(-)-α-Pinene（Cat No.:R015502） is a monoterpenoid compound known for its presence in various plants, including coniferous trees. It has been found to possess sleep-enhancing properties by directly binding to GABAA-benzodiazepine (BZD) receptors. Acting as a partial modulator, (-)-α-pinene interacts with the BZD binding site, which is involved in regulating sleep and relaxation. Its effects on sleep are attributed to its interaction with the GABAergic system, which plays a key role in sleep regulation. Further research is necessary to fully understand the mechanisms and potential therapeutic applications of (-)-α-pinene in sleep disorders.
