Antioxidant and prooxidant properties of carotenoidsA J Young
School of Biological and Earth Sciences, Liverpool John Moores University, UK
Arch Biochem Biophys 385:20-7. 2001..It is unlikely that carotenoids actually act as prooxidants in biological systems; rather they exhibit a tendency to lose their effectiveness as antioxidants...
Free radical stimulation of tyrosine kinase and phosphatase activity in human peripheral blood mononuclear cellsG M Lowe
School of Biomolecular Sciences, School of Biological and Earth Sciences, Liverpool John Moores University, Byrom Street, Liverpool, L3 3AF, United Kingdom
Biochem Biophys Res Commun 245:17-22. 1998..We conclude that unbound metals can interact with ROS and readily influence signalling mechanisms in human lymphocytes...
Lycopene and beta-carotene protect against oxidative damage in HT29 cells at low concentrations but rapidly lose this capacity at higher dosesG M Lowe
School of Biomolecular Sciences, Liverpool John Moores University, Liverpool, UK
Free Radic Res 30:141-51. 1999..This in vitro data presented maybe significant in the light of recent intervention trials...
Carotenoid composition and antioxidant potential in subfractions of human low-density lipoproteinG M Lowe
School of Biomolecular Sciences, Liverpool John Moores University, UK
Ann Clin Biochem 36:323-32. 1999..The more dense LDL subfractions, which had lower levels of these antioxidants, were more readily oxidized, highlighting their possible role in atherosclerotic events...
