We searched for novel agonists of TRP receptors especially for TRPA1 and TRPV1 in foods. We focused attention on garlic compounds, diallyl sulfide (DAS), diallyl disulfide (DADS), and diallyl trisulfide (DATS). In TRPA1 or TRPV1 heterogeneously expressed CHO cells, all of those compounds increased
Diallyl sulfide (DAS) and diallyl disulfide (DADS) were used to determine viability and inhibition of arylamine N-acetyltransferase (NAT) activity in human bladder tumor cells. The NAT activity was measured by high performance liquid chromatography assaying for the amounts of
Diallyl sulfide (DAS) is a flavor compound derived from garlic and is active in the inhibition of chemically induced cytotoxicity and carcinogenicity in animal models. This study was conducted to examine the effects of the treatment of DAS and garlic homogenates on the activities of catalase,
Diallyl sulfide (DAS) and diallyl disulfide (DADS), major components of garlic, were used to determine inhibition of arylamine N-acetyltransferase (NAT) activity in a human colon tumour (adenocarcinoma) cell line. Two assay systems were performed, one with cellular cytosols (9000g supernatant), the
Two components of garlic, diallyl sulfide (DAS) and diallyl disulfide (DADS), inhibited arylamine N-acetyltransferase (NAT) activity and 2-aminofluorene-DNA adduct in human promyelocytic leukemia cells (HL-60). The NAT activity was measured by high performance liquid chromatography assaying for
The mechanisms by which diallyl sulfide (DAS), a component of garlic oil, inhibits hepatocarcinogenicity of 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) were examined in male Fischer 344 rats. Rats were subjected to partial hepatectomy to stimulate hepatocellular proliferation required for initiation by DMH (50-200
Diallyl sulfide (DAS), one of the major organosulfur compounds (OSCs) of garlic, is recognized as a group of potential chemoproventive compounds. In this study, we examines the early signaling effects of DAS on renal cells loaded with Ca(2+)-sensitive dye fura-2. It was found that DAS caused an
The objectives of this study were to investigate the effects of various concentrations and incubation time intervals of diallyl sulfide (DAS), an active principle of garlic, on cell viability, and glutathione (GSH) concentration and its related enzymes activities in rat hepatocytes. According to the
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of the active principles in garlic-- diallyl sulfide (DAS) and diallyl disulfide (DADS)--on aflatoxin B(1) (AFB(1))-induced DNA damage in primary rat hepatocytes. Primary rat hepatocytes, induced with DNA damage using 10 microM AFB(1) were
Previous work in our laboratory demonstrated that cytochrome P450 2B1 in rat liver was induced, but P450 2E1 was inhibited and inactivated, by diallyl sulfide (DAS), a compound derived from garlic. Such a selective effect on P450 enzymes is of considerable interest toward the understanding of
In order to predict the chemopreventive activity of garlic on gastric cancer, the effect of diallyl sulfide (DAS), a natural extract of the garlic, on MNNG-induced nuclear aberration (NA) and ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity in Wistar rat glandular stomach mucosa was studied. The results
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
Constituent chemicals in garlic extract are known to induce phase I and phase II enzymes in rodent livers. Here we have utilized Car(+/+) and Car(-/-) mice to demonstrate that the nuclear xenobiotic receptor CAR regulated the induction of the estrogen sulfotransferase Sult1e1 gene by diallyl sulfide
Previous studies evidenced that garlic extracts and/or garlic components were able to prevent against chemically induced tumors or acute toxic effects of chemicals (e.g. CCl4 induced liver injury). The chemopreventive potential of garlic has been attributed to the presence in it of several bioactive
It was shown that aged garlic extract (AGE), garlic powder and the following garlic-derived compounds: S-allylcysteine (SAC), diallyl sulfide (DAS) and diallyl disulfide (DADS), ameliorate gentamicin (GM)-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. However, it was not established if the above mentioned extracts
