Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic, nonspecific intestinal inflammatory disease. Immune imbalance and intestinal mucosal barrier damage are important factors in the development and persistence of UC. In recent years, authors both domestic and abroad found that allicin could alleviate the intestinal mucosal inflammation of UC. This article reviewed the research progress on allicin in treatment of UC.
