Description

Alliin (S-allyl-l-cysteine sulfoxides, SACSO) is the major component of aged garlic extract, bearing broad-spectrum natural antioxidant properties. It was revealed, that alliin had an inhibitory effect in osteoclasteogenesis with a dose-dependent manner via blocking the c-Fos-NFATc1 signaling pathway and it could be a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of osteoporosis. In addition, alliin ameliorates gut inflammation through MAPK-NF-κB/AP-1/STAT-1 inactivation and PPAR-γ activation.

In Vitro Use Guide
Curator's Comment: The in vitro effect of alliin, on the mitogen induced peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) proliferation and cytokine production was examined. It was concluded that alliin in vitro exerts an immunomodulatory effect on certain functions of the peripheral blood cells. The results showed an increase in pokeweed mitogen (PWM) induced cell proliferation, IL-1beta and TNF-alpha production, as well as in the engulfing capacity of both percentage of phagocyting cells and number of latex particles phagocytized by each individual cell. The Con-A induced cell proliferation and IL-6 production decreased following incubation with alliin, whereas PHA-induced cell proliferation, IL-2 and superoxide anion generation remained unchanged.
