#Phytochemical #Isothiocyanates Inhibit Diseases and Syndromes Associated with Oxidativestress Disorder, Researchers Show

Kyle J. Norton

Dithiolthiones are phytochemicals in the class of Organosulfides, found abundantly in cruciferous vegetables, garden sorrel, horseradish, etc.

Free radicals are atoms, molecules, or ions with unpaired electrons through chemical bonds with other atoms or molecules during a chemical reaction. They may have positive, negative, or zero charges. The unpaired electrons cause radicals to be highly chemically reactive in the human body, leading to aging and cancers.

In Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD), an oxidative stress disorder, treatment with Sulforaphane, a molecule within the isothiocyanate group, decreased CEC apoptosis by 55% in unstressed group and by 43% in tBHP-treated specimens, through inhibition of oxidative stress(1).
The Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto study also indicated a similar result of sulforaphane in the improvement of antioxidant status in the testing of a number of cancer cell lines(2). Another study suggested that isothiocyanates(ITCs), found abundantly in cruciferous vegetables, may be effective as a cancer chemopreventive agent through modulation of phase II detoxifying/antioxidant enzyme activities(3).
