Usage

Description

Anise trisulfide, also known as bile vita, is a secretory choleretic drug, which can significantly enhance liver glutathione levels, significantly enhance glutamyl cysteine synthase, glutathione reductase and glutathione sulfur Transferase activity, reduce glutathione peroxidase activity, enhance liver cell viability, and increase bile secretion. Without increasing the burden on the liver, it can reduce liver portal pressure, eliminate liver congestion and other symptoms of hepatitis lesions, promote liver cell activation, and contribute to the improvement and recovery of liver function.

Originator

Sialor,Paladin Labs

Manufacturing Process

1 mol anethol (1-methoxy-4-propenyl-benzene) and 3 mol sulfur were heated in an open vessel to temperature 190°-200°C. H2S was removed at this temperature. On cooling the reaction mixture was getting solid. The solid product was recrystallizated from acetone or ethanol to give the orange-red needles of 5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3H-1,2-dithiole-3-thione; MP 108.5°C.

Therapeutic Function

Salivation stimulant, Choleretic, Neuroprotective

Safety Profile

Poison by intramuscular route.Moderately toxic by ingestion and intraperitoneal routes.Experimental reproductive effects. When heated todecomposition it emits toxic fumes of SOx.

Gallic acid hydrogen sulfide derivative and preparation method and medical application thereof

The invention discloses a gallic acid hydrogen sulfide derivative and a preparation method and medical application thereof. The general formula of the gallic acid hydrogen sulfide derivative is A-Y-X,and A is gallic acid; Y is -C (O) O-, -C (O) NH-, -C (O) OC (O)-, -C (O) NHCH2 C (O)- or is absent, and when Y is absent, the compound is A-X; X is a moiety capable of releasing hydrogen sulfide alone or in combination with A. Compared with gallic acid and existing classic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, the gallic acid hydrogen sulfide derivative has the advantages that the anti-inflammatory activity is equivalent or enhanced, the side effects of gastrointestinal tracts and cardiovascular diseases are weakened, and the gallic acid hydrogen sulfide derivative has high anti-tumor activity and good cardiovascular and neuroprotective effects.

Synthesis of Dithiolethiones and Identification of Potential Neuroprotective Agents via Activation of Nrf2-Driven Antioxidant Enzymes

Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of a wide variety of neurodegenerative disorders, and accordingly, dietary supplement of exogenous antioxidants or/and upregulation of the endogenous antioxidant defense system are promising for therapeutic intervention or chemoprevention of neurodegenerative diseases. Nrf2, a master regulator of the cellular antioxidant machinery, cardinally participates in the transcription of cytoprotective genes against oxidative/electrophilic stresses. Herein, we report the synthesis of 59 structurally diverse dithiolethiones and evaluation of their neuroprotection against 6-hydroxydopamine-or H2O2-induced oxidative damages in PC12 cells, a neuron-like rat pheochromocytoma cell line. Initial screening identified compounds 10 and 11 having low cytotoxicity but conferring remarkable protection on PC12 cells from oxidative-mediated damages. Further studies demonstrated that both compounds upregulated a battery of antioxidant genes as well as corresponding genes' products. Significantly, silence of Nrf2 expression abolishes cytoprotection of 10 and 11, indicating targeting Nrf2 activation is pivotal for their cellular functions. Taken together, the two lead compounds discovered here with potent neuroprotective functions against oxidative stress via Nrf2 activation merit further development as therapeutic or chemopreventive candidates for neurodegenerative disorders.
