L-Sulforaphene is a natural isothiocyanate with anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and antioxidant effects. L-Sulforaphene regulates multiple signaling pathways such as Nrf2 and NF-κB. L-Sulforaphene can be used in research related to various cancers including liver cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, esophageal cancer, and gastric cancer, as well as cardiovascular diseases[1-4].
In vitro, L-Sulforaphene (5-10μM) was used to treat 3T3-L1 preadipocytes for 2 days during the early stage of adipogenesis. L-Sulforaphene significantly inhibited lipid accumulation and adipocyte differentiation, and reduced the protein and mRNA expression of PPARγ and C/EBPα, while decreasing C/EBPβ protein levels through post-translational degradation[5]. L-Sulforaphene (20–60μM) was used to treat COV362 cells for 24–48 hours. L-Sulforaphene significantly inhibited cell viability and promoted apoptosis, while upregulating the expression of IGF2BP2 and FAS and downregulating the expression of KRT8 and METTL3[6].
In vivo, L-Sulforaphene (10mg/kg; once daily) was subcutaneously injected into PDX SCID mice implanted with esophageal cancer patient tumors for 6 weeks. L-Sulforaphene significantly reduced tumor size[7]. L-Sulforaphene (10mg/kg or 50mg/kg; every other day) was subcutaneously injected into PDX SCID mice for six weeks. L-Sulforaphene significantly reduced tumor volume[8].
