1,2,6‐Thiadiazin‐4‐ones: Robust Photocatalysts for the Green Aerobic Oxidation of Sulfides to Sulfoxides

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
A new photocatalyst for the aerobic photochemical oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides is described under really low catalyst loading (0.01 mol%) and methanol as the green solvent. The chemoselective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides is accomplished using a new family of photocatalysts, namely 1,2,6‐thiadiazin‐4‐ones. Utilizing a low catalyst loading (

Overexpression of the MYB29 transcription factor affects aliphatic glucosinolate synthesis in Brassica oleracea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Isothiocyanates, the bio-active hydrolysis products of glucosinolates, naturally produced by several Brassicaceae species, play an important role in human health and agriculture.

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

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
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

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.

Restoration of Immune Surveillance in Prostate Cancer Prevention by Sulforaphane in Hi‐Myc Mice

open access: yesMolecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oral administration of broccoli constituent sulforaphane (SFN) prevents prostate cancer development in preclinical mouse models. However, the mechanism(s) underlying prostate cancer prevention by SFN are not fully understood. In this study, we used a human relevant mouse model (Hi‐Myc mice) to demonstrate restoration of immune surveillance by ...

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 ...

Transport engineering as a strategy to realize rapeseed's potential as a protein‐rich food

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The heavily pesticide‐dependent rapeseed is an under‐utilized protein source for food owing to anti‐nutritional glucosinolates. Transport engineering technology may reduce glucosinolates in seeds while increasing defense in vegetative parts. Abstract Rapeseed is the world's second‐largest oilseed crop, and the low‐value press cake that remains after ...

Essential Role of Keap1-Nrf2 Signaling in Mood Disorders: Overview and Future Perspective

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
Depression is one of the most common mood disorders with a high rate of relapse. Accumulating evidence suggests that the transcription factor Kelch-like erythroid cell-derived protein with CNC homology (ECH)-associated protein 1 (Keap1)-Nuclear factor ...

Nutrigenomics: Using Sulforaphane Consumption as a Mechanism to Prevent Cardiovascular Disease through Epigenetic Regulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. Diet composition and reduced expression of the transcription factor Nrf2 are both possible factors contributing to cardiovascular disease.
