Green Tea Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) In Reduced Risk and Treatment of Esophageal Cancer

Esophageal cancer is a medical condition characterized by irregular cell growth in the tissues of the esophagus. At the later stage, the cancerous cells may travel a distance away to invade other healthy tissues and organs.
According to statistic, 2,300 Canadians will be diagnosed with esophageal cancer in 2017.

In the review of the literature published online, green tea efficacy in the treatment of human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma was expressed in a number of mechanisms.


In esophageal cancer cell lines Eca109 and Ec9706, injection of green tea EGCG plus chemo drug adriamycin (ADM) after 24 hours displayed a significantly increased cellular apoptosis.

According to flow cytometry assay, the application induced the elevation of ROS and ADM concentration in the production of toxicity to counter the reaction of tumor cell in diminished expression of mitochondrial membrane potential and ABCG2 protein to induced apoptosis, without harm to healthy cells.

ABCG2 protein expression plays a major role in multi-drug resistance, produced by tumor cells to accounter reaction to chemo-medicine.
The mitochondrial membrane potential is a central intermediate in oxidative energy metabolism, the deceased levels caused by toxicity ROS may result in energy depletion and subsequently, causing cells death.

Further observation also indicated that EGCG inhibited the growth of Eca109 and Ec9706 cells through ameliorated the anti-apoptotic bcl-2 protein expression and promoted Bax and caspase-3 protein expressions with functions in induced apoptosis in a dose- and time-dependent manner.


BCL2 family members form hetero- or homodimers and play an important anti-apoptotic protein.

Caspase-3 protein plays a central role in the execution phase of cell apoptosis.

BAX gene. BAX is a member of the Bcl-2 gene family. plays an important role in the mediation of cell death by apoptosis.


Compared to ADM treatment alone, the Eca109/ABCG2 multi-drug resistance cancer cells, the rate of apoptosis and ADM concentration were significantly higher levels of mitochondrial membrane potential and ABCG2 expression was lower.

In other words, injection of green tea plus ADM was more effective in induced cells death in Eca109/ABCG2 multi-drug resistance cancer cells with expression ROS and ADM in enhanced elevation cytotoxicity activity in compared to ADM treatment alone.

After taking into account others confounders, Dr, Liu L the lead author said, " EGCG inhibited cell growth and induced esophageal cancer cell apoptosis. It reduced the bcl-2 protein expression and increased the bax and caspase-3 protein expression. EGCG reversed multi-drug resistance by reducing ABCG2 expression and increasing the anticancer drug concentration in cancer cells".




In esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, application of Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) without ADM measured by flow cytometry assay, after 24 hours also inhibited cancer site proliferation by increased expression of ROS to attenuate mitochondrial membrane potential function in energy metabolism and caspase-3 protein to cause malignant cellular apoptosis, in a dose and time-dependent manner.

In the examine the PCR-TRAP argentation analysis during the experiment, EGCG was also demonstrated to inhibit the viability of Eca109 and Ec9706 cells by suppressing cancer cell in alternated DNA transcript through telomerase activity.

More interestingly, the continuation of study of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) on the human esophageal cancer cell line ECa109 also discover that EGCG demonstrated a decrease of cancer cell viability but a substantial rate of apoptosis by increased expression of p16 gene demethylation in induced cancer cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, level p16 mRNA expression in suppressed tumor progression of invasive and aggressive behavior. and p16 protein expression in promoted tumor suppressible activity, in a dose- and time-dependent manner.


P16 gene demethylation plays an important role in cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. gene alternation was found in several types of cancer.
Low level of p16 mRNA expression is associated with the progression of cancer with malignant and aggressive behavior.


Abnormalities of p16 gene and loss of p16 protein expression may be related to the pathogenesis and development of some cancers.


Taken together, green tea with an abundance of phytochemical Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) may be considered as an adjunct therapy to combine with standard chemo-medicine in reduced risk and treatment of esophageal cancer.

Bromelain, Suppresses the Risk and Onset of Colitis

Colitis is a medical condition characterized by the inflammation of the large intestine, including the colon, caecum, and rectum.

Depending on the types of colitis, most common prevalent factors found in patients with such as condition are.
* Familial history of inflammatory bowel disease (odds ratio (OR) 4.3)

* Breastfeeding (OR 2.1)

* Bacille Calmette-Guerin vaccination (OR 3.6 )

* History of eczema (OR 2.1 (1-4.5))

* Disease during pregnancy (OR 8.9 (1.5-52)), and

* Bedroom sharing (OR 7.1 (1.9-27.4))

* Crohn's disease both appendectomy and tonsillectomy have positive associations. Well-established

* Smoking status

* If you are over 50, you are at increased to develop colitis.

And * Depression and psychosocial stress, according to the basis of data from the Nurses' Health Study, increase the risk for CD, but not UC, among women. Psychological factors might have been found to induce CD developing.


Furthermore, patients with medicals condition such as hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and atrial fibrillation are associated with increased risk to develop ischemic colitis(IC), according to the study by Beijing Hospital, Ministry of Health.

Believe it or not, regular drinking of tap water was a protective factor and ulcerative colitis appendicectomy was a protective factor.

Bromelain, a proteolytic enzyme found in pineapples (Ananas comosus) has been used in traditional medicine as an inflammatory agent and to treat pains, strains, and muscle aches and pains and ease back pain and chronic joint pain, skin diseases, etc.

With an aim to find a potential compound for the treatment of colitis, researchers examined the effects of bromelain on the inflammatory response that lead to the onset of colitis.

In epithelial TNFR in rats colitis induced by the intracolonic administration of 2, 4, 6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid, injection of purified fruit bromelain (PFB) significantly decreased the increased expression of TNFR1 and TNFR2.

Where TNF-α receptor (TNFR) is a proinflammatory cytokine activated by the immune response.

Furthermore, typical symptoms associated with colitis such as infiltration of inflammatory cells, cytokine profiles, epithelial cell apoptosis, and epithelial tight junction barrier dysfunction were significantly ameliorated by PFB.


According to the chemical analysis, fruit bromelain showed a superior inhibition of TNFR2 than that exhibited on TNFR1 compared to those of stem bromelain complex.

In other words, PFB expressed its anti-inflammatory activity by blocking the activation of high expression of epithelial TNFRs.

Based on the findings, researchers said, "PFB-induced TNFR inhibition ameliorated colitis symptoms. These results supply novel insights into potential IBD treatment by PFB".

In other to reveal more information of bromelain anti colitis effects, researchers evaluated the long-term dietary supplementation with pineapple (supplied as juice) in decreasing colon inflammation and neoplasia in Il10(-/-) mice with chronic colitis as compared with bromelain derived from the stem.

Colitis triggered in Il10(-/-) mice by exposure to the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug piroxicam for 6 month showed a decreased histologic colon inflammation scores and lower incidence of inflammation-associated colonic neoplasia (35% versus 66%; P < 0.02), with fewer neoplastic lesions/colon (P = 0.05) after receiving treatment of fresh juice.

According to the tested assays, fresh pineapple juice demonstrated proteolytic activity in removing cell surface molecules that can affect leukocyte response.

Dr. Hale LP, the lead scientist wrote in the final report, "long-term dietary supplementation with fresh or unpasteurized frozen pineapple juice with proteolytically active bromelain enzymes is safe and decreases inflammation severity and the incidence and multiplicity of inflammation-associated colonic neoplasia in this commonly used murine model of inflammatory bowel disease".

Taken altogether, bromelain used alone or combined with conventional medicine may be considered a remedy for the prevention and treatment of colitis-associated with inflammatory bowel disease, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.


Intake of bromelain in the form of supplement should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Healthy Food Turmeric Protects the Kidney Against Renal Dysfunction

Renal protection is strategies that protect the kidney against injury or damage. In other words, renal protection is a process that maintains the function of the kidneys.

Kidneys, a pair of the bean-shaped organ in the human body only filters out blood but also balances the body fluids by eliminating them and remove them through urinary secretion.

Depending on the severity of renal damage, patients may experience symptoms of decreased urine output, fluid retention, that lead to swelling in the legs, ankles or feet, fatigue, nausea, and physical weakness

In severe cases, patients may also have symptoms of shortness of breath, confusion, and irregular heartbeat.

The worse cases of kidney damage can lead to renal failure, a condition that induces wastes and toxins accumulated in the blood. In this stage, dialysis and kidney transplant are the only options.

Kidney damage can be classified into 4 different stages
* Stage 1 with normal or high GFR (GFR > 90 mL/min). In this stage of kidney patients are assymptomatic.

* Stage 2 Mild CKD (GFR = 60-89 mL/min), Patients in this stage also experience no symptoms.

*Stage 3A Moderate CKD (GFR = 45-59 mL/min) and 3B moderate CKD (GFR = 30-44 mL/min.
Most patients are assymptomatic. However, some patients may experience symptoms of mild swelling in the hands and feet, back pain and urinating more or less than normal.

* Stage 4 CKD (GFR = 15-30 mL/min). Most patients in this stage experience more severe symptoms of swelling in the hands and feet, back pain and urinating more or less than normal, accompanied by other health problem associated with weakened kidney function

* Stage 5 EndStage CKD (GFR <15 mL/min). Patients at this advanced stage are very close to renal failure or renal failure. Symptoms are getting worse.

Where eGFR is short for estimated glomerular filtration rate.

Turmeric is a perennial plant in the genus Curcuma, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to tropical South Asia.

The herb has been used in traditional medicine as anti-oxidant, hypoglycemic, colorant, antiseptic, wound healing agent, and to treat flatulence, bloating, and appetite loss, ulcers, eczema, inflammations, etc.

In the urgency to find a potential compound with the kidney protective effect against the side effects of Cisplatin, researchers investigated the protective effect and mechanism of tetrahydrocurcumin on cisplatin-induced kidney damage.

The study included selected rats treated by Tetrahydrocurcumin orally every day at a dose of 80 mg/kg body weight for ten days, and a single dose of cisplatin was administered intraperitoneally (7.5 mg/kg body weight) in 0.9 % saline on day four.

According to the tested assays, Cisplatin-induced renal cell damage was significantly reduced by tetrahydrocurcumin treatment.

Tetrahydrocurcumin also suppressed the cisplatin-treated rat in inducing overexpression of the creatinine clearance levels, an indication of kidney dysfunction.

Proinflammatory protein associated with increased oxidative stress in the kidney caused by cancer medicine was also inhibited by tetrahydrocurcumin administration during the experiment.


After taking into account co and confounders, the researcher wrote, "collectively provide therapeutic evidence that tetrahydrocurcumin ameliorates renal damage by regulating inflammation and apoptosis".

In order to reveal more information about turmeric renal protective activity, researchers evaluated the intervening effects of Curcuma aromatica oil on renal interstitial fibrosis rats induced by unilateral ureteral obstruction.


The study included infected rats treated with Curcuma aromatica oil on 3, 7, 14, and 28 days.
According to the Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based metabonomics combined with clinical chemistry and histopathology examination, Curcuma aromatica oil demonstrated strong kidney protection by inhibiting some metabolic pathways associated with the onset of renal interstitial fibrosis, including lipids metabolism, glycolysis, and methylamine metabolism,


Taken altogether, turmeric processed abundantly bioactive compound curcumin may be considered supplements for the protection of kidneys, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Intake of turmeric in the form of supplement should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Green tea, in Reduced Risk and Treatment of Alzheimer's disease

Alzheimer's disease is a neurodegenerative condition of loss or decrease of cognitive and memory functions due to aging.

According to the Maternal and Infant Health, ASL NA 3 SUD, epigallocatechin, and gallic acid, (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate (EGCG), found in green tea exerted a strong anti-inflammatory and anti oxidative properties in protection against neuronal damage and brain edema.

The study also stated that green tea may also contribute to reduced risk and treatment of AD by ameliorated chronic viral infection, one of the cause in responsible for AD's neuropathology.


Dr. Mandel SA. the lead author and expert in green tea study said, "tea drinking may decrease the incidence of dementia, AD, and PD. In particular, its main catechin polyphenol constituent (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) has been shown to exert neuroprotective/neurorescue activities in a wide array of cellular and animal models of neurological disorders".

Other researchers suggested that the efficacy of epigallocatechin and gallic acid, (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate (EGCG) in reduced risk of AD may be attributed to
1. The antioxidant activity in ameliorating production of ROS in the induced risk of oxidative stress which has been found to associate to the production of lipid peroxidation, leading to abnormal deposition of amyloid β (Aβ) peptide

2. Free radical overexpression in aging people also vulnerable to an imbalance of antioxidant and ROS
may have negatively direct interaction with proteins, nucleic acids, and other molecules and may also alter their structures and functions in inducing risk AD.


Indeed, as a single ingredient isolated from green tea, epigallocatechin and gallic acid, (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate (EGCG) have been found to cause toxicity in some cases in the medical literature. Therefore taking the ingredient in long term and overdoses may have an implication of liver damage.


In an animal study to evaluate the efficacy of Caffeic acid in AD, mice rats randomly divided into three groups: i) control group, ii) AD model group and iii) caffeic acid group, mice fed with the phytochemical expressed a significant in increased learning deficit and cognitive function demonstrated by the Morris water maze task in compared control.

Additionally, fed mice also displayed attenuated oxidative stress, inflammation, nuclear factor‑κB‑p65 protein expression involved inflammatory cytokines production and suppressed caspase‑3 activity-induced cell death and other mechanisms in the rats with AD.

Interestingly, the inflammatory process has shown to have a negative role in an increased risk of AD, by causing neuroinflammation, including brain cells such as microglia and astrocytes and subsequently in promoted dysfunction and neuronal death. Therefore by suppressing the production of inflammatory cytokines, caffeic acid expressed a significant reduction of AD risk.


The efficacy in the contribution of cognitive improvement following caffeic acid application may be due to its antioxidant activity and restoration of cholinergic functions, as deficiency of cholinergic function has shown to affect cognition, behavior, and activities of daily living

Taking all together, there is no doubt that green process a neuroprotective against the risk and progression of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) attributed to some of the major chemical constituents. But the intake of a single ingredient isolated from green tea should be taken with care.

Phytochemical Lycopene Inhibits Hyperproliferation In Gastric Epithelial Cells

Hyperproliferation is a progression of highly invasive tumor associated with an abnormally high rate of cancer cells division, leading to rapid overgrowth of the tumor.

Gastric cancer or stomach cancer is a medical condition caused by irregular cell growth of the inner lining tissues of the stomach.

Most cancer of gastric start in the cells on the inner lining of the stomach before penetrating into deeper layers.

At the advanced stage, cancerous gastric cells can also travel a distance away to an alternate DNA of healthy cells, leading a secondary metastasis.


According to the statistics provided by the Canadian Cancer Society, In 2017, approximately 3,500 Canadians were diagnosed with stomach cancer, and gastric cancer also caused the death of 2,100 including 1,300 women and 790 men.

There are major types of gastric cancer
*Adenocarcinoma, accounting to over 90% of gastric cancer diagnosed each year is a type of cancer developed in the innermost lining of the stomach (the mucosa).

* Lymphoma is a type of cancer associated with the immune system found in the wall of the stomach.

Most common symptoms of gastric cancer are heartburn or indigestion, abdominal pain or vague discomfort in the abdomen, usually above the navel and a sense of fullness in the upper abdomen after eating a small meal accompanied by the general symptoms shared by other types of cancer.

In severe cases, if the oversize tumor has pressed on the nearby blood vessel, patients may experience the symptom of vomiting blood.

Out of many prevalent factors involved in the cancer onset, some researchers suggested the promotion of the Western diet may have a strong and negative implication on the cancer occurrence in North America.

Dr. Bertuccio P, the lead scientist wrote, "An unfavorable role on GC emerged for the 'Western/unhealthy' dietary pattern, with an OR of 1.51 (95% CI: 1.21-1.89). This association was weaker for the distal/NOS (not otherwise specified) category (OR = 1.36) compared with the cardia GC (OR = 2.05). Among the a priori scores, the ORs ranged from 0.2 to 0.7 for the favorable and from 1.8 to 6.9 for the unfavorable ones".

And, "There is a ~2-fold difference in GC risk between a 'Prudent/healthy' diet-rich in fruits and vegetables, and a 'Western/unhealthy' diet-rich in starchy foods, meat, and fats".

Lycopene is a phytochemical in the class of carotenoid, a natural pigment with no vitamin A activity found abundantly in tomatoes and other red fruits and vegetables, such as red carrots, watermelons, and papayas,

Tomatoes provide about 80% of the lycopene in the world diet. In plants, lycopene protects the host against excessive photodamage and performs various functions in photosynthesis.

With an aim to find a potential compound for the treatment of invasive gastric cancer, researchers examined the lycopene effect on Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) colonized human stomach in the risk of gastric cancer.

According to the tested differentiation, injection lycopene reduced ROS levels by inhibiting Jak1/Stat3 activation associated with increased levels of proinflammatory cytokines, alteration of Wnt/β-catenin multiprotein signal in induced cells proliferation, and differentiation.


Furthermore, the levels of ROS also are decreased observed by the inhibition of c-Myc, a protein which plays a critical role in cellular growth regulation and cellular metabolism and cyclin E in cell duplication and cell proliferation in H pylori-infected AGS cells, derived from an adenocarcinoma of the stomach.

In other words, lycopene protects the gastric cell by constraining the expression of ROS through several aforementioned mechanisms.

Based on the findings, researchers said, " Lycopene might be a potential and promising nutrient for preventing H pylori-associated gastric diseases including gastric cancer".

Furthermore, according to the results of HGC-27 cells which were treated with varying concentration lycopene for 24, 48, 72,
* Lycopene displayed antiproliferative activity in HGC-27 cell lines.

* Lycopene inhibited HGC-27 by enhancing the protein LC3 which is essential for cancer cell autophagy and p-ERK proteins expression that impaired regeneration of intracellular antioxidants.

Furthermore, in gastric cancer nude mice model, lycopene treatment also significantly decreased tumor weight or tumor proliferation.

Taken altogether, lycopene may be considered supplements for the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer, pending on the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Intake of lycopene in the form of supplement should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Green Tea, A Potent Beverage in Reduced Risk and Treatment of Osteosarcoma

Osteosarcoma is a medical condition of bone cancer characterized by producing immature bone and occurred mostly in children and young adults between the ages of 10 and 30.

According to the study in the investigation of the effects of Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), in reduced risk of osteosarcoma expression in compared to miR-126 in the proliferation, invasion, migration, and chemotherapeutics resistance in cancer, application of Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG)
1. Exerted a significant effect in suppresses proliferation of human cell line osteosarcoma MG63 and U2OS cells in a concentration-dependent and time-dependent manner
2. Inhibited cancer cell line at the concentration of 0.05 g/L on U2OS cells were equivalent to 20 μM cisplatin (DDP)

In compared to green tea extract induced cell death by interfering in cell cycle arrest, miR-126, the chemo suppressor drug-induced apoptosis and inhibited proliferation in U2OS cell line but without significant effects on phase 1 of cancerous cell cycle division.

Further analysis, researchers suggested the application of Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) may increase the effect of tumor-suppressing drug miR-126 and for treatment of osteosarcoma.

In fact, the inhibition of miR-126 osteosarcoma cells without inducing apoptosis and cells proliferation in cell cycle division is attributed to the medicine in the target of sequences in reducing the expression of the targeted genes.

In other words, the medicine can bind directly to inhibit DNA transcription and prevented mRNA in transmitting such transcription in initiated cancer development.

Other researchers suggested that the inhibition of Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) in reduced cancerous cell death does not limit to the function of cell cycle arrest, the phytochemical compound also expressed the apoptotic effect through modulating gene expression of cancer cell line and induced degradation of cancerous cellular structure.

Additional evaluation of the phytochemical Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) and the tumor suppressed drug miR-1 effect in osteosarcoma, researchers also found that Epigallocatechin-3-gallate has a profound and positive effect in improved the efficacy of miR-1 in induced cell apoptosis and proliferation observed in cancer cell lines MG-63 and U-2OS.

More importantly, MG-63 and U-2OS treated by miR-1 and Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) decreased c-MET expression, which is an indication of cancers development.

Furthermore, the combined application of Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) and c-MET inhibitor (crizotinib) also displayed significant inhibition of MG-63 and U-2OS cancer cell proliferation.

More interestingly, in the study of the effects of Se-enriched Ziyang green tea, containing chemical compound mannose, rhamnose and fucose in antitumor activity on human osteosarcoma U-2 OS cells in vitro and in vivo, researchers found that Se-ZYTP at concentration of 25, 50, 100 and 200 μg/ml exerted a significant inhibition of proliferation of human osteosarcoma U-2 OS cells in a concentration-dependent fashion.

In cancer cell line In U-2 OS cancer induced in BALB/c athymic mice model, Se-ZYTP oral administration at three doses of 100, 200 and 400mg/kg body weight (B.W.) daily for 28 days resulted in tumor regression as compared to model control without causing any serious side effects.


Once again, we illustrated that other chemical compounds found in green tea may also have the potential in the suppression of proliferation and induced apoptosis of osteosarcoma.

Indeed, the anti osteosarcoma activities of Se-enriched Ziyang green tea may be attributed to the stimulation in increased pro-apoptotic protein Bax expression(upregulated by the tumor suppressor protein p53 in induced apoptosis) and decreased expression levels of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2(regulator proteins that regulate cell death) and NG2(involved cell survival, migration, and angiogenesis), some researchers suggested.

Taking all together, green tea with plenty of phytochemicals in the suppression of the development and progression of cancer may be considered as an adjunct therapy in reduced risk and combination with chemo drugs for the treatment of osteosarcoma.

Phytochemical Alliin, the Best Anti Metabolic Syndrome Remedy

Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions that increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, including too much fat around the waist, high blood pressure, triglycerides, and blood sugar, and low HDL cholesterol.

In other words, if you process 3 of the aforementioned conditions, you are at a higher risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. However, most people with metabolic syndrome have never developed
CVD and diabetes.

Other than high blood glucose, induced thirst and urination, fatigue, and blurred vision, most patients with other metabolic conditions are asymptomatic.

Epidemiologically, aging, ethnicity, obesity, medical condition such as diabetes, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and polycystic ovary syndrome are most risk factors found in patients with the syndrome.

Some researchers suggested that the promotion of the Western diet in the US over the past few decades may have a strong effect in inducing the widespread metabolic syndrome.

Dr. Drake I, the lead scientist wrote, "The 'Western' dietary pattern was inversely associated with HDL-cholesterol and positively with all other response variables (both at baseline and follow-up), but there was no association with LDL at follow-up".

And, " In conclusion, this study supports current food-based dietary guidelines suggesting that a 'Western' dietary pattern with high intakes of sugar-sweetened beverages and red and processed meats and low intakes of wine, cheese, vegetables, and high-fiber foods is associated with detrimental effects on cardio-metabolic health".


The results clearly suggested that if you are following a traditional diet with high fruits and vegetable and fewer in processed food, saturated and trans fat, and red meat accompanied with moderate exercise daily, you are at substantially decreased risk metabolic syndrome, compared to those who follow the Western diet.

Alliin (S-allyl-L-cysteine-S-oxide) is a phytochemical compound sulfoxide,. a derivative of the amino acid cysteine, belonging to the class of sulfur compounds, found abundantly in fresh garlic and onion.

In the urgency to find a potential compound for the treatment of metabolic syndrome, researchers examined the pure allicin, prepared biosynthetically by reacting synthetic alliin with an immobilized alliinase enzyme in the protection against cardiovascular disease.

S-ally-mercapto captopril (CPSSA), a new stable synthetic compound produced by a chemical reaction between allicin and the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor captopril was tested in a fructose-induced metabolic syndrome rat model.

Allicin (8 mg/(kg day)) used alone significantly reduced insulin, triglycerides, and homocysteine concentrations, and had a slight effect on SBP associated with the risk of metabolic syndrome.

On the other hand, Captopril (50mg/(kg day)) only improved blood pressure and homocysteine.

Treatment with a low dose of CPSSA (5mg/(kg day)) lowered SBP but did not improve any other measured parameter, while treatment with a higher dose Captopril (50mg/(kg day)) significantly decreased blood pressure, triglycerides, and homocysteine concentrations.


In other words, CPSSA exerted a strong anti-metabolic syndrome better than those of individual compound in a dose-dependent manner.

Based on the findings, researchers wrote, " the combined molecule CPSSA integrates the anti-hypertensive, lipid-lowering, and homocysteine-reducing effects of both allicin and captopril, making it a potential cardiovascular protective agent".

Taken altogether, alliin may be considered supplements for the prevention and treatment of metabolic syndrome, depending on the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Intake of alliin in the form of supplement should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.
