Zingerone (Vanillylacetone) is a nontoxic methoxyphenol isolated from Zingiber officinale, with potent anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, antilipolytic, antidiarrhoeic, antispasmodic and anti-tumor[3] properties[1]. Zingerone alleviates oxidative stress and inflammation, down-regulates NF-κB mediated signaling pathways[2]. Zingerone acts as an anti-mitotic agent, and inhibits the growth of neuroblastoma cells[3].

In Vitro	Zingerone is a nontoxic methoxyphenol with potent anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, antilipolytic, antidiarrhoeic, antispasmodic properties[1]. Zingerone (0-2 mM) decreases neruoblastoma cell survival[3]. Zingerone (0-2 mM) reduces cyclin D1 expression, increases cleavage of caspase-3 and PARP-1 in BE(2)-M17 cells[3].
In Vivo	Zingerone (50, 100  mg/kg, p.o. daily for 21 days) protects against alloxan-induced diabetes via alleviation of oxidative stress and inflammation in rat[2]. Zingerone (10 mg/kg, i.p.) inhibits tumor progression through mitotic arrest, failure of cell division, and stimulation of apoptosis[3].
