Description

Diallyl disulfide (DADS) or allyl disulfide is the main organosulfur ingredient in garlic, with known antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. It has been shown to have multi-targeted antitumor activities in a variety of cancer cells Experiments in vitro have revealed, that diallyl disulfide inhibits the metastasis of type Ⅱ esophageal-gastric junction adenocarcinoma cells via NF-κB and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways. At the same time, was shown the drug suppresses cell stemness, proliferation, metastasis and glucose metabolism in breast cancer stem cells partly through the inhibition of CD44/PKM2/AMPK. Besides diallyl disulfide can be a promising agent for the treatment of emphysema, this was discovered in experiments on rats. And also drug shows protective effects against acetaminophen (AAP)-induced acute hepatotoxicity.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
Rat emphysema model: the rat emphysema model was established by intraperitoneal injection of cigarette smoke extract (CSE). Each rat in the CSE group was intraperitoneally injected with 1mL CSE-PBS solution on days 1, 8, and 15. Rats in the diallyl disulfide (DADS) and budesonide groups were intraperitoneally injected with 1 mL of CSE on Days 1, 8, and 15 along with the daily injection of DADS or budesonide. The doss of test groups were as follows: 100 and 10 mg/kg/day for DADS and budesonide, respectively.
Route of Administration: Intraperitoneal
In Vitro Use Guide
Diallyl disulfide (DADS) inhibited cell viability of OE19 cells with low cytotoxicity to healthy hepatocytes, L02 cells, in vitro. Non-toxic doses of DADS were ≤10 µg/ml for a 24-h treatment. These non-toxic doses of DADS were found to block the metastasis of OE19 cells by suppressing MMPs, increasing u-PA and TIMPs, as well as altering the balance of MMPs/TIMPs, which at least in part resulted from the suppression of NF-κB and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways.
