S-1-丙烯基-L-半胱氨酸(S-1-propenyl-L-cysteine, S1PC)是一种天然存在于葱属植物中的含硫氨基酸, 最早于20世纪60年代在大蒜制剂中被发现, 也是老化大蒜提取物(Aged garlic extract, AGE)中的重要组分, 在其发挥药理作用过程中扮演重要角色. 自2016年起, 已发现S1PC具有多种生物活性, 包括抗高血压、抗炎和调节免疫特性. 相较于完整大蒜, S1PC不仅气味更淡、毒性更低, 还能规避消化不良、口臭等不良反应, 对于期望获取大蒜健康益处的人群而言, 是一种更具吸引力的选择. S1PC已被发现在高血压动物模型中有降低血压的作用, 并且在体内、体外均有免疫调节作用. 此外, S1PC具有抗炎作用, 该特性有助于预防或管理与慢性炎症相关的疾病, 如牙龈炎和动脉粥样硬化. 基于上述发现, S1PC被认为与其同分异构体S-烯丙基-L-半胱氨酸(S-allyl-L-cysteine, SAC)一样, 是AGE中另一种重要的、具有药理活性且安全的成分. 综述了S1PC的理化性质等方面最新研究进展, 并提出了其未来潜在的应用发展方向.

S-1-Propenyl-L-cysteine (S1PC), a sulfur-containing amino acid naturally present in Allium sativum and first iden- tified in garlic preparations in the 1960s, plays an important role in aged garlic extract (AGE) and a key pharmacological role. Since 2016, it has been found to possess a variety of biological activities, including anti-hypertensive, anti-inflammatory and immunomo- dulatory properties. S1PC has less odour and is less toxic than whole garlic, making it a more attractive option for those looking to reap the health benefits of garlic without the adverse side effects of indigestion and bad breath. S1PC has been found to have blood pressure lowering effects in animal models of hypertension and has immunomodulatory effects both in vivo and in vitro. In addition, S1PC has anti-inflammatory effects, which may help prevent or manage diseases associated with chronic inflammation, such as gingivitis and atherosclerosis. Based on the above findings, S1PC is considered to be another important, pharmacologically active and safe component of AGE, along with its isomer S-allyl-L-cysteine (SAC). In this review, the latest research progress on the physicochemical properties and other aspects of S1PC is summarized, and the possible directions of its application development in the future are also proposed.
