General description

An isothiocyanate isolated from broccoli that acts as a potent inducer of phase II detoxifying enzymes in mouse tissues and murine hepatoma cells in culture. It has been shown to be an effective agent in prevention of chemically-induced mammary tumors in rats. It also inhibits the phase I cytochrome P450 isoenzymes 2E1 and IA2 which have been associated with the activation of carcinogens. The induction of phase II enzymes is mediated by mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway.

We previously demonstrated that sulforaphane (SFN) inhibited autophagy leading to apoptosis in human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells, but the underlying subcellular mechanisms were unknown. Hereby, high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry uncovered that SFN regulated the production of lipoproteins
