Abstract:
Kale (Brassica oleracea L. var. acephala DC) is a popular cruciferous vegetable originating from Central Asia, and is well known for its abundant bioactive compounds. This review discusses the main kale phytochemicals and emphasizes molecules of nutraceutical interest, including phenolics, carotenoids, and glucosinolates. The preventive and therapeutic properties of kale against chronic and degenerative diseases are highlighted according to the most recent in vitro, in vivo, and clinical studies reported. Likewise, it is well known that the application of controlled abiotic stresses can be used as an effective tool to increase the content of phytochemicals with health-promoting properties. In this context, the effect of different abiotic stresses (saline, exogenous phytohormones, drought, temperature, and radiation) on the accumulation of secondary metabolites in kale is also presented. The information reviewed in this article can be used as a starting point to further validate through bioassays the effects of abiotically stressed kale on the prevention and treatment of chronic and degenerative diseases.
摘要:
羽衣甘蓝(甘蓝变种。acephalaDC)是一种流行的十字花科蔬菜,起源于中亚,并以其丰富的生物活性化合物而闻名。这篇综述讨论了羽衣甘蓝的主要植物化学物质,并强调了营养保健的分子,包括酚类物质,类胡萝卜素,和芥子油苷.根据最近的体外研究,羽衣甘蓝对慢性和退行性疾病的预防和治疗特性得到了强调,在体内,和临床研究报告。同样,众所周知,控制非生物胁迫的应用可以用作增加具有健康促进特性的植物化学物质含量的有效工具。在这种情况下,不同非生物胁迫的影响(盐水,外源植物激素,干旱,温度,和辐射)还介绍了羽衣甘蓝中次生代谢物的积累。本文回顾的信息可作为起点,通过生物测定进一步验证异常应激羽衣甘蓝对预防和治疗慢性和退行性疾病的影响。
