Sulforaphane suppresses the activity of sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs) by promoting SREBP precursor degradation

Abstract Sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs) are transcription factors that regulate various genes involved in cholesterol and fatty acid synthesis. In this study, we describe that naturally occurring isothiocyanate sulforaphane (SFaN) impairs fatty acid synthase promoter activity an...
