Benzyl isothiocyanate: maximising production in papaya tissue extracts

open access: yes, 2015
Although mainly grown for its sweet flavoured fruit, papaya (Carica papaya) has also been used for pharmacological purposes for many years. The reasons for use are varied with one of the best known being its anti-fungal action.

Formation and Degradation Kinetics of the Biofumigant Benzyl Isothiocyanate in Soil

open access: yes, 2016
Glucosinolates (GSLs) are produced by plants of the Capparales order. Upon enzymatic hydrolysis the GSLs can be transformed to the toxic isothiocyanates (ITCs), which can be used as biofumigants for the control of soil-borne pests.

Modulation of Carcinogen Metabolism by Benzyl Isothiocyanate.

open access: yes, 2020
Precision-cut rat liver slices were incubated with various concentrations of benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) (0-25 uM) for 24 hours. BITC decreased the dealkylation of ethoxy-(EROD) and methoxyresorufin (MROD) but increased CYP1A1/2 apoprotein levels; in ...

Biosynthesis of the High-Value Plant Secondary Product Benzyl Isothiocyanate via Functional Expression of Multiple Heterologous Enzymes in Escherichia coli

open access: yes, 2016
Plants produce a wide variety of secondary metabolites that are highly nutraceutically and pharmaceutically important. Isothiocyanates, which are found abundantly in cruciferous vegetables, are believed to reduce the risk of several types of cancers and ...

Phenethyl isothiocyanate induces Ca2+ movement and cytotoxicity in PC3 human

open access: yes, 2011
The effect of phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC), a cruciferous vegetable-derived compound, on cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) in prostate cells has not been explored.

Isothiocyanates: An Overview of Their Antimicrobial Activity against Human Infections

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
The use of plant-derived products as antimicrobial agents has been investigated in depth. Isothiocyanates (ITCs) are bioactive products resulting from enzymatic hydrolysis of glucosinolates (GLs), the most abundant secondary metabolites in the botanical ...

Anti-Carcinogenic Glucosinolates in Cruciferous Vegetables and Their Antagonistic Effects on Prevention of Cancers

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Glucosinolates (GSL) are naturally occurring β-d-thioglucosides found across the cruciferous vegetables. Core structure formation and side-chain modifications lead to the synthesis of more than 200 types of GSLs in Brassicaceae.
