(E)-Ajoene
Based on 1 Customer Validation
(E)-Ajoene is an organosulfur compound and a neuroprotective agent with oral activity. (E)-Ajoene attenuates ischemia/reperfusion-induced hyperactivity, neuronal death in the hippocampal CA1 region, reactive astrogliosis, and reactive microgliosis. (E)-Ajoene is the E isomer of Ajoene (HY-106784) found in oil-macerated garlic products. (E)-Ajoene can be used for research on transient forebrain ischemia.

Result:Increased locomotor activity by 2.4-fold compared to pre-ischemia levels 1 day after ischemia/reperfusion.
Preserved 18.7% of cresyl violet-positive neurons in the stratum pyramidale of the hippocampal CA1 region relative to the sham control group 5 days after ischemia/reperfusion.
Showed slightly lower GFAP immunoreactivity in CA1 region astrocytes compared to vehicle-treated animals.
Exhibited lower Iba-1 immunoreactivity in activated microglia aggregated in the stratum pyramidale compared to the vehicle-treated group.
