Overexpression of PSY1 increases fruit skin and flesh carotenoid content and reveals associated transcription factors in apple (Malus × domestica)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Knowledge of the transcriptional regulation of the carotenoid metabolic pathway is still emerging and here, we have misexpressed a key biosynthetic gene in apple to highlight potential transcriptional regulators of this pathway. We overexpressed phytoene

Dose-Response Relationship Between Oral Lutein Intake and Plasma Lutein Concentration: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2022
Lutein was shown to provide health benefits for a few diseases. The dose-response relation of oral lutein intake in humans has rarely been reported. The objective is to investigate the dose-response relation between oral lutein intake and plasma lutein ...

Studies on the absorption of beta-carotene and the distribution of total carotenoid in human serum lipoproteins after oral administration*

Journal of Lipid Research, 1962
The carotenoid increment in human serum was measured after the oral administration of aqueous dispersions and lipid dispersions of β-carotene with different test meal regimens. β-carotene was readily absorbed in both forms.
