Attenuation of choroidal neovascularization by dietary intake of ω-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and lutein in mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Dietary ω-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs) and lutein each protect against age-related macular degeneration (AMD). We here examined the effects of ω-3 LCPUFAs and lutein supplementation in a mouse model of AMD.

Biotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts, 2023 Background Chlorella sorokiniana FZU60 is a promising lutein producing microalga. A mixotrophy/photoautotrophy two-stage strategy can achieve high biomass concentration at stage 1 and high lutein content at stage 2, leading to excellent lutein production

Concerted action of human chorionic gonadotropin and norepinephrine on intracellular-free calcium in human granulosa-lutein cells [PDF]
, 1993 Luteal cells are known to possess receptors for LH/hCG and receptors of the beta-adrenergic type. Interactions of specific agonists with either receptor lead to the activation of adenylate cyclase and subsequently to an increase of cAMP.
