Description

Brassicasterol is a plant sterol with a basic structure. It has been shown to have anti-inflammatory activity in animal and cell models. Brassicasterol is found in the leaves and flowers of Brassica plants, such as broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, turnips, and Brussels sprouts. It is also found in human serum and blood samples at high concentrations. The chemical properties of brassicasterol make it stable in basic conditions, which may be why it has been detected in human serum. Furthermore, brassicasterol binds to other sterols to form stable complexes that are resistant to lysis by enzymes or cell lysis. These sterols are important for maintaining healthy cholesterol levels and preventing cardiovascular disease.
