Exploring the anti‐inflammatory activity of sulforaphane
AbstractDysregulation of innate immune responses can result in chronic inflammatory conditions. Glucocorticoids, the current frontline therapy, are effective immunosuppressive drugs but come with a trade‐off of cumulative and serious side effects. Therefore, alternative drug options with improved safety profiles are urgently needed.

Stimulation of Suicidal Erythrocyte Death by Sulforaphane [PDF]
AbstractSulforaphane, an isothiocyanate from cruciferous vegetable, counteracts malignancy. The effect is at least in part due to the stimulation of suicidal death or apoptosis of tumour cells. Mechanisms invoked in sulforaphane‐induced apoptosis include mitochondrial depolarization and altered gene expression.

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

Sulforaphane in experimental hypertension
Abstract Background: Hypertension is defined as a failure to achieve a blood pressure (BP) target – smaller than 140/90 mmHg. The worldwide burden of hypertension has been associated with globally increased rates of death and disability. There is increasing evidence of strong relation between hypertension and oxidative stress, where either ...

Interaction of Sulforaphane with DNA and RNA
Sulforaphane (SFN) is an isothiocyanate found in cruciferous vegetables with anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and anti-cancer activities. However, the antioxidant and anticancer mechanism of sulforaphane is not well understood. In the present research, we reported binding modes, binding constants and stability of SFN-DNA and -RNA complexes by Fourier ...

Anticancer properties of sulforaphane: current insights at the molecular level
Sulforaphane (SFN) is an isothiocyanate with multiple biomedical applications. Sulforaphane can be extracted from the plants of the genus Brassica. However, broccoli sprouts are the chief source of sulforaphane and are 20 to 50 times richer than mature ...

Broccoli for the brain: a review of the neuroprotective mechanisms of sulforaphane
Sulforaphane, a phytochemical abundant in the sprouts of cruciferous vegetables, protects plants during a critical period of development. Through sulforaphane’s ability to activate the mammalian Nuclear Factor Erythroid 2-related Factor 2 (NRF2) pathway,
