Evaluating the Combined Effects of Elevated [CO2] and Accelerated NPQ Relaxation on Yield, Physiology and Transcription in Soybean

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Improving photosynthesis is proposed as a means of enhancing crop productivity. To assess whether simultaneous increases in light use‐efficiency and carbon assimilation are additive, we investigated the impact of elevated CO2 on the performance of a transgenic soybean line engineered for faster relaxation of photoprotection by overexpression ...

Revealing the mechanism of the lutein protective function of epicatechin-fructan glycosylated soybean protein isolate

Current Research in Food Science
Lutein possesses various physiological activities but is susceptible to light degradation, thermal degradation, and oxidative degradation. As such, protecting the activity of lutein-based products using natural extracts has become a current research.

Antioxidants Differentially Regulate Non‐Photochemical Quenching

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Non‐photochemical quenching (NPQ) dissipates excess light energy as heat, limiting reactive oxygen species production during photosynthesis. Exogenous antioxidants are widely reported to improve plant performance under stress, yet their impacts on NPQ are inconsistent across studies, complicating mechanistic interpretation.

Oral Lutein Supplementation Enhances Macular Pigment Density and Contrast Sensitivity but Not in Combination With Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids.

, 2015
Purpose It has been shown that lutein and zeaxanthin accumulate in the macula where they enhance contrast sensitivity and may reduce the risk of progression to advanced age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Scientific Opinion on the re‐evaluation of lutein preparations other than lutein with high concentrations of total saponified carotenoids at levels of at least 80%

EFSA Journal, 2011
Lutein is a carotenoid colour authorised as a food additive in the EU (E 161b) and reevaluated by the Panel on Food Additives and Nutrient Sources added to Food (ANS) in 2010.

Suppression of hyperexcitability of trigeminal nociceptive neurons associated with inflammatory hyperalgesia following systemic administration of lutein via inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 cascade signaling

Journal of Inflammation, 2018
Introduction Lutein is a dietary constituent known to inhibit inflammation; however, its effect on nociceptive neuron-associated hyperalgesia remains to be determined.

Spatial and temporal scales in plant phenotyping for crop water stress assessment: A review

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Water stress is a major limiting factor for crop productivity worldwide, and its impacts are intensifying due to climate variability and increasing water scarcity. This review focuses on the spatial and temporal scales in plant phenotyping as a critical approach to improving crop water‐stress assessment and supporting precision water ...

Long-term oral feeding of lutein-fortified milk increases voluntary running distance in rats.

PLoS ONE, 2014
To evaluate the effects of lutein-fortified milk administration on running exercise, a voluntary wheel-running model was performed in rats. Four-week-old F344 rats were administered test milk (10 mL/kg) daily following a 4-h fasting period, and their ...

Multi‐Induction Strategies in Crops: Mechanisms, Synergistic Effects, and Sustainable Applications for Enhanced Secondary Metabolite Production

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 4, July 2026.
This review analyzes single/combined abiotic (light, water, nutrients, hormones) and biotic (microbes, yeast) elicitors regulating signaling, gene expression, and metabolism to boost plant secondary metabolites. It highlights synergistic multielicitor strategies for crop quality and functional foods, while critically addressing current limitations and ...
