    The crude extracts of Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex in different solvents have the pharmacological effects in vitro, among which petroleum ether and ethanol extracts have the strongest effects. Magnolol and honokiol are principal active components against coccus of Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex. The effect of magnolol seems stronger than honokiol. Magnolol and honokiol inhibit the expression of hemolytic enzyme, α-hemolysin, enterotoxin-A and enterotoxin-B in Staphylococcus aureus to block autolysis, and to decrease adhesiveness and virulence of Staphylococcus aureus, so blocking coccobacteria-induced inflammatory injury on host cell. Magnolol and honokiol inhibit Staphylococcus aureus of bacterial biofilm to synthesize and secrete eDNA and PIA, and to inhibit formation of bacterial biofilm, so decreasing self-protective ability of coccus to product effect of anti-coccus. In this paper, the pharmacological effects of magnolia officinalis and its components, magnolol and honokiol, against various coccus in vitro have been reviewed, and the research progress has been analyzed.
