Polysulfanes show chemopreventive effects against gastrointestinal tumors. We identified diallyl tetrasulfide and its derivative, dibenzyl tetrasulfide (DBTTS), to be mitotic inhibitors and apoptosis inducers. Here, we translate their application in colorectal cancer (CRC). MALDI-TOF-MS analysis
BACKGROUND
Diallyl mono- and polysulfanes from garlic are known to induce an adaptive cell response and the formation of antioxidants in cancer cells. In the case of a severe ER stress and a failure in the response, cancer cells eventually go into apoptosis. Only little is known about the response
Garlic-derived organosulfur compounds including diallyl polysulfides are well known for various health-beneficial properties and recent reports even point to a potential role of diallyl polysulfides as chemopreventive and therapeutic agents in cancer treatment due to their selective
Coumarins and coumarin derivatives as well as diallyl polysulfides are well known as anticancer drugs. In order to find new drugs with anticancer activities, we combined coumarins with polysulfides in the form of di-coumarin polysulfides. These novel compounds were tested in the HCT116 colorectal
Diallyl sulfides, organosulfur compounds isolated from garlic (Allium sativum L.), selectively inhibit the activities of mammalian family X DNA polymerases (pols), such as pol β, pol λ and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT), in vitro. The purified fraction (i.e., Sample-A) consisted of
Diallyl polysulfanes, such as diallyl trisulfide and diallyl tetrasulfide, are regarded as a group of potential chemopreventive compounds as they have been proven to be effective inhibitors of cancer cells. These agents have been implicated in signal transductions, including the generation of
