Использование

[6]-Gingerol has been used:

• to study its effects on transient receptor potential (TRP) channels
• to study its effects on experimental models of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis
• to determine its effects on microsomal prostaglandine E2 synthase 1 (mPGES-1), glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β) and β-catenin pathway in A549 cell line
• to analyse the effects of 6-Shogaol (6-SG) on diabetic nephropathy (DN) in db/db mice

Определение

ChEBI:Gingerol is a beta-hydroxy ketone that is 5-hydroxydecan-3-one substituted by a 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl moiety at position 1; believed to inhibit adipogenesis. It is a constituent of fresh ginger. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent and a plant metabolite. It is a beta-hydroxy ketone and a member of guaiacols.

разработк И противоопухолевых препаратов

6-Gingerol is a plant polyphenol and an active constituent of Zingiber officinale, which shows antioxidant, anti-inflammation, and antitumor properties. It has been reported to possess anti-cancer and chemopreventive potentials against several cancers, including skin, colorectal, gastrointestinal and pancreatic. It can inhibit NOS, TNF-α, and COX-2 enzymes, which are regulated by NF-κB. It hinders the cell growth of prostate, gastric, and breast cancer cells and suppresses the lung metastasis of B16F10 melanoma. It exhibits an antitumorigenic effect in human colorectal cancer cells via upregulating NSAID-activated gene-1 (NAG-1). Italters ERK1/2/JNK/AP1 pathway and induces apoptosis in colon cancer cells in acaspase-dependent manner. ROS levels were significantly increased in K562 and MOLT4 cells treated with gingerol, and apoptosis was induced in leukaemia cells by the mitochondrial pathway.
