Carotenoids of the centrarchidae
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, 1970Abstract 1. 1. The carotenoid found in the skin and fins of eleven species of Centrarchids was identified as lutein, in the esterified form. 2. 2. Of the five genera, Lepomis generally has higher concentrations of pigment. 3. 3. Astaxanthin appears in the fins and skin of Lepomis megalotis during the breeding season.

The possible involvement of several transcription systems in the anticancer activity of carotenoids is the focus of this review. Carotenoids modulate the basic mechanisms of cell proliferation, growth factor signaling, gap junctional intercellular communication, and produce changes in the expression of many proteins participating in these processes ...

Carotenoids and Photosynthesis
2016Carotenoids are ubiquitous and essential pigments in photosynthesis. They absorb in the blue-green region of the solar spectrum and transfer the absorbed energy to (bacterio-)chlorophylls, and so expand the wavelength range of light that is able to drive photosynthesis.

Summary.After a brief discussion of the essential chemical properties of carotenoids, the identification, occurrence and distribution of the pigments in the gonads and related organs of plants and animals have been reviewed. The information available concerning the metabolism of carotenoids in reproductive tissues and their possible function in ...

Photoprotection by carotenoids
Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 1988Carotenoid pigments have been found to have a protective function against photosensitization in green plants. This protective ability has been exploited in the administration of high doses of beta-carotene to patients with erythropoietic protoporphyria to ameliorate the photosensitivity associated with this disease.

Nutrition, 2001
Larry Machlin had many and varied interests in nutrition in general and antioxidants in particular. Although he was interested primarily in vitamin E, he shared a curiosity about the actions of carotenoids that most nutritionists have. He served on the Organizing Committee of the 8th International Symposium on Carotenoids that was held in Boston in ...

Carotenoids are a class of isoprenoids synthesized by all photosynthetic organisms as well as by some non-photosynthetic bacteria and fungi with broad applications in food, feed and cosmetics, and also in the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries.

C R C Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 1987
In recent years, the results of research studies have suggested a positive beneficial relationship between a vegetarian-based diet and low incidence of diseases, including coronary heart disease, cancer, obesity, dental caries, and osteoporosis. beta-Carotene has specifically been suggested as a nutrient with antitumorigenic properties.
