The power of ionic movements in plants. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary The movement of ion‐driven electrogenic events known as plant action potentials in the Venus flytrap Dionaea muscipula has first been recognized in Darwin's time. Besides electrophysiological techniques making use of current‐ and voltage‐recording electrodes, today an ever‐growing spectrum of tools has become available, that report online ...

Molecular constraints on tolerance‐resistance trade‐offs: Is there a cost?
Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 317-323, December 2023., 2023 Recent studies have shown that plant tolerance and resistance are positively associated given they are co‐localized in the same molecular pathway, the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway. However, given that both defensive strategies utilize carbon skeletons from a shared resource pool in the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway there are likely costs ...

Microbial degradation of plant toxins
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 12, Page 2988-3010, December 2023., 2023 Plants produce a variety of secondary metabolites. This review summarizes the knowledge on microbial degradation of those metabolites with a focus on the genes and enzymes involved in the biodegradation pathways. Knowledge gaps and possible biotechnological applications of plant metabolite degrading microorganisms are highlighted.

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 11, Issue 10, Page 5918-5927, October 2023., 2023 The seeds of Descurainia sophia (L.) Webb ex Prantl contain goitrogenic glucosinolates, such as gluconapin (3‐butenyl glucosinolate). Because of the important role of iodine in the synthesis of thyroid hormones and the inhibitory activity of D. sophia on iodine uptake by the thyroid gland, this study aimed to determine the effects of D. sophia syrup on

Phytotherapy Research, Volume 36, Issue 6, Page 2616-2627, June 2022., 2022 Abstract Eruca sativa Mill. is an edible plant belonging to the Brassicaceae botanical family with a long story as a medicinal material, mainly linked to the presence of glucoerucin. One of the main products of this glucosinolate is erucin, a biologicallly active isothiocyanate recently recognized as a hydrogen sulfide (H2S) donor.

Biological mechanisms and clinical efficacy of sulforaphane for mental disorders
General Psychiatry, Volume 35, Issue 2, April 2022., 2022 Current clinical management of major mental disorders, such as autism spectrum disorder, depression and schizophrenia, is less than optimal. Recent scientific advances have indicated that deficits in oxidative and inflammation systems are extensively involved in the pathogenesis of these disorders. These findings have led to expanded considerations for

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 70, Issue 2, 29 January 2026.Broccoli accumulates glucoraphanin, converted to sulforaphane, which activates nuclear factor erythroid 2‐related factor 2 (Nrf2), which may reduce age‐related inflammation. Given sulforaphane's rapid excretion, we hypothesised that its effects are mediated via plasma extracellular vesicles (EVs).

Further Investigation Into an Environmental Source for Aminorex
Drug Testing and Analysis, Volume 17, Issue 8, Page 1357-1367, August 2025.The results provide evidence that resedine is an intermediary compound between barbarin and aminorex in horses and that resedine can be used as a biomarker to eliminate the reporting of aminorex positives originating from the ingestion of plants from the Brassicaceae family.
