Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effect of food factor on Alzheimer's disease. We found that diallyl trisulfide (DATS) derived from garlic is hydrogen sulfide donor compound. Amyloid β induced neuronal cell death in primary neuronal cell cultures and neuronal cell line PC12. DATS and other hydrogen sulfide donor compounds had little effects on neuronal cell death induced by amyloid β. We revealed that DATS has anti-inflammatory activity.
