Sulforaphanes: disruptors of phagophores and autolysosomes
Sulforaphane and its metabolites (SFNs) cause apoptosis in cancers and could be potential anti-cancer drugs. We focused on investigating the underlying mechanisms through which SFNs inhibit cancers. First, SFNs cause microtubule disruption by phosphorylated MAPK1/ERK2-MAPK3/ERK1-mediated activation of 26S proteasome leading to a microtubule-associated ...

Photothrombosis-induced infarction of the mouse cerebral cortex is not affected by the Nrf2-activator sulforaphane. [PDF]
Sulforaphane-induced activation of the transcription factor NF-E2 related factor 2 (Nrf2 or the gene Nfe2l2) and subsequent induction of the phase II antioxidant system has previously been shown to exert neuroprotective action in a transient model of ...

Background/Purpose: Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are deemed as the driving force of tumorigenesis in oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCCs). In this study, we investigated the chemotherapeutic effect of sulforaphane, a dietary component from broccoli sprouts,

Chemopreventive activity of sulforaphane
Cancer is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality in the world. Carcinogenesis is a multistep process induced by genetic and epigenetic changes that disrupt pathways controlling cell proliferation, apoptosis, differentiation, and senescence.

Comparison of Pharmacokinetics and Anti-Pulmonary Fibrosis-Related Effects of Sulforaphane and Sulforaphane N-acetylcysteine [PDF]
Sulforaphane (SFN), belonging to the isothiocyanate family, has received attention owing to its beneficial activities, including chemopreventive and antifibrotic effects. As sulforaphane N-acetylcysteine (SFN-NAC), a major sulforaphane metabolite, has presented similar pharmacological activities to those of SFN, it is crucial to simultaneously analyze ...

Stability of sulforaphane for topical formulation [PDF]
Sulforaphane (SFN) is a natural compound that has been investigated as a chemopreventive agent. SFN has been shown to inhibit the activator-protein-1 (AP-1) transcription factor and may be effective for inhibition of ultraviolet (UV) induced skin carcinogenesis.

Sulforaphane (SFN) is an isothiocyanate (ITC) which exists as a precursor of glucosinolate (GS) in various cruciferous vegetables especially in broccoli. Sulforaphane has been regarded as a potential of anti-cancer agent derived from diet, mostly because

The neuroprotective mechanisms and effects of sulforaphane [PDF]
Sulforaphane (SFN) is a phytochemical found in cruciferous vegetables. It has been shown to have many protective effects against many diseases, including multiple types of cancer. SFN is a potent activator of the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) antioxidant response element (ARE) genetic pathway. Upregulation of Nrf2-ARE increases the
