Some pharmacological actions and acute toxicity effects of methyl- and phenyl-3-methoxy-4-hydroxy styryl ketones have been described in experimental animals. The compounds antagonised the contractions evoked by a variety of agonists on several smooth muscle preparations in vitro. They produced inhibitory

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

The efficacy of Dehydrozingerone (DZ; dehydroderivative of zingerone) as an antifungal agent and its mode of action against food spoilage fungal pathogens was studied and presented. DZ is a constituent of ginger (Zingiber officinale rhizomes) and structural half analogue of
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
