Germacrone Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Description

Germacrone is a sesquiterpene that has been found in gingeraceae plants and has diverse biological activities. It inhibits pseudorabies virus (PRV) replication in Vero cells when used at concentrations ranging from 10 to 150 μM. Germacrone (50-250 μM) enhances cytotoxicity and apoptosis induced by doxorubicin in doxorubicin-resistant MCF-7/adr cells. In vivo, germacrone (5, 10, and 20 mg/kg) reduces body weight gain, visceral fat pad weight, serum insulin and plasma glucose levels, and hepatic lipid levels in a mouse model of high-fat diet-induced obesity. It decreases brain malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPX), as well as reduces infarct volume in a rat model of ischemia-reperfusion injury induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO).

Uses

Germacrone is an antiviral isolate of Geranium macrorrhizum which inhibits and prevents early stage influenza virus infection. It also inhibits the proliferation of glioma cells by promoting apoptosis.

Definition

ChEBI: (E,E)-germacrone is a germacrane sesquiterpenoid that has formula C15H22O. It is a natural product found in traditional medicinal plants of the family Zingiberaceae. The compound exhibits a range of pharmacological activities including anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antiviral, anti-androgenic, antioxidant, antimicrobial, antifungal, neuroprotective and insecticidal activities. It has a role as a volatile oil component, an antiviral agent, an insecticide, an anti-inflammatory agent, an antioxidant, an antineoplastic agent, an apoptosis inducer, an autophagy inducer, an antimicrobial agent, an androgen antagonist, a neuroprotective agent, a plant metabolite, an antifungal agent, an antitussive, an antifeedant and a hepatoprotective agent.
