MedKoo Cat#: 145740 | Name: Zederone

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Zederone is a germacrane-type sesquiterpene isolated from the rhizomes of Curcuma elata (Zingiberaceae). Zederone significantly inhibits cell proliferation and downregulates the protein expressions of mTOR and phosphorylated p70 S6 kinase (p-p70s6K) in SKOV3 cells. Zederone is a bioactive compound with notable anticancer and antibacterial properties, though its hepatotoxic potential warrants caution in its application.
