The molecular mechanism of antioxidant effect of astaxanthin and preparation of its nanosuspensions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
虾青素(astaxanthin,3,3'-二羟基-4,4'-二酮-β,β'胡萝卜素)属于叶黄素类β-胡萝卜素。研究发现虾青素对人类健康很有益处,对许多疾病都有很好的治疗保护作用。它主要的药理作用包括:抗氧化、抗肿瘤、抗炎、对心血管保护作用及神经保护作用等。 前期研究表明,虾青素的抗溃疡作用与氧化应激密切相关,但未在分子水平进行深入研究。因此,本课题以胃癌细胞为研究对象,采用Westernblot法检测虾青素刺激后氧化还原信号通路关键蛋白的激活情况,通过DCFH-DA法检测细胞内ROS的改变 ...
