[6]-Shogaol has beneficial effects in spinal neuronal regeneration, but associated molecules and mechanisms are not identified. Neurotrophic factors, including brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), are associated with proliferation and differentiation of neuronal cells and exert a neuroprotective effect in neurodegenerative models.
