Benefits and risks of the hormetic effects of dietary isothiocyanates on cancer prevention [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The isothiocyanate (ITC) sulforaphane (SFN) was shown at low levels (1-5 µM) to promote cell proliferation to 120-143% of the controls in a number of human cell lines, whilst at high levels (10-40 µM) it inhibited such cell proliferation.

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

open access: yesAgronomy, 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.

Effects of selenium biofortification on crop nutritional quality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Selenium (Se) at very low doses has crucial functions in humans and animals. Since plants represent the main dietary source of this element, Se-containing crops may be used as a means to deliver Se to consumers (biofortification). Several strategies have

Direct quantitation of glucoraphanin in dog and rat plasma by LC–MS/MS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis, 2010
A rapid method to quantify levels of the beta-thioglycoside N-hydroxyl sulfate, glucoraphanin, in dog and rat plasma to support pre-clinical toxicological and pharmacological studies has been developed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).

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

open access: yesAgronomy, 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).

KEAP1 and done? Targeting the NRF2 pathway with sulforaphane:Targeting the NRF2 Pathway with Sulforaphane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Since the re-discovery of sulforaphane in 1992 and the recognition of the bioactivity of this phytochemical, many studies have examined its mode of action in cells, animals and humans.

Synthesis and Evaluation of Pseudoglucosinolates Releasing Isothiocyanates in the Presence of Azoreductases. [PDF]

open access: yesChembiochem
An expansion of the concept of pseudoglucosinolates (psGSLs) is reported introducing the first azoreductase‐responsive psGSL‐based probe releasing an isothiocyanate under simultaneous fluorescence turn‐on in the presence of AzoR, an azoreductase from Escherichia coli.

Decontamination of Listeria innocua from fresh-cut broccoli using UV-C applied in water or peroxyacetic acid, and dry-pulsed light [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The efficacy of two irradiation technologies: Ultraviolet-C light (UV-C), applied in water or in diluted peroxyacetic acid, and dry-pulsed light (PL) for the inactivation and growth inhibition of Listeria innocua in fresh-cut broccoli were evaluated ...

Similarity of bioactivity between purified and semipurified glucoraphanin

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2007
The anti‐carcinogenic effects of cruciferous vegetables have been attributed to the hydrolysis products of glucosinolates; the primary glucosinolate in broccoli is glucoraphanin (GP). In this study, the goal was to determine if purified GP, in the absence of the plant‐derived hydrolyzing enzyme myrosinase, could affect pulmonary or hepatic ...

Effect of zinc fertilisation on yield and selected qualitative parameters of broccoli

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2017
Three treatments were used in two-year (2014-2015) field experiments with broccoli cv. Bejo 2914 F1: (1) untreated control; (2) Zn0.75 - Zinkuran SC as foliar fertiliser at the rate of 0.75 L/ha (375 g Zn/ha); (3) Zn1.50 - Zinkuran SC as foliar ...
