Allyl isothiocyanate, a chief component of mustard oil, exhibits anticancer effects in both cultured cancer cells and animal models. The accumulation of the N-acetylcysteine conjugate of allyl isothiocyanate, the final metabolite of allyl isothiocyanate, in urine was evaluated in rats that were
The modifying effects of alpha-naphthyl isothiocyanate (ANIT) on 2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP)-induced mammary carcinogenesis were investigated in female Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, and the hepatic activities of the phase II detoxifying enzymes glutathione S-transferase (GST) and
A structure-activity relationship study was carried out to identify structural features in arylalkyl and alkyl isothiocyanates that are associated with the inhibitory potency of these compounds against lung tumorigenesis induced in A/J mice by the tobacco-specific nitrosamine
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is involved in the development of several liver diseases and tumors. This study investigated the underlying mechanisms of α-naphthyl isothiocyanate (ANIT)-induced liver injury with cholestasis in mice and found ER stress contributes to the injury. All animals were
The apoplastic ionic milieu contains essential determinants for cell expansion and plant growth. Since pH is a multifunctional basic component of this extracellular space, the knowledge of its behaviour during stress situations is of major importance. In detached leaves of maize (Zea mays L. cvs.
Phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC), a constituent of many cruciferous vegetables, is an effective chemopreventive agent against N-nitrosamine-induced carcinogenesis. We have investigated the extent to which PEITC modulates the clastogenicity of standard genotoxicants, mitomycin C and cyclophosphamide,
A 2-year carcinogenesis bioassay of food-grade allyl isothiocyanate (greater than 93% purity), a flavoring agent, was conducted by administering 12 or 25 mg/kg allyl isothiocyanate in corn oil five times per week by gavage to groups of 50 F344/N rats and 50 B6C3F1 mice of each sex for 103 weeks.
Modifying effects of benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC), a glucosinolate compound, were investigated on 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP)-induced mammary carcinogenesis in female SD rats. One hundred twenty five female rats were divided into 4 groups. Starting at 6 weeks of age, rats
The effects of phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) on benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P)-induced DNA adducts and pulmonary adenomas in A/J mice were investigated. Groups of 24 male and 24 female A/J mice were administered PEITC by gavage at doses of 0.075, 0.25, 0.50, and 0.75 mmol/kg (12, 41, 82, 122 mg/kg) for 6
The abilities of phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) and 6-phenylhexyl isothiocyanate (PHITC) to inhibit 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK)-induced lung tumorigenicity, when administered by a standard four-dose protocol or by a single-dose protocol, were determined. Corn oil or
Six homologous arylakyl isothiocyanates were evaluated for their abilities to inhibit pulmonary adenomas induced by the tobacco-specific nitrosamine 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) in A/J mice. Four consecutive daily doses (5 mumol/mouse) of phenyl isothiocyanate (PITC), benzyl
The chemopreventive effects of phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) were investigated in N-nitrosobis(2-oxopropyl)-amine (BOP)-treated hamsters. Female 5-week-old Syrian golden hamsters were divided into six groups. Animals in groups 1-3, each consisting of 30 hamsters, were given BOP by two
The modifying effects of dietary 4-phenylbutyl isothiocyanate (PBITC), given during the initiation stage of carcinogenesis, were investigated in hamsters treated with N-nitrosobis(2-oxopropyl)amine (BOP). A total of 120 female 5-week-old hamsters were divided into six groups. Animals in groups 1-3,
Naturally occurring phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) and its synthetic homolog 6-phenylhexyl isothiocyanate (PHITC) are both effective inhibitors of 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone-induced lung tumor development in A/J mice and F344 rats. To help explain why PHITC is considerably more
Epidemiological and experimental researches show that isothiocyanate (ITC), a class of phytochemical compounds that imparts a characteristic biting taste and pungent odour to cruciferous vegetables, such as daikon (Japanese white radish, Raphanus sativus L. Daikon Group), broccoli, cabbage, and
