The Effect of the Glucosinolate Sinigrin on Alterations in Molecular Biomarkers of the Myocardium in Swiss Mice by Nikola Ferara, Vedran Balta, Domagoj Đikić, Dyana Odeh, Ana Mojsović-Ćuić, Lana Feher Turković, Dario Dilber, Anđelo Beletić, Irena Landeka Jurčević, Ivana Šola

“…These results suggest that the hydrolysis products of sinigrin may exert a potentially toxic effect on the myocardial tissue of female mice and possess the capability to modulate transcription factors <i>in vivo</i> in a sex-dependent manner. This observation calls for further investigation into the mechanisms regulating the actions of glucosinolate hydrolysis products, their interactions with sex hormones, and the determination of permissible intake levels associated with both beneficial and adverse outcomes.…”
