Outline of Final Research Achievements |
There are numerous sensitizers in the environment. It is possible that individuals in the environment are at a risk of exposur to sensitizers. To prevent allergic reactions due to sensitizers, we focused on allyl nitrile derived from cruciferous vegetables. This chemical has the ability to induce antioxidant/phase II detoxification enzymes. Repeated low dose exposure to allyl nitrie decreased sensitizer-induced ear edema, suggesting its capability of reducing allergic reactions. But allyl isothiocyanate showed no anti-allergic reactions. Additionally, isothiocyanates other than allyl isothiocyanate from cruciferous vegetables reportedly decrease dermal allergic reactions.
