Protective effects of allicin on 1,3-DCP-induced lipid metabolism disorder in HepG2 cells.
Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy 2017 December
Allicin (2-propene-1-sulfinothioic acid S-2-propenyl ester), with quite a good range of hepatoprotective and antineoplastic properties, is a functional substance from garlic (Allium sativum L.) The purpose of this study was to provide evidence that allicin could protect 1,3-DCP-induced lipid metabolism disorder in HepG2 cells. Allicin reduced the accumulation of triglycerides (TG) and total cholesterol (TC) in 1,3-DCP-induced HepG2 cells. Allicin significantly increased the phosphorylation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and down-regulated the levels of sterol regulatory element binding protein-1 (SREBP-1) and sterol regulatory element binding protein-2 (SREBP-2) in 1,3-DCP-induced HepG2 cells. Additionally, allicin had obvious recovery influence on the phosphorylation level of PKA and CREB in 1,3-DCP-induced HepG2 cells. These observations indicated that allicin alleviated lipid metabolism disorder induced by 1,3-DCP in HepG2 cells by regulating AMPK-SREBPs and PKA-CREB signaling pathways.
