| Abstract: | Ten shogaols were synthesized to evaluate the importance of the side-chain length in protecting cells from betaA(1-42) insult using PC12 rat pheochromocytoma and IMR-32 human neuroblastoma cells. The compounds cell protectivity against betaA insult was demonstrated using 3-4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) reduction assay. The efficacy of cell protection from betaA insult by these shogaols was shown to improve as the length of the side chain increase. |
