Glucosinolates and related compounds
Food Chemistry, 1981Abstract The characteristic flavour of cruciferous foods and the spicy character of some other plants are connected, though not necessarily synonymous, with their glucosinolates content. The understanding of the biological role of the glucosinolates has only just begun.

Glucosinolate research in the Arabidopsis era
Trends in Plant Science, 2002The wide range of biological activities of products derived from the glucosinolate-myrosinase system is biologically and economically important. On the one hand, the degradation products of glucosinolates play an important role in the defence of plants against herbivores. On the other hand, these compounds have toxic (e.g.

Glucosinolates and isothiocyanates in health and disease
Trends in Molecular Medicine, 2012Glucosinolates and isothiocyanates have both been objects of research for more than half a century. Interest in these unique phytochemicals escalated following the discovery that sulforaphane, an isothiocyanate from broccoli, potently induces mammalian cytoprotective proteins through the Keap1-Nrf2-ARE pathway.

Glucosinolates and their breakdown products in food and food plants.
Critical reviews in food science and nutrition, 1983This review surveys the occurrence, analysis, and properties of glucosinolates and derived compounds in plants and products intended for humans and animal consumption. The paper, which includes references published in 1981, is also intended to compliment

Most known biological roles of the glucosinolate–myrosinase system depend on its functioning as a ‘chemical bomb’. This term describes chemical defences which are based on the accumulation of inert components in separate compartments and rapid release of large amounts of defensive chemicals through mixing of these components and their reaction with ...

General Introduction to Glucosinolates
2016Abstract As the major specialized metabolites of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, glucosinolates have become model specialized metabolites with all the advantages this brings to glucosinolate research, e.g. in the form of extensive 'omics tools, natural variation and mutant collections.

Glucosinolates: Biosynthesis and Metabolism
2003Glucosinolates are amino acid derived secondary metabolites of the Capparales order, which include the Brassica crops and the model plant Arabidopsis. Tissue disruption brings glucosinolates into contact with myrosinases, thereby producing numerous biologically active compounds (e.g. isothiocyanates, nitriles, and thiocyanates).

Glucosinolates – The Agricultural Story
2016Abstract Glucosinolates are the only plant biochemicals which caused unforgettable turmoil in agricultural science and practical farming. In the middle of the 1980s, new oilseed rape varieties with reduced seed glucosinolate content were bred and released in Northern Europe.
