Description：Erucin (ERU) is an isothiocyanate particularly abundant in arugula. Erucin shows anticancer, neuroprotective, and anti-inflammatory activities.

In Vitro：Erucin (ERU) (0-100 μM) releases H2S and inhibits cell viability in AsPC‐1 cells in a concentration-dependent manner[1]. Erucin inhibits cell migration and altered the AsPC‐1 cell cycle, reducing G0/G1 phase and increasing G2/M and S phases[1]. Erucin (30 μM, 72 h) induces AsPC‐1 cell apoptosis and inhibits cell migration[1]. Erucin reduces levels of phosphorylated ERK1/2 in AsPC‐1 cells[1]. Erucin (0-200 μM, 24 h) shows antiproliferative activity with an IC50 of 97.7 μM in A549 cells[2]. Erucin (0-50 μM, 24 h) induces the cleavage of PARP-1 at 50 μM, and increases p53 and p21 protein expression in A549 cells[2]. Erucin decreases LPS-induced production of NO, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in RAW 264.7 cells[3]. Erucin decreases LPS-induced expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 in RAW 264.7 cells[3]. Erucin inhibits LPS-induced activation of NFκB Signaling in RAW 264.7 cells[3].

In Vivo：Erucin (ERU) (0-300 nM) significantly inhibits TPA-induced edema formation[3]. Erucin (30 μmol/kg; i.p.; twice a week for 4 week) shows neuroprotective effects[4].
