Abstract:Alpinia galanga have been widely used as spice or traditional medicine in East Asia, commonly known as Thai ginger. In the present study, seven major phenylpropanoids, (±)-1′-hydoxychavicol acetate (1; HCA), (1′S)-1′-acetoxychavicol acetate (2; ACA), (1′S)-1′-acetoxyeugenol acetate (3; AEA), eugenyl acetate (4), trans-p-coumaraldehyde (5), trans-p-acetoxycinnamyl alcohol (6), and trans-p-coumaryl diacetate (7), were isolated from the 95% EtOH and hot water extracts of the rhizomes of A. galanga by chromatograp… Show more
“…Compound 346 (2.5, 5.0, and 10 mM) from A. galanga improved glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and inhibited aglucosidase activity in rat pancreatic b-cells. 30 Moreover, 335 (135 mM) and 338 (25 mM) increased the viability of human umbilical vein endothelial cells damaged by high glucose by 83% and 75%, respectively. 103 3.9.…”
Alpinia is the largest genus in the ginger family, Zingiberaceae, and comprises about 500 species. It is known to have various secondary metabolites and biological properties on account of those metabolites.
