In vivo study | N,N'-Dimethylthiourea (DMTU; 1, 2.5, or 5 mmol/kg; orally) administered at 0.5 h before the onset of WIRS reduces the severity of gastric mucosal lesions with attenuation of the changes in the levels of gastric mucosal MPO, pro-inflammatory cytokines, LPO, NOx, nonprotein SH, and vitamin C and gastric adherent mucus found at 3 h after the onset of WIRS in a dose-dependent manner in Male Wistar rats aged 6 weeks. |

biological activity | N,N'-Dimethylthiourea (DMTU) is isolated from black garlic and is an oral effective hydroxyl radical (• OH) scavenger, which prevents the production of • OH in vitro through activated neutrophils. N,N'-Dimethylthiourea prevents gastric mucosal damage induced by water immersion restriction stress (WIRS) in rats by exerting antioxidant effects, including OH scavenging and anti-inflammatory effects. |
