Renal protection of s-allyl cysteine (SAC) and s-propyl cysteine (SPC) in diabetic mice against inflammatory injury was examined. Each agent at 0.5 and 1 g/L was added to the drinking water for 10 weeks. SAC or SPC intake significantly reduced the plasma blood urea nitrogen level and increased
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a deleterious autoimmune and demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system with debilitating sensory and motor complications. There is still no definite cure for it and the main focus for its treatment mostly pivots around subsiding its severity and recurrence.
In the present study, beneficial effect of S-allyl cysteine (SAC) was evaluated in the lipopolysaccharide/d-galactosamine (LPS/d-Gal) model of acute liver injury (ALI). To mimic ALI, LPS and d-Gal (50 μg/kg and 400 mg/kg, respectively) were intraperitoneally administered and animals received SAC per
Reactive oxygen species are involved in signal transduction pathways leading to nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) activation which has been implicated in the regulation of gene transcription. We recently reported that a garlic compound, S-allyl cysteine (SAC), protects bovine pulmonary artery
Garlic is a component of the Mediterranean diet. S-allyl cysteine (SAC), the most common organosulphur present in garlic, possesses neuroprotective properties. This investigation was performed to evaluate the dose-dependent protective action of SAC on oxidative damage, inflammation and gut
Hexavalent chromium (Cr (VI)) is a common environmental pollutant. Cr (VI) exposure can lead to severe damage to the liver, but the preventive measures to diminish Cr (VI)-induced hepatotoxicity need further study. S-allyl cysteine (SAC) is a constituent of garlic ( Allium sativum) and has many
Alleviative effects of s-allyl cysteine (SAC) and s-ethyl cysteine (SEC) upon methionine and choline deficient (MCD) diet-induced hepatotoxicity in mice were examined. SAC or SEC at 1g/L was added into drinking water for 7 weeks with MCD diet. MCD feeding significantly increased hepatic triglyceride
S‑allyl‑cysteine sulfoxide (alliin) is the main organosulfur component of garlic and its preparations. The present study aimed to examine the protective effect of alliin on cardiac function and the underlying mechanism in a mouse model of myocardial infarction (MI). Notably, alliin treatment
Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)-induced keratinocyte inflammation plays a key role in the pathogenesis of multiple inflammatory skin diseases. Here we investigated the anti-inflammatory effect of S-allyl cysteine (SAC) on TNF-α-induced HaCaT keratinocyte cells and the mechanism behind its
OBJECTIVE
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), the most highly prescribed drugs in the world for the treatment of pain, inflammation, and fever, are associated with gastric mucosal damages including ulcer directly or indirectly. This study was aimed to document the preventive effects of an
Oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and activation of the pleiotropic transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB), are often the chemical and molecular alterations associated with the development of the atherosclerotic lesion. We have reported previously on the antioxidant
S-allyl-cysteine (SAC) is one of the major compounds in aged garlic extract, and has been proved to be an endogenous donor of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), which plays emerging roles in the gastrointestinal tract and liver. In this study, Sprague-Dawley rats were intraperitoneally injected with a mixture
Sepsis is a serious and life-threatening medical condition with a higher rate of patients' morbidity and mortality and with complications such as acute kidney injury (AKI). S-allyl cysteine (SAC) is the active constituent of the medicinal plant garlic (Allium sativum) with multiple beneficial
In spite of the tremendous stride in modern medicine, conventional drugs used in the hepatotoxic management are mostly inadequate. The present study aims in the synthesis of novel Schiff base compound derived using s-allyl cystiene and methionine. The newly synthesized compound,
In vivo protective and alleviative effects of s-allyl cysteine (SAC), s-ethyl cysteine (SEC), s-methyl cysteine (SMC), and s-propyl cysteine (SPC) against alcohol-induced hepatotoxicity in Balb/cA mice were studied. In the preventive study, SAC, SEC, SMC, or SPC, each agent at 1 g/L, was added into
