Activation of H-ras oncogenes in male B6C3F1 mouse liver tumors induced by vinthionine or 2-chloroethyl-methyl sulfide.

Only registered users can translate articles

Vinthionine (S-vinyl-DL-homocysteine) is hepatocarcinogenic in rats and mice. [Vinyl-14C]vinthionine binds covalently to rat liver DNA, RNA and protein in vivo, but not in vitro. This amino acid is directly mutagenic in Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and TA1535; the mechanism of its metabolic

Mammary cancer prevention by regular garlic and selenium-enriched garlic.

Only registered users can translate articles

The anticarcinogenic activities of regular (soil-grown) garlic and selenium-enriched garlic (cultivated in the greenhouse) were evaluated using the 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene-(DMBA) induced mammary tumor model in rats. In Experiment 1, milled regular garlic powder was added to the basal AIN-76A

2,6-Dithiopurine blocks toxicity and mutagenesis in human skin cells exposed to sulfur mustard analogues, 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide and 2-chloroethyl methyl sulfide.

Only registered users can translate articles

Sulfur mustard (bis-(2-chloroethyl)sulfide) is a well-known chemical warfare agent that induces debilitating cutaneous toxicity in exposed individuals. It is also known to be carcinogenic and mutagenic because of its ability to damage DNA via electrophilic attack. We previously showed that a

Oxidation-Triggerable Liposome Incorporating Poly(Hydroxyethyl Acrylate-co-Allyl methyl sulfide) as an Anticancer Carrier of Doxorubicin.

Only registered users can translate articles

Since cancer cells are oxidative in nature, anti-cancer agents can be delivered to cancer cells specifically without causing severe normal cell toxicity if the drug carriers are designed to be sensitive to the intrinsic characteristic. Oxidation-sensitive liposomes were developed by stabilizing

Mechanisms of the preventive properties of some garlic components in the carbon tetrachloride-promoted oxidative stress. Diallyl sulfide; diallyl disulfide; allyl mercaptan and allyl methyl sulfide.

Only registered users can translate articles

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

Enhancement by organosulfur compounds from garlic and onions of diethylnitrosamine-induced glutathione S-transferase positive foci in the rat liver.

Only registered users can translate articles

Ten organosulfur compounds from garlic and onions were studied for their modifying effects on diethylnitrosamine-induced neoplasia of liver in male F344 rats using the medium-term bioassay system of Ito based on the two-step model of hepatocarcinogenesis. Carcinogenic potential was scored by

Estradiol derivatives bearing sulfur-containing substituents at the 11beta or 7alpha positions: versatile reagents for the preparation of estrogen conjugates.

Only registered users can translate articles

Estradiol derivatives bearing HS-, HSCH(2)-, HSCH(2)CH(2)-, MeS-, MeSCH(2)-, MeSCH(2)CH(2)-, or PhCH(2)SCH(2)CH(2)-groups at the 11beta position or an HS-group at the 7alpha position have been synthesized, and their binding affinity to the estrogen receptor (ER) determined. Nearly all of these

Modulation of cytochrome P450 enzymes by organosulfur compounds from garlic.

Only registered users can translate articles

Organosulfur compounds (OSCs) derived from garlic have been studied for the ability to inhibit experimental cancer in various animal models, primarily through modification of carcinogen detoxification enzymes, such as cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. OSCs vary in structural and physical properties,

Modulation of rat hepatic cytochrome P-450 activity by garlic organosulfur compounds.

Only registered users can translate articles

Garlic organosulfur compounds exert chemopreventive effects at several organ sites in rodents after administration of chemical carcinogens, possibly by inhibiting carcinogen activation via cytochrome P-450-mediated oxidative metabolism. It has been suggested that the variability in potency of tumor

Covalent modification of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) by 2-acetoxyphenyl alkyl sulfides, a new class of selective COX-2 inactivators.

Only registered users can translate articles

All of the selective COX-2 inhibitors described to date inhibit the isoform by binding tightly but noncovalently at the substrate binding site. Recently, we reported the first account of selective covalent modification of COX-2 by a novel inactivator, 2-acetoxyphenyl hept-2-ynyl sulfide (70)

Nucleoside analogs. 14. The synthesis of antitumor activity in mice of molecular combinations of 5-fluorouracil and N-(2-Chloroethyl)-N-nitrosourea moieties separated by a three-carbon chain.

Only registered users can translate articles

5-fluorouracil (5-FU) seco-nucleosdies having as the "sugar" moiety a two-carbon (C2) side chain carrying a N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-nitrosourea group were designed as molecular combinations of antimetabolite and alkylating agent, but hydrolytic release of free 5-FU was not fast enough for significant

Disposition and metabolism of KW-2149, a novel anticancer agent.

Only registered users can translate articles

KW-2149 is a new derivative of mitomycin C (MMC). The plasma concentrations, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of [3H]-KW-2149 in normal and tumor-bearing mice after i.v. administration of 16.6 mg/kg were investigated. The plasma radioactivity decreased biexponentially after i.v.

Modulation of cytokine secretion by garlic oil derivatives is associated with suppressed nitric oxide production in stimulated macrophages.

Only registered users can translate articles

We previously described that garlic oil derivatives differentially suppress the production of nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) in activated macrophages. In the present study, we investigated the effects of the garlic derivatives, diallyl sulfide (DAS), diallyl disulfide (DADS), and

Anticarcinogenic properties of garlic: a review.

Only registered users can translate articles

Garlic is a popular spice added to several edible preparations and is a remedy for a variety of ailments. Epidemeological as well as laboratory studies have shown that garlic consumption reduces certain cancer incidences in the stomach, colon, mammary, cervical, etc. This article focuses on the
