Anti-inflammatory effects of onions: inhibition of chemotaxis of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes by thiosulfinates and cepaenes.

Only registered users can translate articles

Seven different synthetic thiosulfinates, and cepaene- and/or thiosulfinate-rich onion extracts were found to inhibit in vitro the chemotaxis of human granulocytes induced by formyl-methionine-leucine-phenylalanine in a dose-dependent manner and at a concentration range of 0.1-100 microM.

Chemical composition, in vitro antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of essential oils of four dietary and medicinal plants from Cameroon.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND In the Cameroonian traditional medicine, plants of the Capparidaceae, Euphorbiaceae and Liliaceae families are used to treat several metabolic diseases. These plants are rich in various compounds belonging to the glucosinolates and thiosulfinates family. Till date, very little studies

Data on chromatographic isolation of cysteine mixed-disulfide conjugates of Allium thiosulfinates and their role in cellular thiol redox modulation.

Only registered users can translate articles

This data article contains experimental data on the preparation and semi-preparative isolation of S-Alk(en)ylmercaptocysteine (CySSRs, R = allyl, "A", 1-propenyl, "Pe" or methyl, "Me") generated through conjugation reactions between allyl and 1-propenyl enriched thiosulfinates (TS) and cysteine. The

Cysteine and glutathione mixed-disulfide conjugates of thiosulfinates: chemical synthesis and biological activities.

Only registered users can translate articles

The chemical syntheses of cysteine (CYS) and glutathione (GSH) mixed -disulfide conjugates (CySSR, GSSR, respectively) of mercapto residues representing most of the R groups of thiosulfinates (R = methyl, ethyl, propyl, and allyl) are described. Gram-scale conjugates were prepared as >98% pure

Enhanced activation of the transient receptor potential channel TRPA1 by ajoene, an allicin derivative.

Only registered users can translate articles

TRPA1 is a calcium-permeable, nonselective cation channel expressed in the dorsal root ganglion and trigeminal ganglia nociceptive neurons. It is activated by the pungent compounds in mustard oil (AITC, allyl isothiocyanate), cinnamon (cinnamaldehyde), garlic (allicin), and is believed to mediate

Anti-asthmatic effects of onions. Alk(en)ylsulfinothioic acid alk(en)yl-esters inhibit histamine release, leukotriene and thromboxane biosynthesis in vitro and counteract PAF and allergen-induced bronchial obstruction in vivo.

Only registered users can translate articles

Five alk(en)ylsulfinothioic acid alk(en)yl-esters isolated from onions and four synthetic thiosulfinates inhibited 5-lipoxygenase of porcine leucocytes, histamine release and leukotriene B4 and C4 biosynthesis of human polymorphonuclear leucocytes, thromboxane B2 biosynthesis by human platelets and

Inhibition of platelet activation by lachrymatory factor synthase (LFS)-silenced (tearless) onion juice.

Only registered users can translate articles

Onion and garlic are renowned for their roles as functional foods. The health benefits of garlic are attributed to di-2-propenyl thiosulfinate (allicin), a sulfur compound found in disrupted garlic but not found in disrupted onion. Recently, onions have been grown with repressed lachrymatory factor

Antiasthmatic effects of onions. Prevention of platelet-activating factor induced bronchial hyperreactivity to histamine in guinea pigs by diphenylthiosulfinate.

Only registered users can translate articles

Thiosulfinates are responsible for antiasthmatic and anti-inflammatory properties of onions. We tested the effect of diphenylthiosulfinate on platelet-activating factor (PAF)-induced bronchial hyperreactivity to histamine: According to a randomized crossover protocol, groups of 14 guinea pigs

Immunomodulatory Effects of the Nutraceutical Garlic Derivative Allicin in the Progression of Diabetic Nephropathy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is presently the primary cause of chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). It has been suggested that inflammation and oxidative stress, in addition to or in concert with the metabolic changes, plays an important role in the maintenance and progression of

S-alk(en)ylmercaptocysteine: chemical synthesis, biological activities, and redox-related mechanism.

Only registered users can translate articles

S-Alk(en)ylmercaptocysteine (CySSR, R = methyl, ethyl, propyl, 1-propenyl, and allyl), which are the putative metabolites of Allium thiosulfinates, were chemically synthesized. CySSR, but not the corresponding monosulfide species S-alk(en)yl cysteine (CySR), were able to induce quinone reductase

New natural agonists of the transient receptor potential Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channel

Only registered users can translate articles

The transient receptor potential (TRP) channels family are cationic channels involved in various physiological processes as pain, inflammation, metabolism, swallowing function, gut motility, thermoregulation or adipogenesis. In the oral cavity, TRP channels are involved in chemesthesis, the sensory
