Notes: 8-Gingerol is a natural chemical found in the rhizomes of ginger (Z. officinale). It contains the same aromatic region and polar link but has a longer hydrophobic tail than the more abundant 6-gingerol (Item No. 11707). Like 6-gingerol, 8-gingerol activates the transient receptor potential vanilloid receptor 1 (TRPV1; EC50 = 5.0 µM), inhibits COX-2, and inhibits the growth of H. pylori in vitro.{32701,25924} 8-Gingerol also augments wound healing, suppresses IL-2-induced proliferation of T lymphocytes, and potentiates β-agonist-induced relaxation of airway smooth muscle.{32699,32700,32704} Oral 8-gingerol is expected to be readily absorbed and rapidly metabolized by glucuronidation and sulfation, with minimal to modest effects on cytochrome P450 isoforms.{32702,32703}
