It is demonstrated here for the first time that BITC directly modifies mitochondrial functions, including inhibition of respiration, mitochondrial swelling, and release of cytochrome c, which suggests thatBITC induces apoptosis through a mitochondial redox-sensitive mechanism.

The positive results with compounds of unknown carcinogenicity suggest that the carcinogenic mycotoxins, penicillic acid, patulin, griseofulvin, and rugulosin may be nongenotoxic carcinogens.

The results suggest that flavoglaucin, shikonin and gingerol might be promising chemopreventive agents for intestinal neoplasia.
Stabilizing Effect of Four Types of Disaccharide on the Enzymatic Activity of Freeze-dried Lactate Dehydrogenase: Step by Step Evaluation from Freezing to Storage

Data strongly suggests that the V75M mutation confers resistance of these strains to carpropamid, and causes the low sensitivities of the SDHs of the carPropamid-resistant strains.
Gene coding for SigA-binding protein from Arabidopsis appears to be transcriptionally up-regulated by salicylic acid and NPR1-dependent mechanisms
