[6]-Gingerol

An antitumor, apoptosis-inducing compound of the ginger family that blocks EGF-induced cell transformation by inhibiting the activation of Activator Protein-1 (AP-1).


Phytochemical compound isolated from the extract of rhizome of ginger. Along with other related compounds found in ginger extracts inhibits prostaglandin and leukotriene biosynthesis through the suppression of 5-lipoxygenase and prostaglandin synthetase. Also exhibits anti-tumor and apoptosis-inducing effects. Blocks EGF-induced cell transformation by inhibiting the activation of Activator protein-1 (AP-1). Shown to inhibit the EGF-induced, sequence-specific DNA-binding of AP-1. Does not effect EGF-induced phosphorylation of ERK or p38 kinases. Also increases the Ca2+-ATPase activity of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (EC50 = 4 µM).
