Although light is required for photosynthesis, excess light can cause photo-oxidative damage that decreases the efficiency and rate of photosynthesis, a phenomenon known as photoinhibition. Like all photosynthetic organisms, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii cells employ a variety of photoprotective mechanisms, antioxidant defenses, and signaling pathways to ...

Light-independent regulation of algal photoprotection by CO2 availability [PDF]
Photosynthetic algae have evolved mechanisms to cope with suboptimal light and CO2 conditions. When light energy exceeds CO2 fixation capacity, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii activates photoprotection, mediated by LHCSR1/3 and PSBS, and the CO2 Concentrating ...

Systemic photoprotection in 2021 [PDF]
Systemic photoprotection aims to negate the negative effects of ultraviolet radiation-induced DNA damage. Systemic supplements may be used as a monotherapy or in combination with topical sunscreens. Using the keywords 'carotenoids', 'flavonoids', 'systemic photoprotection', 'polyphenols' and 'polypodium leucotomos extract', we searched the databases ...

Oral Photoprotection: Effective Agents and Potential Candidates
Electromagnetic radiation in the ultraviolet, visible, and infrared ranges produces biologic effects in humans. Where some of these effects are beneficial, others are harmful to the skin, particularly those stemming from ultraviolet radiation (UVR ...

Implications of visible light and means of photoprotection
Visible light (VL) has been shown to promote genotoxicity through free radical generation and structural protein degradation. These stressful events promote cellular vulnerability, which manifests clinically as erythema, hyperpigmentation, and photoaging.

Unravelling the Photoprotection Properties of Garden Cress Sprout Extract [PDF]
Plants, as with humans, require photoprotection against the potentially damaging effects of overexposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Previously, sinapoyl malate (SM) was identified as the photoprotective agent in thale cress. Here, we seek to identify

PHOTOPROTECTION IN ERYTHROPOIETIC PROTOPHYRIA: MECHANISM OF PHOTOPROTECTION BY BETA CAROTENE
Erythropoietic protoporphyria is a genetic disease caused by the accumulation of protoporphyrin IX. This molecule absorbs 400-nm light and its presence is at times associated with severe cutaneous photosensitivity. The only effective treatment for this disease is oral administration of beta carotene.

Superior Photoprotection of Cyanine Dyes with Thio-imidazole Amino Acids
Preventing fluorophore photobleaching and unwanted blinking is crucial for singlemolecule fluorescence studies. Reductants achieve photoprotection via quenching excited tripletstates, yet either require counteragents, or for popular alkyl-thiols, are ...
