Beneficial Effect of H2S-Releasing Molecules in an In Vitro Model of Sarcopenia: Relevance of Glucoraphanin

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
Sarcopenia is a gradual and generalized skeletal muscle (SKM) syndrome, characterized by the impairment of muscle components and functionality. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), endogenously formed within the body from the activity of cystathionine-γ-lyase (CSE ...

044 Selection for Floret Glucoraphanin Concentration Among Inbred Broccoli [PDF]

HortScience, 1999
Broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. Italica Group) is a rich source of the aliphatic glucosinolate glucoraphanin. The glucoraphanin breakdown product, sulforaphane, has been shown to induce Phase II detoxication enzymes (e.g., Quinone Reductase) and has attracted attention as a potential chemoprotector against cancer. The objectives of this research were to

Light intensity and sulfur deficiency modulate growth and water dynamics in broccoli plants via aquaporin regulation. [PDF]

Plant Biol (Stuttg)
Combined light stress and sulfur deficiency intensify broccoli adaptive responses, triggering distinct aquaporin expression patterns and highlighting a key compensatory mechanism for maintaining water homeostasis. Abstract Sulfur plays a critical role in plant secondary metabolism, particularly in the biosynthesis of glucosinolates, where it functions ...

Similarity of bioactivity between purified and semipurified glucoraphanin

The 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 ...

Variation of glucoraphanin and glucobrassicin: anticancer components in Brassica during processing [PDF]

Food Science and Technology (Campinas), 2013
Effects of cold storage and three common cooking practices, blanching, sauteing, and microwave cooking at different time intervals, on the content of glucosinolate (GSL) anticancer components in six Brassica vegetables were investigated. Eleven GSLs including progoitrin, glucoraphanin, sinigrin, glucoalyssin, gluconapin, glucobrassicanapin, glucoerucin,

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.

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

, 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.

Glucoraphanin and sulforaphane biosynthesis by melatonin mediating nitric oxide in hairy roots of broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica Planch): insights from transcriptome data

BMC Plant Biology, 2022
Glucoraphanin (GRA) is present in the seeds and nutrient organs of broccoli and is the precursor of the anti-cancer compound sulforaphane (SF). The hairy roots obtained by infecting broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var.

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.

Effects of selenium biofortification on crop nutritional quality [PDF]

, 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
