Background: Immune cells perform unique functions against infections and imbalances in immunity associated with various diseases. Applying natural products may control immune responses. Among herbals, much attention has been paid to the immunoregulatory functions of Allium sativum. However, the effects of other Allium species on the immune system have remained undiscovered. Therefore, the curre...

based on experiments showing immunomodulatory effects of garlic (allium sativum l.), we sought to see whether allium hirtifolim boiss., belonging to the same genus of garlic, has any effect on immune responses. hydroalcoholic extract and polyphenolic fraction of a. hirtifolium bulbs were prepared. allicin (diallyl thiosulfinate), a biologically active component, was identified in plant bulbs by...

Garlic belongs to the Allium genus, which includes more than 750 species divided into 60 taxonomic groups. It is cultivated in many countries throughout world for bulb and used as a spice functional food. The plant vegetatively propagates. This review will focus on origins, biology, analysis of genetic diversity, pharmacological properties garlic. appears from this synthesis that sativum derive...

Allium sativum (garlic) can cause an irritant contact dermatitis, secondary to naturopathic practices. We report an unusually severe case of chemical burn following garlic applied under occlusion.
