The natural product allicin is a reactive sulfur species (RSS) from garlic (Allium sativum L.). Neuroblastoma (NB) is an early childhood cancer arising from the developing peripheral nervous system. Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) is a rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of polyamines, which are oncometabolites that contribute to cell proliferation in NB and other c-MYC/MYCN-driven cancers. Both c-MYC and MYCN directly transactivate the E-box gene ODC1, a validated anticancer drug target. We identified allicin as a potent ODC inhibitor in a specific radioactive in vitro assay using purified human ODC. Allicin was ∼23 000-fold more potent (IC50 = 11 nM) than DFMO (IC50 = 252 μM), under identical in vitro assay conditions. ODC is a homodimer with 12 cysteines per monomer, and allicin reversibly S-thioallylates cysteines. In actively proliferating human NB cells allicin inhibited ODC enzyme activity, reduced cellular polyamine levels, inhibited cell proliferation (IC50 9–19 μM), and induced apoptosis. The natural product allicin is a new ODC inhibitor and could be developed for use in conjunction with other anticancer treatments, the latter perhaps at a lower than usual dosage, to achieve drug synergism with good prognosis and reduced adverse effects.

大蒜素是神经母细胞瘤细胞中一种有效的新型鸟氨酸脱羧酶抑制剂。

天然产物大蒜素是来自大蒜 ( Allium sativum L.)的活性硫物质 (RSS )。神经母细胞瘤 (NB) 是一种由发育中的周围神经系统引起的儿童早期癌症。鸟氨酸脱羧酶 (ODC) 是多胺生物合成中的限速酶,多胺是促进 NB 和其他 c-MYC/MYCN 驱动的癌症中细胞增殖的代谢物。c-MYC 和 MYCN 都直接反式激活 E-box 基因ODC1,这是一种经过验证的抗癌药物靶点。我们在使用纯化的人 ODC的特定放射性体外测定中将大蒜素鉴定为有效的 ODC 抑制剂。在相同条件下,大蒜素的效力 (IC 50 = 11 nM) 是 DFMO (IC 50 = 252 μM)的 23 000 倍体外测定条件。ODC 是一种同型二聚体,每个单体有 12 个半胱氨酸,大蒜素可逆地S-硫代烯丙基化半胱氨酸。在积极增殖的人 NB 细胞中,大蒜素抑制 ODC 酶活性,降低细胞多胺水平,抑制细胞增殖 (IC 50 9–19 μM),并诱导细胞凋亡。天然产物大蒜素是一种新的 ODC 抑制剂,可以开发用于与其他抗癌治疗联合使用,后者的剂量可能低于通常的剂量,以实现药物协同作用,预后良好并减少不良反应。
