Glucoraphanin conversion into sulforaphane and related compounds by gut microbiota
Glucosinolate glucoraphanin, common in cruciferous vegetables, is a biologically stable precursor of isothiocyanates, such as sulforaphane and erucin, potent activators of Nrf2 signaling coordinating an adaptive response to oxidative stress. Sulforaphane

Emerging role of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 in the mechanism of action and resistance to anticancer therapies [PDF]
Nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (NRF2), a transcription factor, is a master regulator of an array of genes related to oxidative and electrophilic stress that promote and maintain redox homeostasis. NRF2 function is well studied in in vitro, animal and

Flavonoids and Other Polyphenols Act as Epigenetic Modifiers in Breast Cancer. [PDF]
Breast cancer is a common cancer that occurs due to different epigenetic alterations and genetic mutations. Various epidemiological studies have demonstrated an inverse correlation between breast cancer incidence and flavonoid intake.

Navigating Transition Metal‐Dependent Cell Death: Mechanisms, Crosstalk, and Future Directions
Transition metals trigger distinct regulated cell death pathways beyond traditional apoptosis. This review examines ferroptosis (iron‐catalyzed lipid peroxidation) and cuproptosis (copper‐induced mitochondrial proteotoxicity), while exploring hypothetical “cobaltosis” as a novel pathway.

Nutrigenomics: Using Sulforaphane Consumption as a Mechanism to Prevent Cardiovascular Disease through Epigenetic Regulation [PDF]
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. Diet composition and reduced expression of the transcription factor Nrf2 are both possible factors contributing to cardiovascular disease.

Isothiocyanate from Broccoli, Sulforaphane, and Its Properties
Sulforaphane is an isothiocyanate occurring in stored form as glucoraphanin in cruciferous vegetables such as cabbage, cauliflower, and kale, and at high levels in broccoli especially in broccoli sprouts.

The emerging role of Nrf2 in heart failure: From cardioprotection to therapeutic approaches
Nrf2 signalling is impaired in heart failure, contributing to oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and ferroptosis, which drive neurohormonal activation, inflammation, and ischaemia‐reperfusion injury. This loss of Nrf2 activity exacerbates hypertension, diabetic cardiomyopathy, and cardiotoxicity, accelerating progression to overt heart ...
