| Compound name | 3-Indolylmethylglucosinolate (I3M) |
| Common Name | Glucobrassicin |
| Formula | C16H20N2O9S2 |
| SCC Type | Tryptophan derived glucosinolates; Indolylmethyl glucosinolates |
| SCC Function | The metabolic products of glucobrassicin, indole-3-carbinol inhibit prostate cancer by both blocking initiation and suppressing prostate cancer progression in vitro and in vivo. With regards to suppressive activity, indole-3-carbinol has the ability to antagonize cell signaling pathways known to be dysregulated in prostate cancer (Watson et al. 2013). |
