Optimization of Heterologous Glucoraphanin Production In Planta [PDF]
Glucoraphanin is a plant specialized metabolite found in cruciferous vegetables that has long been a target for production in a heterologous host because it can subsequently be hydrolyzed to form the chemopreventive compound sulforaphane before and during consumption.

High-level production of health-beneficial glucoraphanin by multiplex editing of AOP2 gene family in mustard. [PDF]
Summary Intake of glucosinolates through the consumption of cruciferous vegetables has been associated with numerous health benefits. In recent decades, glucosinolate glucoraphanin has gained a lot of attention, as its hydrolysis product (sulforaphane) is known to possess numerous health‐promoting benefits, including anti‐cancer and chemopreventive ...

Elucidation of Sulforaphane-Mediated Effects on the Cellular Human Metabolome Using Metabolic Profiling. [PDF]
Sulforaphane (SFN) is an isothiocyanate derived from broccoli and is related to various health‐promoting effects. By using metabolic profiling on the hepatoblastoma cell line HepG2 several effects on pathways such as TCA cycle, urea cycle and redox metabolism through SFN were identified.

Selenium biofortification: integrating one health and sustainability. [PDF]
Abstract Selenium (Se) biofortification in crops has emerged as a promising strategy to address global Se deficiencies and enhance both agricultural productivity and human health. Increasing the Se content of crops through biofortification improves their resilience to abiotic and biotic stresses and boosts their nutritional value.

Production of the Cancer-Preventive Glucoraphanin in Tobacco [PDF]
Epidemiological studies have demonstrated reduced risk of developing cancer upon consumption of diets rich in cruciferous vegetables. This chemoprevention has been largely attributed to the presence of the natural products glucosinolates, particularly the methionine-derived glucoraphanin from broccoli.
