver steatosis, increased activity of serum lipase and alleviated inflammation. Results;ts suggest potential as an effective agent for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. (45)
Glutinosine A / Morphinandienone Alkaloid / Effect on Glucose Consumption of HrpG2 Cells / Root Bark:
Study isolated a mew morphinandienone alkaloid, glutinoside A, from the root bark of Litsea glutinosa. The compound showed no activity on stimulating glucose consumption in HepG2 cells. (46)
Antidiarrheal / / Potentiation of M3- Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor:
Diarrhea is one of the leading preventable causes of deaths in developing countries. Study of Litsea glutinosa identified five novel compounds and evaluated them for antidiarrheal potential in microorganism- and chemical-induced diarrhea models. M3-muscariinic acetylcholine and 5-HT3 targets were used to evaluated the binding affinity using molecular docking analysis. A pure compound, oxoaporphine, was isolated from the methanol extract. The extract showed statistically significant zones of inhibition, highest against Shiigella dysenteriae and E. coli, 24 and 16 respectively. compared to ciprofloxacin. In castor oil-induced diarrhea, the same extracts showed 82.50% inhibition, significant compared to loperamide. In biochemical assays, EA and ME extracts restored Na, K, Cl and HCO3 levels in induced diarrhea model. The EA extract normalized IgE and CRP The oxoaporphine showed lower binding energy which was close to loperamide. (47)
