Dietary Carotenoids and Cognitive Decline: A Longitudinal Study Among Chinese Middle-Aged and Older Adults. [PDF]

open access: yesHealth Care Sci
Higher intake of dietary carotenoids was associated with slower cognitive decline. The strongest protective association was observed for moderate carotenoid intake. Total carotenoid intake exhibited a non‐linear association with cognitive decline. ABSTRACT Background This study examined the association between dietary intakes of total and specific ...

A study on the conversion of carotene into vitamin A by fluorescence microphotometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 1971
For the purpose to confirm whether carotene is converted into vitamin A mainly in the intestine, fluorescence microscope observations as well as the fluorescence microphotometry for the estimation of fading state of the fluorescence were carried out on ...

Vitamin A equivalency of ß-carotene in healthy adults: limitation of the extrinsic dual-isotope dilution technique to measure matrix effect [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Data on the vitamin A equivalency of ß-carotene in food are inconsistent. We quantified the vitamin A equivalency (¿g) of ß-carotene in two diets using the dual-isotope dilution technique and the oral¿faecal balance technique.

Genes involved in carotene synthesis and mating in Blakeslea trispora [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Mating of Blakeslea trispora and other molds of the order Mucorales requires the interaction of mycelia of opposite sex, (+) and (-), leading to the development of specialized structures and to an enhanced accumulation of beta-carotene.

Effect of beta-carotene supplementation on African skin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The authors were funded by the South African National Research Foundation (V.C.), the British Academy, and Wolfson Foundation (D.P.).The quantification of skin carotenoid levels has a range of applications in Caucasian populations, from serving as a ...

Knockout of the Bcmo1 gene results in an inflammatory response in female lung, which is suppressed by dietary beta-carotene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Beta-carotene 15,15'-monooxygenase 1 knockout (Bcmo1 (-/-)) mice accumulate beta-carotene (BC) similarly to humans, whereas wild-type (Bcmo1 (+/+)) mice efficiently cleave BC.

Beta-carotene Reduces Body Adiposity of Mice Via BCMO1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Evidence from cell culture studies indicates that ß-carotene-(BC)-derived apocarotenoid signaling molecules can modulate the activities of nuclear receptors that regulate many aspects of adipocyte physiology.

Downregulation of Fzd6 and Cthrc1 and upregulation of olfactory receptors and protocadherins by dietary beta-carotene in lungs of Bcmo1-/- mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
An ongoing controversy exists on beneficial versus harmful effects of high beta-carotene (BC) intake, especially for the lung. To elucidate potential mechanisms, we studied effects of BC on lung gene expression.
