- Abstract
This article, published in the Chemistry of Natural Compounds journal, discusses the secondary metabolites of Zingiber oligophyllum, a plant commonly known as ginger. The rhizomes of this plant have been used in traditional medicine in East Asian, Indian, and Arabic herbal traditions for various ailments. The study isolated several compounds from the rhizomes of Z. oligophyllum for the first time, including phenylalkanoids, diarylheptanoids, and benzenoids. These compounds have potential anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, antithrombosis, and cancer chemopreventive activities, and may also help reduce arthritis symptoms. The research was supported by a grant from Yuan's General Hospital.
