Allyl isothiocyanate induced stress response in
BMC Research Notes, 2011 Background Allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) from mustard is cytotoxic; however the mechanism of its toxicity is unknown. We examined the effects of AITC on heat shock protein (HSP) 70 expression in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Sinigrin and Its Therapeutic Benefits
Molecules, 2016 Sinigrin (allyl-glucosinolate or 2-propenyl-glucosinolate) is a natural aliphatic glucosinolate present in plants of the Brassicaceae family, such as broccoli and brussels sprouts, and the seeds of Brassica nigra (mustard seeds) which contain high ...

Environmental stress affects the glucosinolate-myrosinase system in brassica species [PDF]
, 2003 Glucosinolates are secondary metabolites present in the order Capparales which includes the economically important Brassicaceae family. Although glucosinolates are generally not bioactive, enzymatic hydrolysis by myrosinase produces breakdown products ...
