S-Allylcysteine (SAC), the most abundant organosulfur compound in aged garlic extract, has multifunctional activity via different mechanisms and neuroprotective effects that are exerted probably via its antioxidant or free radical scavenger action. Anticancer effects of SAC were reported in prostate cancer, breast cancer, oral cavity cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, neuroblastoma, and hepatocellular carcinoma through the restoration of E-cadherin, the reduction of Slug and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) protein expression, and stimulating apoptotic pathways. In addition, recently was revealed, that SAC might have imperative implications for the deterrence and early treatment of type 2 diabetes by reducing the influx of glucose in the polyol pathway, thereby elevating the GSH level and reducing the activities of aldose reductase (AR) and sorbitol dehydrogenase (SDH).
