%X Diallyl disulfide (DADS) is a natural organosulfur compound derived from crushed garlic, it has been reported that the antiproliferative activity of DADS in several cancer cell lines. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the DADS-antitumor effect is not yet clearly understood. In the present study, the CCK-8 was used by assay the inhibition of DADS on the cells viability, the DADS-induced apoptosis in human Raji cells were investigated using both morphological analysis and DNA fragmentation technique. In this study, demonstrated that DADS-induced apoptosis in human Raji cells is a concentration- and time-dependent manner. This DADS-induced apoptosis in human Raji cells was also accompanied by the down-regulation of Bcl-2 and MCL-1 and activation of Bid, but no effect on the levels of Bax and Bak. Moreover, the DADS treatment resulted in increase in the release of mitochondrial cytochrome c (cyt c), and activation of caspase 3. Furthermore, treatment with caspase inhibitor (z-DEVD-fmk) was capable of preventing the DADS-induced caspase 3 activity and cell death. These results clearly demonstrate that the induction of apoptosis by DADS involves be mediated, at least in part, by the Bcl-2/MCL1-mitochondria-Caspase3 pathway in human Raji cells.
