Objective Our goal was to examine whether pre‐diagnostic plasma carotenoids and tocopherols are associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Methods A nested case–control study within 4 United States cohorts, where 154 participants with pre‐diagnostic blood‐draw, were diagnosed during follow‐up with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Controls

This study establishes that fruit color divergence in Yanjiao pepper cultivars arises from hierarchical regulation of carotenoid metabolism, driven by yellow‐blue chromaticity variation and cultivar‐specific metabolic strategies. These findings provide a mechanistic framework for breeding peppers with enhanced color stability and nutraceutical value ...

Astaxanthin and Related Xanthophylls
This chapter describes astaxanthin and other xanthophylls, which are a class of carotenoids with oxygenated groups in their structure and characteristic vivid colors. Taking astaxanthin as a key example, the presented concepts focus on the functional aspects and applications of xanthophylls, such as their nutritional value, potential for protection ...

Dynamics of photosynthetic complexes in the thylakoid membranes from higher plants [PDF]
PhDPhotosynthetic machinery in higher plants is localised in the thylakoids enclosed in a chloroplast. To optimise and regulate the photosynthetic efficiency under different, rapidly changeable environmental conditions the dynamics of the thylakoid

Maize Biofortification Approaches for Fighting Malnutrition in Sub‐Saharan Africa
ABSTRACT Maize is a staple food in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA); however, commonly used maize varieties are deficient in essential nutrients, including lysine, tryptophan, vitamin A, and minerals such as iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn). As a result, millions of people in this region suffer from one or more nutrient deficiencies that commonly lead to malnutrition ...

Background: Dark anaerobiosis promotes the acidification of the thylakoid lumen and a reduction in the plastoquinone (PQ) pool. The relationship between the reduction in the PQ pool in the dark and the induction of the xanthophyll cycle under high light ...
