Glucosinolate-Rich Floral Extracts Hinder Nosema (= Vairimorpha) ceranae Infection in Caged Apis mellifera Workers

Matteo Carloni, Eleonora Pagnotta, Laura Righetti, Lorena Malaguti et autres

Colony losses in Apis mellifera are caused by multiple stressors, among which the parasitic microsporidian Nosema (= Vairimorpha) ceranae. As an alternative to the controversial fumagillin, sustainable control strategies based on natural bioactive compounds are increasingly being explored. This study evaluated the …

From Functional Ingredients to Functional Foods: Focus on Brassicales Plant Species and Glucosinolates

Eleonora Pagnotta, Roberto Matteo, Luisa Ugolini

The concept of functional nutrition has garnered mounting attention, primarily due to growing evidence that specific dietary components have the capacity to provide health benefits that extend beyond the mere supply of basic nutrients. In this context, glucosinolate-rich species of the Brassicales …

Effect of Sodium Sulfate Treatment on the Modulation of Aliphatic Glucosinolates in Eruca sativa Mill Organs at Flowering Stage

Eleonora Pagnotta, Laura Righetti, Gabriele Micheletti, Carla Boga et autres

Glucosinolates are secondary metabolites of the Brassicales, playing a role in plant protection and as health-promoting compounds. Here, Na2SO4 was used to modulate the aliphatic glucosinolate content in different organs of Eruca sativa Mill. In flowers, which accumulate the highest amount of …

Insights into Osteogenesis Induced by Crude Brassicaceae Seeds Extracts: A Role for Glucosinolates

Laura Gambari, Eleonora Pagnotta, Luisa Ugolini, Laura Righetti et autres

Background/Objectives: Crude extracts from the Brassica genus have recently emerged as promising phytochemicals for preventing bone loss. While the most documented evidence suggests that their general biological activity is due to glucosinolates’ (GLSs’) hydrolysis products, the direct activity of GLSs is beginning …

Erucin Exerts Cardioprotective Effects on Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury through the Modulation of mitoKATP Channels

Lorenzo Flori, Rosangela Montanaro, Eleonora Pagnotta, Luisa Ugolini et autres

Modulation of mitochondrial K channels represents a pharmacological strategy to promote cardioprotective effects. Isothiocyanates emerge as molecules capable of releasing hydrogen sulfide (H2S), an endogenous pleiotropic gasotransmitter responsible for anti-ischemic cardioprotective effects also through the involvement of mitoK channels. Erucin (ERU) is …

Protein Hydrolysates from Crambe abyssinica Seed Cake as Potential Biostimulants for Root Development

Luisa Ugolini, Lorena Malaguti, Roberto Matteo, Eleonora Pagnotta et autres

Crambe abyssinica Hochst defatted seed meals were used to produce protein hydrolysates through a mild enzymatic two-step hydrolysis process. The resulting hydrolysates were rich in free amino acids, low-molecular-weight peptides, and potential bioactive compounds such as phenols, glucosinolates, or their derivatives. These …

Persulfidation of mitoKv7.4 channels contributes to the cardioprotective effects of the H2S-donor Erucin against ischemia/reperfusion injury

Lara Testai, Rosangela Montanaro, L. Flori, Eleonora Pagnotta et autres

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a gasotransmitter deeply involved in cardiovascular homeostasis and implicated in the myocardial protection against ischemia/reperfusion. The post-translational persulfidation of cysteine residues has been identified as the mechanism through which H2S regulates a plethora of biological targets. Erucin (ERU) …

Technical Performance and Chemical–Physical Property Assessment of Safflower Oil Tested in an Experimental Hydraulic Test Rig

Luisa Ugolini, Roberto Matteo, Luca Lazzeri, Lorena Malaguti et autres

Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) is an underestimated and multipurpose crop resistant to environmental stresses. Its oil presents useful chemical–physical properties, potentially exploitable for industrial purposes as a bio-based lubricant. In this work safflower oil was applied as a less toxic alternative to …
