Regulation of glucosinolate biosynthesis
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2020 AbstractGlucosinolates are secondary defense metabolites produced by plants of the order Brassicales, which includes the model species Arabidopsis and many crop species. In the past 13 years, the regulation of glucosinolate synthesis in plants has been intensively studied, with recent research revealing complex molecular mechanisms that connect ...

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

Phytochemical Analysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Primary brain tumors are life‐threatening diseases. Glioblastoma is the most aggressive type with a poor prognosis. Medulloblastoma is the most common pediatric brain tumor. While surgical treatments often result in recurrences owing to the complex nature of the tumor microenvironment, conventional treatments lower the quality of life of ...

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