Shogaol ([6]-Shogaol) has anticancer activity against several cell lines[1]. Shogaol ([6]-Shogaol) is identified to be cytotoxic in various cell lines, with KB (IC50=7.4±2.2 μM) and HL60 (IC50=7.9±2.0 μM) cells most susceptible to 6-shogaol[2]. 6-shogaol (IC50=8 μM) has much stronger growth inhibitory effects than 6-gingerol (IC50=150 μM) on HCT-116 human colon cancer cells[3]. Shogaol ([6]-Shogaol) stimulates phosphorylations of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) such as ERK, JNK, and p38. Moreover, the 6-shogaol-induced expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 are attenuated by treatments of SB202190 (a p38 specific inhibitor) and LY294002 (an Akt specific inhibitor)[4].
