Biochem/physiol Actions
6-(Methylsulfinyl)hexyl isothiocyanate (6-MITC) is a major bioactive compound in wasabi that exhibits antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antiplatelet, antioxidant and anticancer properties (mean log GI50 = −5.41 (3.9 μM) in a human cancer cell panel). 6-MITC concurrently induces autophagy and mitotic arrest, suppresses NF-κβ signaling by competitive inhibition of GSK-3β.
