Comparative Anti-Angiogenesis Study between Allicin Nanoparticle and Normal Allicin from Garlic (Allium Sativum Linn)

Shafeeque K and Hashim KM

The current research article deals with anti–angiogenesis study between allicin nano particle and normal allicin from Garlic (Allium sativum L). Since last year’s Garlic has been used for treating various purposes and its consumption is said to reduce health risk and its organosulfur components effectively block cancer cell growth. Allicin is the major biologically active organo sulfur compound present in garlic. In-vitro anti angiogenesis assay was carried out and significant activity of Nano allicin found for the cancer treatment. Cinnamaldehyde was used as positive control and found that allicin nano particle process more antiangiogenesis activity than the normal allicin.
