Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Dacisteine, also known as D-cysteine. protects primary cultures of cerebellar neurons from oxidative stress induced by hydrogen peroxide and attenuates ischaemia-reperfusion injury in the kidney more than L-cysteine. A novel pathway for the production of hydrogen sulfide from D-cysteine in mammalian cells. provides a new therapeutic approach to deliver hydrogen sulphide to specific tissues.

Product Data
Biological target:
Dacisteine (N,S-Diacetyl-L-cysteine) is a cysteine derivative and displays a less New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase-1 (NDM-1) inhibitor with an IC50 value of 1000 μM
In vitro activity:
The aim of the current study was to investigate the effect of D-Cys on the growth and cariogenicity of dual-species biofilms formed by S. mutans and S. sanguinis. Dual-species biofilms biomass, metabolic activity, lactate production were all measured. It was found that D-Cys could reduce the metabolic activity and lactic acid production of dual-species biofilms (p < 0.05). Biofilms in control group displayed a relatively high metabolic activity. Biofilms metabolic activity were significantly decreased with D-Cys treatment, especially in 40 mM and 60 mM groups. 20 mM and 40 mM of D-Cys markedly inhibited acid production. Lactic acid production in these two groups was approximately 1/3 of that in the control group. In addition, biofilms formation, the proportion of S. mutans in dual-species biofilms, and EPS synthesis were decreased with D-Cys treatment. The results suggested that D-Cys could inhibit the growth and cariogenic virulence of dual-species biofilms formed by S. mutans and S. sanguinis, indicating the potential of D-Cys in clinical application for caries prevention and treatment.
