Dehydrozingerone analogs and related compounds were screened as potential antitumor promoters by using the in vitro short-term 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced Epstein-Barr virus early antigen activation assay. Among the 40 synthesized compounds, the prenylated analogs 16 and 34-36 showed the most significant
Antimutagenic activities of dehydrozingerone, benzalacetone and its analogs substituted with the hydroxyl, methoxyl or methyl group on the benzene ring were investigated by the post-treatment for UV-induced mutagenesis in Escherichia coli WP2s (uvrA). In this assay, dehydrozingerone was a poor

We have investigated the effect of phenolic antioxidants on cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity in vero (African Green Monkey Kidney) cells and in rat renal cortical slices in vitro, and on cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity in rats in vivo. Incubation of cisplatin with vero cells
The antioxidant properties of three related compounds, dehydrozingerone, isoeugenol and eugenol, were investigated using various models. Isoeugenol was found to be the most active in inhibiting ferrous-ion-, ferric-ion- and cumene-hydroperoxide-induced lipid peroxidation in rat brain homogenates. These compounds also showed
The antioxidant property of dehydrozingerone and its analogs were investigated in the ferric-ascorbate induced lipid peroxidation model in rat brain homogenate. All the non phenolic compounds were either inactive or less active, while phenolic compounds with substitution at both meta
