beta-Phenylethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) is a promising chemoprotective compound that is routinely consumed in the diet as its glucosinolate precursor. Previous studies have shown that PEITC can inhibit phase I enzymes and induce phase II detoxification enzymes along with apoptosis in vitro. The
This study was aimed to examine the effects of indole-3-carbinol (I3C) and beta-phenylethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC), bioactive components present in cruciferous vegetable, on the production of inflammatory mediators, including nitric oxide (NO), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and
This study was aimed at examining the effects of glucosinolate derivatives including phenylethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC), benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC), and indole-3-carbinol (I3C), on the induction of apoptosis in human non-small cell lung carcinoma A549 cells. The results indicated that all tested
Chemical-induced oxidative stress to a cell can signal many cellular responses which include proliferation, differentiation, hemeostasis, apoptosis or necrosis. To better understand the underlying molecular mechanisms after exposure to chemicals, we investigated the signal transduction pathways, in
