Sulforaphane and Benzyl Isothiocyanate Suppress Cell Proliferation and Trigger Cell Cycle Arrest, Autophagy, and Apoptosis in Human AML Cell Line.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Isothiocyanates (ITCs) are naturally occurring sulfur-containing compounds with diverse biological effects. This study investigated the effects of sulforaphane (SFN, an aliphatic ITC) and benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC, an aromatic ITC) on human acute myeloid leukemia SKM-1 cells, focusing on cell proliferation, cell death, and drug resistance. Both drug-sensitive SKM-1 cells and their drug-resistant SKM/VCR variant, which overexpresses the drug transporter P-glycoprotein, were used. SFN and BITC reduced cell viability in a dose-dependent manner, with BITC showing greater potency. IC50 values ranged from 7.0-8.0 µM for SFN and 4.0-5.0 µM for BITC in both cell types, with only slight differences between the variants. Both ITCs induced autophagy as evidenced by increased LC3-II production and caused a significant increase in the sub-G0/G1 cell population, especially with BITC. Apoptosis was more pronounced after BITC treatment, whereas SFN had a weaker effect. These results suggest that autophagy may act as a defense mechanism in response to ITC-induced apoptosis in human AML cells.
