Sulforaphane, a Mustard Oil Bomb Product, Reprograms Herbivore Gene Expression by Altering Chromatin Structure Across Generations
2026-07-28
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p> Sulforaphane (SFN), an isothiocyanate produced by the mustard oil bomb defense system of cruciferous plants, is a natural inhibitor of class I and II histone deacetylases (HDACs). We previously showed that dietary SFN inhibits HDAC activity, delays larval development, and alters the expression of more than 1,600 genes in the agricultural pests <italic>Spodoptera exigua</italic> and...
