WP 6 CANCER Marie-Hélène SIESS et al. Participants : P12 : UMR de Toxicologie Alimentaire, INRA, Dijon P5 : IRBI, University F.Rabelais, Tours P13 : University of Muenchen, Department of Pharmacy, Center of Drug Research, Muenchen
Cancer is preventable by plant food (eating fruits and vegetables The project is focused on the mechanisms of action of garlic on critical cellular and molecular events in the process of carcinogenesis RATIONALE Cancer is one of the first causes of death and morbidity within EU
ORIGINAL OBJECTIVES to investigate the role of garlic and its sulfur compounds on the process of carcinogenesis through cellular, animal and clinical studies in vivo studies (rat) with garlic powders in vitro studies (cells) with isolated sulfur compounds to clarify the metabolism of sulfur compounds of garlic which could be effective on carcinogenesis
Bioavailability and metabolism of sulfur compounds from garlic
APPROACHES In vivo : administration of pure DADS or garlic in rats and measurements of the concentrations of metabolites in several tissues Ex vivo : perfusion of a rat liver by pure DADS and identification of metabolites specifically formed in the liver In vitro : metabolism of DADS by rat and human subcellular fractions to validate the hypothetical pathways
Allylglutathione sulfide S glutathione Allylmercaptan Allylmethylsulfide Allylmethylsulfoxide Allylmethylsulfone SH Proposed scheme for the metabolism of DADS in the rat Metabolites detected in vitro Metabolites detected in vivo
CONCLUSION The metabolism of DADS is partly elucidated in rat and man • DADS is rapidly absorbed and extensively metabolized. • AMSO and AMSO2 are probably excretion compounds • Similar metabolites profiles are observed after garlic administration
Role of garlic on the process of carcinogenesis : In vivo studies with rat
OBJECTIVES To assess the anticarcinogenic effect of garlic consumption on the appearence of liver preneoplasic foci initiated by chemical carcinogens To elucidate the mechanisms of the anticarcinogenic action To determine if the anticarcinogenic effect is correlated with the level of sulfur compounds in garlic

CONCLUSION Garlic powder ingestion reduced preneoplasic foci induced by AFB1. Mechanisms of action : induction of CYP 1A and/or GST and UGT no effect on CYP 2B and 3A A significant correlation was found between allin content and the anticarcinogenic efficacy No protection against the carcinogenicity induced by DEN even if there is an inhibition of the genotoxicity of nitrosamine Mechanisms of action unknown
The studied molecules were : DADS (diallyl disulfide) DADSO (allicin) SAC (S-allyl cysteine) AM (allyl mercaptan) Range : 5 to 100 µM DNA alterations were measured using the comet test. Genotoxic compound Broken DNA = comet Undamaged DNA OBJECTIVES To assess if garlic compounds prevent DNA alterations induced by mutagenic compounds in a human cell line, HepG2 cells.
Pre-treatment studies : cells are treated firstwith the garlic compound and then with the pro-mutagen Garlic compound Pro-mutagen Hypothesis : inhibition or induction of xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes Mutagens : benzopyrene (BaP) aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) CYP 1A CYP 1A, 3A CYP 2E1 Co-treatment studies : cells are treated with both the garlic compound and the direct-acting mutagen at the same time Garlic compound +mutagen Hypothesis : scavenging of mutagenic compounds Mutagens : hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) methyl methane sulfonate (MMS) 4-nitrosoquinoline oxide (4-NQO) PROTOCOLS

CONCLUSIONS Sulfur compounds from garlic prevent the genotoxicity of carcinogens in a human cell line They act through different mechanisms of action : modulation of enzymes involved in activation or detoxication scavenging of ultimate species
WP6 : GENERAL CONCLUSION The metabolism of sulfur compounds such diallyl disulfide is partly elucidated in rat and man. New metabolites and pathways are identified in the rat. Garlic consumption prevents the initiation step of chemical hepatocarcinogenesis in the rat. Some mechanism of action are elucidated. The efficacy is correlated with the S-content of garlic In human cells, garlic sulfur compounds inhibit the genotoxicity induced by different chemicals.
Expected impacts of the WP 6 outputs To contribute to improve the knowledge for the prevention of cancer (scientific community) To contribute to policy design on the prevention of cancer (health public agencies) To contribute to fully optimize the health effects of garlic (breeders, farmers, agrofood industries)
