Phytochemical Name : Diallyl disulfide

Properties Information
PhytoCAT-ID PhytoCAT-1056
Phytochemical name or plant extracts Diallyl disulfide
PMID 22981381
Literature evidence MCF-7 cells treated with DATS also exhibited increased DNA binding activity of AP-1, which was blocked by NAC and the JNK inhibitor.
IUPAC name 3-(prop-2-enyldisulfanyl)prop-1-ene
Phytochemicals’ class or type of plant extracts Organosulfur
Source of phytochemicals or plant Extracts Allium sativum
Geographical availability Iran, Kazakhstan, Kirgizstan, Tadzhikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan
Plant parts NA
Other cancers Breast cancer
Target gene or protein Bax, Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, Bcl-w
Gene or Protein evidence Further studies revealed that DADS modulates the cellular levels of Bax, Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, and Bcl-w in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting the involvement of Bcl-2 family proteins in DADS induced apoptosis.
Target pathways DADS was shown to cause caspase-dependent apoptosis in human breast cancer cells MCF-7 through the Bax-triggered mitochondrial pathway
IC50 NA
Potency NA
Cell line/ mice model MCF-7
Additional information  Here it is shown that DADS has HDACi properties in MCF-7 cells as it lowers the removal of an acetyl group from an acetylated substrate and induces histone-4 (H4) hyper-acetylation.
