Taste and flavour perceptions of glucosinolates, isothiocyanates, and related compounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Brassicaceae plants are renowned for their taste, aroma and trigeminal characteristics; predominantly bitter taste, sulfurous aroma and pungency. Compounds responsible for these sensations include the glucosinolates (GSLs) and their hydrolysis products ...

Identification and Biological Characterization of a Novel NRF2 Activator Molecule Released From the Membranes of Heat‐Treated Bifidobacterium breve NCC 2950

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 69, Issue 17, September 2025.
We have shed light on the mode of action behind the postbiotic form of Bifidobacterium breve NCC 2950. Heat treatment of this strain at 90°C leads to the production of 4‐oxo‐2‐pentenoic acid (OPA), which activates NRF2 host response, improving oxidative stress resistance and decreasing inflammation. ABSTRACT Postbiotics are defined as a “preparation of

Cruciferous vegetables improve glycaemic control compared to root/squash vegetables in a randomized, controlled, crossover trial: The VEgetableS for vaScular hEaLth (VESSEL) study

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 27, Issue 8, Page 4300-4310, August 2025.
Abstract Aims Higher cruciferous vegetable (e.g., broccoli) intake is associated with lower risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, but limited causal evidence exists. We investigated if cruciferous vegetable intake improved glycaemic control compared to root/squash vegetables in non‐diabetic adults with elevated blood pressure.

Transforming Growth Factor‐β Pathway: Biological Functions and Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 6, Issue 7, July 2025.
Natural compounds modulate the TGF‐β pathway, which acts as both a tumor suppressor and promoter during cancer progression. Agents such as ginsenosides, halofuginone, and EGCG influence cell proliferation, apoptosis, and angiogenesis. These bioactive molecules may complement standard therapies, highlighting the need for advanced formulations ...

Supplementation of the diet by exogenous myrosinase via mustard seeds to increase the bioavailability of sulforaphane in healthy human subjects after the consumption of cooked broccoli [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Broccoli contains the glucosinolate glucoraphanin which, in the presence of myrosinase, can hydrolyse to the isothiocyanate sulforaphane, reported to have anti-carcinogenic activity. However, the myrosinase enzyme is denatured on cooking.
