Description of 6-gingerol

6-gingerol is an active compound isolated from Ginger with anticancer, anti-inflammation, and anti-oxidation activities [1]. 6-gingerol increases levels of antioxidant enzymes and inhibits inflammation and apoptosis through suppression of the signaling pathways of TLR4/ MAPK/ NF-κB[2]. 6-gingerol has been widely used to inhibit the growth of various cancer cells and to prevent lung metastasis in mice with melanoma[3].

In vitro, 6-gingerol treatment for 72 hours significantly inhibited the proliferation of SW-480 cells and HCT-116 cells, with IC50 values of 205μM and 283μM, respectively[4]. Treatment with 10μM 6-gingerol for 48 hours significantly inhibited the migration of MDA-MB-231 cells, accompanied by a decrease in the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9[5]. Treatment with 10μM 6-gingerol for 24 hours protected SH-SY5Y cells from the cytotoxicity and apoptosis induced by Aβ25-35 (20μM), and up-regulated cellular antioxidant defense capacity via activation of Nrf2[6].

In vivo, 6-gingerol treatment via oral administration at a dose of 20mg/kg/day for 15 weeks significantly attenuated chronic mild stress-accelerated atherosclerosis and improved behavioral changes in ApoE−/− mice [7]. Daily administration of 6-gingerol at a dose of 250mg/kg for 2 weeks significantly reduced dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced body weight loss and alleviated inflammatory injury in mice with ulcerative colitis[8].

Protocol of 6-gingerol

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

SW-480 cells

Preparation Method

SW-480 cells were cultured in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) along with 100U/ml penicillin, 50mg/ml streptomycin and 1mg/ml of amphotericin B in a 5% CO2 incubator at 37°C. 5×103 cells/well of SW-480 cells were seeded in 96-well plates for 24h. Different concentrations of 6-gingerol (0, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, 200, and 300μM) were added and incubated at 37°C with 5% CO2 for 72h. Cell viability was measured.

Reaction Conditions

0, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, 200, and 300μM; 72h

Applications

6-gingerol treatment significantly decreased cell viability of SW-480 cells in a dose-dependent manner.
Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

Male BALB/c mice

Preparation Method

Male BALB/c mice (6 weeks old) were housed in an environmentally controlled room (12h light-dark cycle, 50%±10% relative humidity) at 23±2°C at a facility with free access to water and food. The mice were orally administered 4% DSS-containing drinking water for one week, and then were orally administered 250mg/kg of 6-gingerol daily for two weeks. The body weight of the mice was analyzed, and the intestinal tissues of the mice were collected for analysis.

Dosage form

250mg/kg/day for 2 weeks; p.o.

Applications

6-gingerol treatment reduced inflammatory injury of intestinal tissues and weight loss caused by DSS in mouse models.
