Zingerone Mitigates Carrageenan-Induced Inflammation Through Antioxidant and Anti-inflammatory Activities

xlomafota.13 shared this article with you from Inoreader

Abstract

Inflammation is the body's response against various pathogens and has a critical role in numerous diseases. Zingerone (Zing), a bioactive substance derived from ginger root, has a variety of pharmacological properties, such as reducing inflammation, and antioxidant effects. We aimed to evaluate the beneficial effects of Zing in a carrageenan-induced inflammation model. Paw edema induced by carrageenan (100 μl of 1%) was used to induce acute inflammation in rats. Different doses of Zing (10, 20, and 40 mg/kg) were administered intraperitoneally. Paw tissue levels of MDA, NO, CAT, SOD, GPx, GSH, COX-2, PGE2, TNF-α, and IL-1β were estimated. Our results showed that Zing, especially at the highest dose of 40 mg/kg, significantly reduced paw swelling in carrageenan-injected animals. Zing significantly increased paw enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidants except CAT. It also decreased paw levels of MDA, NO, COX-2, PGE2, TNF-α, and IL-1β. The results of this study show that Zing may provide an alternative for the clinical control of inflammation through antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities.
