Abstract

Sulforaphane and erucin, two natural isothiocyanates that are highly abundant in broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables, were found to strongly inhibit quorum sensing and virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Mechanistic evaluations of these effects suggest that these isothiocyanates are antagonists of the transcriptional activator LasR.
