Therapeutic Modulation of Inflammatory Signaling via Physalis Peruviana-Derived Exosomes: A Targeted Effect on IKK/NFκB/STAT1. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Nutr Food Res
Exosomes derived from Physalis peruviana contain various bioactive compounds, such as RNAs, proteins, and secondary metabolites. These exosomes have been shown to contain different types of carotenoids that may have therapeutic properties. Physalis peruviana exosomes are capable of exhibiting anti‐inflammatory effects by influencing the IKK/NFκB/STAT1 ...

Nutritional Aspects of Phytoene and Phytofluene, Carotenoid Precursors to Lycopene [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Nutrition, 2011
Epidemiological studies suggest an inverse relationship between tomato consumption and serum and tissue lycopene (LYC) levels with risk of some chronic diseases, including several cancers and cardiovascular disease. LYC, the red carotenoid found in tomatoes, is often considered to be the primary bioactive carotenoid in tomatoes that mediates health ...
