Effects of organosulfur compounds from garlic oil on the antioxidation system in rat liver and red blood cells

The modulation of garlic oil (GO) and three allyl compounds, diallyl sulfide (DAS), diallyl disulfide (DADS) and diallyl trisulfide (DATS), on the antioxidation system in rat livers and red blood cells was examined. Rats were orally administered GO (200 mg/kg body weight), DAS (20, 80 mg/kg body wei...

Zusammenfassung:The modulation of garlic oil (GO) and three allyl compounds, diallyl sulfide (DAS), diallyl disulfide (DADS) and diallyl trisulfide (DATS), on the antioxidation system in rat livers and red blood cells was examined. Rats were orally administered GO (200 mg/kg body weight), DAS (20, 80 mg/kg body weight), DADS (80 mg/kg body weight) or DATS (70 mg/kg body weight) three times a week for 6 weeks. Control rats received corn oil (2 ml/kg body weight) alone. GO, DADS and DATS treatment significantly increased the glutathione (GSH) content (48–84%) in red blood cells ( P
