Methylsulfonylmethane or Dimethyl sulfone or MSM is an organic compound sulphur-containing that belongs to a class of chemical components called sulfones and is used as a dietary supplement to improve the signs of aging.
It's a metabolite found in human cerebrospinal fluid and blood plasma. It comes from food sources such as fruits, vegetables, cereals, milk, the metabolism of human endogenous methanetiol and intestinal bacterial metabolism (1).
This study has shown that methylsulfonylmethane is effective in reducing visual signs of skin aging even at low doses of 1 g/d. (2).
It is a potential drug for the inhibition of cortisol (cortisol is a hormone involved in stress during exercise) in the skeletal muscle cells of racehorses (3).
Methylsulfonylmethane could promote differentiation and osteogenic potential of stem cells from exfoliated deciduous human dental cells. This osteogenic property is most evident in the presence of mineralized bone particles (4).
MSM in a low dose (200 mM) is able to reduce the migration and invasion of prostate cancer cells (5).
