Tomato‐Soy Juice Reduces Inflammation and Modulates the Urinary Metabolome in Adults With Obesity
Compared to pre‐intervention, consuming a tomato‐soy juice (54 mg lycopene, 189 mg soy isoflavones/d) reduced levels of inflammatory cytokines (IL‐5, IL‐12p70, and GM‐CSF, with TNF‐alpha trending downward), increased plasma lycopene and urinary soy isoflavone metabolites, and altered the urinary metabolome. ABSTRACT Chronic, low‐grade inflammation is a

Unraveling new roles of geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthases and phytoene synthases in tomato
[ES] Los carotenoides son compuestos isoprenoides esenciales para la fotosíntesis, la fotoprotección, y como precursores de reguladores del crecimiento como el ácido abscísico (ABA) y las estrigolactonas (SL). En algunas plantas, como el tomate (Solanum lycopersicum), los carotenoides también funcionan como pigmentos que dan color a las flores y a los ...

Analysis of carotenoid accumulation and expression of carotenoid biosynthesis genes in different organs of Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa subsp. pekinensis) [PDF]
The relationship between carotenoid accumulation and expression of carotenoid biosynthesis genes was investigated in the flowers, stems, young leaves, old leaves, and roots of Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa subsp. pekinensis).

SUMMARY Fruit pigmentation mainly controlled by chlorophyll, carotenoids, and flavonoids is an important phenomenon for fortifying the nutritional and esthetic value of humans. Our previous study identified Pseudo‐Response Regulator 2 (PRR2) as a regulator of fruit pigmentation through its association with the c1 locus.
