Glucobrassicin potassium is an indole-based anticancer agent and plant growth-regulating hormone. Glucobrassicin potassium exerts its biological activity by disrupting the integrity of microtubule networks in both plant and mammalian cells. At high concentrations, Glucobrassicin potassium inhibits seed germination and root growth; it can also specifically induce apoptosis in mammalian cancer cells and interfere with the intercellular transmission of viruses that rely on microtubules. In plants, Glucobrassicin potassium can be catalyzed by myrosinase to release growth-regulating substances, exhibiting a concentration-dependent growth-regulating effect.

Description

Glucobrassicin potassium is an indole-based anticancer agent and plant growth-regulating hormone. Glucobrassicin potassium exerts its biological activity by disrupting the integrity of microtubule networks in both plant and mammalian cells. At high concentrations, Glucobrassicin potassium inhibits seed germination and root growth; it can also specifically induce apoptosis in mammalian cancer cells and interfere with the intercellular transmission of viruses that rely on microtubules. In plants, Glucobrassicin potassium can be catalyzed by myrosinase to release growth-regulating substances, exhibiting a concentration-dependent growth-regulating effect[1][2].

In Vitro

Glucobrassicin potassium (50 μM; 30-180 min) induces time-dependent elimination of microtubules in tobacco BY-2 TuA3-GFP cells, with nearly complete loss of microtubule integrity observed after 180 min of treatment[1].
Glucobrassicin potassium (50 μM) drastically reduces the mitotic index and disrupts all stages of mitotic microtubule organization in Nicotiana tabacum BY-2 TuA3-GFP cells[1].
Glucobrassicin potassium (50 μM; 30-90 min) induces rapid and sustained elimination of microtubules in HeLa GFP-α-tubulin/H2B-mCherry cells[1].
Glucobrassicin potassium (25 μM; 24 h) induces pronounced apoptosis in HeLa GFP-α-tubulin/H2B-mCherry cells after 24 h of treatment[1].

In Vivo

Glucobrassicin potassium (10-5-10-2 M; applied to filter paper in contact with seeds; single initial administration) exhibits concentration-dependent effects on plant growth and germination, with strong inhibition at 10-2 M and 10-3 M, reduced inhibition at 10-4 M, and occasional stimulation at 10-5 M, and inhibits clover germination to 73% of controls at the highest tested dose[2].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
