Glucoraphanin conversion into sulforaphane and related compounds by gut microbiota by Tetiana R. Dmytriv, Tetiana R. Dmytriv, Oleh Lushchak, Oleh Lushchak, Volodymyr I. Lushchak, Volodymyr I. Lushchak

“…Sulforaphane is formed by the hydrolysis of glucoraphanin by a plant enzyme called myrosinase, which is inactivated in the stomach of mammals. Since the latter do not have enzymes possessing myrosinase-like activity, glucoraphanin can be metabolized by the gut microbiota, to sulforaphane, sulforaphane-nitrile, glucoerucin, erucin, and erucin-nitrile. …”

Cortical and subcortical activities during food rewards versus social interaction in rats by Florbela Rocha-Almeida, Ana R. Conde-Moro, Antonio Fernández-Ruiz, José M. Delgado-García, Agnès Gruart

“…Abstract Balancing food foraging with social interaction is crucial for survival and reproduction in many species of mammals. We wanted to investigate the reward preferences in adult male rats by allowing them to lever-press for both food and social rewards (interaction with another rat), while their performance and electrophysiological activities were recorded. …”
