Abstract:
The effects of lutein and zeaxanthin on lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) induced secretion of IL-8 by uveal melanocytes (UM) were tested in cultured human UM. MTT assay revealed that LPS (0.01–1 μg/mL) and lutein and zeaxanthin (1–10 μM) did not influence the cell viability of cultured UM. LPS caused a dose-dependent increase of secretion of IL-8 by cultured UM. Lutein and zeaxanthin did not affect the constitutive secretion of IL-8. However, lutein and zeaxanthin decreased LPS-induced secretion of IL-8 in cultured UM in a dose-dependent manner. LPS significantly increased NF-κB levels in cell nucle

Abstract:
Zeaxanthin and lutein have a wide range of pharmacological applications. In this study, we conducted systematic experimental research to optimize antioxidant extraction based on detection, extraction, process amplification, and purification. An ultrasonic-assisted method was used to extract zeaxanthin and lutein with high efficiency from corn gluten meal. Firstly, the effects of solid-liquid ratio, extraction temperature, and ultrasonic extraction time on the extraction of zeaxanthin were investigated in single-factor experiments. The optimization extraction parameters of zeaxanthin and lutein

Abstract:
Lutein and zeaxanthin are xanthophyll carotenoids that are highly concentrated in the human macula, where they protect the eye from oxidative damage and improve visual performance. Distinguishing lutein from zeaxanthin in images of the human retina in vivo or in donor eye tissues has been challenging because no available technology has been able to reliably differentiate between these two carotenoids, which differ only in the position of one C = C bond. Here, we report the differential distributions of lutein and zeaxanthin in human donor retinas mapped with confocal resonance Raman microscopy

One purpose of this study was to understand the oxidation metabolites of zeaxanthin, another was to prepare, purify, and characterize a series of 3'-alkyl lutein ethers for use as internal standards. Studies have proven that lutein and zeaxanthin are two of the principal carotenoids in human serum and the only carotenoids found in the retina, but their metabolism and transport in the human body are still only poorly understood. In vitro oxidation of zeaxanthin with MnO2 produced three components. They were characterized by HPLC, UV/Vis, MS, NMR and identified as all-trans rhodoxanthin and its

Abstract:
Xanthophyll, a short-wavelength absorbing, non-bleaching macular pigment consisting primarily of lutein and zeaxanthin (Bone et al., 1985), may partially protect the foveal photoreceptors from light damage (Kirschfeld, 1982). For example, it has been suggested that the characteristic fundus pattern of bull’s eye maculopathies may be the clinical expression of this relative photoprotective effect (Weiter and Delori, 1986). It is of interest, therefore, to develop an objective, noninvasive technique for estimating the optical density of the macular pigment in the human eye.

The yellow macular pigment may have a protective function (Kirschfeld, 1982), but it is generally thought to reduce the deleterious effects of chromatic aberration on foveal vision.
