Synopsis
Ginkgetin is a biflavonoid compound isolated from Ginkgo biloba leaves and some other plants. Its relevance to Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is based on early-stage scientific studies, primarily in vitro (cell-based) and animal models. Research suggests that Ginkgetin exhibits neuroprotective properties, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, and may inhibit key enzymes involved in AD pathology, such as β-secretase and acetylcholinesterase. Some studies have shown Ginkgetin can reduce amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregation and deposition, a hallmark of AD, and may improve cognitive function in animal models.
Despite these promising findings, there is currently a lack of robust clinical evidence in humans to confirm Ginkgetin’s efficacy or safety for treating or supporting Alzheimer's Disease. Most of the available data are preclinical, and no large-scale randomized controlled trials have been conducted. Ginkgetin is not widely recognized or approved as a treatment for AD by regulatory agencies. Thus, while there is some scientific rationale and preliminary evidence (hence a rating of 2), its use is not yet scientifically validated for AD in clinical practice.
In summary, Ginkgetin’s application to Alzheimer's Disease is based on early scientific exploration, but much more research—particularly in humans—is needed before it can be considered an evidence-based intervention.
