Early life exposure to broccoli sprouts confers stronger protection against enterocolitis development in an immunological mouse model of inflammatory bowel disease

mSystems, 2023
Crohn’s disease (CD) is a presentation of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that manifests in childhood and adolescence and involves chronic and severe enterocolitis, immune and gut microbial dysregulation, and other complications. Diet and gut-microbiota-

Virtual Prediction of The Effect Phenolic And Glucosinolate Compounds In Broccoli (Brassica Oleracea) On Anti-aging As Stimulant Nrf-2

Journal of Experimental Life Science, 2020
Aging is caused by an imbalance between antioxidants and ROS. Nuclear Factor Erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a transcription factor that regulates antioxidant genes. Under normal conditions, Nrf2 will bind keap1 and cause degradation of Nrf2. Nrf2

Quantification and Diversity Analyses of Glucosinolates in 191 Broccoli Genotypes Highlight Valuable Genetic Resources for Molecular Breeding

Agronomy, 2023
Glucosinolates (GSLs), crucial secondary metabolites in cruciferous vegetables, hydrolyze upon consumption or mechanical damage, forming bioactive compounds with anti-cancer properties, such as glucoraphanin (GRA).

Sulforaphane as a potential modifier of calorie-induced inflammation: a double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover trial

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2023
Background and aimsObservational data indicate that diets rich in fruits and vegetables have a positive effect on inflammatory status, improve metabolic resilience and may protect against the development of non-communicable diseases.

Impact of spring rape varieties on protein extraction from press cake, emulsifying properties and antinutrient content. [PDF]

J Sci Food Agric
Abstract BACKGROUND Rapeseed is the second most cultivated oilseed globally after soybean and a protein‐rich press cake is generated after liberation of the oil. However, its use in food applications is limited by high levels of anti‐nutrients such as glucosinolates and phytic acid. Although differences between botanical varieties are known, controlled

Contrary to Red, Blue Monochromatic Light Improves the Bioactive Compound Content in Broccoli Sprouts

Agronomy, 2021
Broccoli sprouts are rich in health-promoting bioactive compounds. Their content depends on both cultivation light quality and temperature. However, these effects have been previously addressed in isolation.

Molecular Cloning, Expression Pattern and Genotypic Effects on Glucoraphanin Biosynthetic Related Genes in Chinese Kale (Brassica oleracea var. alboglabra Bailey)

Molecules, 2015
Glucoraphanin is a plant secondary metabolite that is involved in plant defense and imparts health-promoting properties to cruciferous vegetables. In this study, three genes involved in glucoraphanin metabolism, branched-chain aminotransferase 4 (BCAT4),

Glucoraphanin: a broccoli sprout extract that ameliorates obesity-induced inflammation and insulin resistance [PDF]

Adipocyte, 2018
Obesity is a low-grade sustained inflammatory state that causes oxidative stress in different metabolic tissues, which leads to insulin resistance and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Particularly, obesity-induced metabolic endotoxemia plays an important role in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance and inflammation.

Characterisation of the Introgression of Brassica villosa Genome Into Broccoli to Enhance Methionine-Derived Glucosinolates and Associated Health Benefits

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Broccoli cultivars that have enhanced accumulation of methionine-derived glucosinolates have been developed through the introgression of a novel allele of the MYB28 transcription factor from the wild species Brassica villosa.

Glucoraphanin Level in Broccoli Seed is Largely Determined by Genotype [PDF]

HortScience, 2005
Broccoli ( Brassica oleracea L., Italica Group) seed and resulting sprouts can contain high levels of glucoraphanin, a glucosinolate, which can be converted to sulforaphane, a compound with cancer protective and antioxidant properties. This observation has stimulated interest in broccoli seed
