产品描述

Erucin is an isothiocyanate derived from glucoerucin, a glucosinolate predominant in arugula (Eruca sativa Mill.) and other cruciferous vegetables. At 2.5-5 μM erucin can induce significant neuroprotective and antioxidant effects, increasing both total glutathione levels and total antioxidant capacity at the cytosolic level in dopaminergic-like neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells.[1] Growth inhibition, cell cycle regulation, apoptosis, and induction of detoxification enzymes have all been reported from use of erucin in prostate, lung, liver, and colon cancer cells.[2][3]

Erucin exhibits vasorelaxing effects and antihypertensive activity by H2 S-releasing properties

Br J Pharmacol 2020 Feb;177(4):824-835.PMID:30825379DOI:10.1111/bph.14645.

Background and purpose: Hydrogen sulfide (H2 S)-releasing agents are viewed as potential antihypertensive drugs. Recently, natural isothiocyanates emerged as original H2 S-donor agents. Among them, Erucin, present in some edible cruciferous plants, shows suitable H2 S-releasing properties and features of "druggability." The aim of this work was to investigate the erucin-mediated release of H2 S inside vascular cells, its vasorelaxing effects, and activity on BP of normo and hypertensive animals. Experimental approach: Intracellular H2 S-release and the hyperpolarizing effect of Erucin were tested using fluorescent dye, in human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMCs). Its direct vasorelaxing effect and ability to inhibit noradrenaline-induced vasoconstriction were evaluated on endothelium-intact or -denuded rat aortic rings. Its vasodilator properties were tested in coronary arteries using Langendorff-perfused rat hearts. Finally, Erucin's antihypertensive activity was evaluated in vivo in normotensive and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) by recording systolic BP using the tail-cuff method. Key results: Erucin induced the release of H2 S inside HASMCs. Moreover, Erucin hyperpolarized the membrane of HASMCs membrane in a concentration-dependent manner. It induced vasodilatation of rat aortic rings, in endothelium-denuded vessels. This effect was further improved by the presence of endothelial NO. When pre-incubated with rat aortic rings, Erucin induced concentration-dependent inhibition of noradrenaline-induced vasoconstriction. Erucin did not affect basal coronary flow but restored the flow to normal in pre-contracted coronary vessels. Finally, in vivo, Erucin decreased systolic BP in SHRs by about 25%, and restored the BP to values observed in normotensive rats. Conclusions and implications: Erucin is an H2 S donor endowed with vasorelaxing and antihypertensive effects.

Anti-Inflammatory Effect of the Natural H2S-Donor Erucin in Vascular Endothelium

Int J Mol Sci 2022 Dec 9;23(24):15593.PMID:36555238DOI:10.3390/ijms232415593.

Vascular inflammation (VI) represents a pathological condition that progressively affects the integrity and functionality of the vascular wall, thus leading to endothelial dysfunction and the onset of several cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, the research of novel compounds able to prevent VI represents a compelling need. In this study, we tested Erucin, the natural isothiocyanate H2S-donor derived from Eruca sativa Mill. (Brassicaceae), in an in vivo mouse model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced peritonitis, where it significantly reduced the amount of emigrated CD11b positive neutrophils. We then evaluated the anti-inflammatory effects of Erucin in LPS-challenged human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The pre-incubation of Erucin, before LPS treatment (1, 6, 24 h), significantly preserved cell viability and prevented the increase of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) levels. Moreover, Erucin downregulated endothelial hyperpermeability and reduced the loss of vascular endothelial (VE)-Cadherin levels. In addition, Erucin decreased vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and microsomal prostaglandin E-synthase 1 (mPGES-1) expression. Of note, Erucin induced eNOS phosphorylation and counteracted LPS-mediated NF-κB nuclear translocation, an effect that was partially abolished in the presence of the eNOS inhibitor L-NAME. Therefore, Erucin can control endothelial function through biochemical and genomic positive effects against VI.

Erucin modulates digestive enzyme release via crustacean cardioactive peptide in the elm leaf beetle Xanthogaleruca luteola (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)

J Insect Physiol 2021 Apr;130:104196.PMID:33545106DOI:10.1016/j.jinsphys.2021.104196.

Plant secondary metabolites influence the feeding in insects through several modes of action. In this study, the physiological effects of Erucin isothiocyanate were investigated on the elm leaf beetleXanthogaleruca luteola(Müller) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) via impact on crustacean cardioactive peptide (CCAP) and midgut digestive enzymes. Third instar larvae of elm leaf beetle were fed on leaves impregnated with Erucin for three days. The results showed that Erucin decreasedα-amylase, lipase, and protease release. Western blot analysis and competitive ELISA showed that Erucin decreased CCAP content of the midgut, brain, and hemolymph. Moreover, incubation of dissected midgut with CCAP and also its injection into the hemocoel increased digestive enzyme release. It could be concluded that Erucin isothiocyanate decreases CCAP content that itself led to a decrease in digestive enzyme release. Also, it suggests that CCAP could be one of the factors, regulating feeding activities in the elm leaf beetle. This report shows that CCAP is both a midgut factor and a neuropeptide that regulates digestive enzyme release in the elm leaf beetle and could be used to study Erucin effects in insects.

Erucin inhibits osteoclast formation via suppressing cell-cell fusion molecule DC-STAMP without influencing mineralization by osteoblasts

BMC Res Notes 2022 Mar 16;15(1):105.PMID:35296341DOI:10.1186/s13104-022-05988-3.

Objective: Erucin (ERN), an isothiocyanate, is derived from the vegetable arugula. Although ERN has antitumor and antioxidant activity, the effect of ERN on osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation is not well documented. In this study, we evaluated the effects of ERN on osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation in vitro. Results: ERN significantly reduced the formation of 1α,25(OH)2D3-induced tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive cells at non-cytotoxic concentrations. Furthermore, ERN downregulated the mRNA expression of osteoclast-associated genes, such as nuclear factor of activated T cells cytoplasmic-1, TRAP, and cathepsin K. In addition, ERN suppressed mRNA expression of dendritic cell specific transmembrane protein (DC-STAMP), which encodes cell-cell fusion. However, ERN did not affect mineralization by osteoblasts. Thus, our data suggest that ERN may attenuate osteoclastic bone resorption by inhibiting multinucleation of mononuclear pre-osteoclasts and by suppressing mRNA expression of DC-STAMP in bone marrow cells without influencing mineralization by osteoblasts.

The H2S-Donor Erucin Exhibits Protective Effects against Vascular Inflammation in Human Endothelial and Smooth Muscle Cells

Antioxidants (Basel) 2021 Jun 15;10(6):961.PMID:34203803DOI:10.3390/antiox10060961.

Preservation of vascular wall integrity against degenerative processes associated with ageing, fat-rich diet and metabolic diseases is a timely therapeutical challenge. The loss of endothelial function and integrity leads to cardiovascular diseases and multiorgan inflammation. The protective effects of the H2S-donor Erucin, an isothiocyanate purified by Eruca sativa Mill. seeds, were evaluated on human endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells. In particular, Erucin actions were evaluated on cell viability, ROS, caspase 3/7, inflammatory markers levels and the endothelial hyperpermeability in an inflammatory model associated with high glucose concentrations (25 mM, HG). Erucin significantly prevented the HG-induced decrease in cell viability as well as the increase in ROS, caspase 3/7 activation, and TNF-α and IL-6 levels. Similarly, Erucin suppressed COX-2 and NF-κB upregulation associated with HG exposure. Erucin also caused a significant inhibition of p22phox subunit expression in endothelial cells. In addition, Erucin significantly prevented the HG-induced increase in endothelial permeability as also confirmed by the quantification of the specific markers VE-Cadherin and ZO-1. In conclusion, our results assess anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects by Erucin in vascular cells undergoing HG-induced inflammation and this protection parallels the preservation of endothelial barrier properties.
