Hinokitiol is a Zinc ionophore, and this capability is believed to inhibit viral replication. In brief, as a zinc ionophore, Hinokitiol aids in the transport molecules into cells through a plasma membrane or intracellular membrane, thus increasing the intracellular concentration of the specified molecule (ex. Zinc). Hence, by taking advantage of Zinc’s antiviral properties, in combination with Hinokitiol, Zinc uptake can be accelerated.[https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/neuroscience/ionophores]
