Significance: This study suggests that 6-Gingerol, by increasing the expression of its target miRNA, it may suppress the expression of EGFR. Thereby, it may inhibit invasion and metastatic property of tumor cells. Thus, pharmacological formulations encompassing ” 6-Gingerol or its related analogs” may used to treat EGFR-overexpressing tumors.
