Beta-carotene accumulation in serum and skin13
The accumulation off3-carotene in serum and skin was evaluated in human volunteers. A single S I -mg dose of 3-carotene given in the absence of dietary fat resulted in no detectable change in serum /3-carotene. The same dose administered with 200 g fat increased serum /3-carotene 2.5-fold at 40 h. Similarly, administering a-carotene daily in three divided doses with meals raised the serum /3-ca...
متن کاملBeta-carotene and lung cancer*
Does beta-carotene increase, rather than decrease, human lung cancer rates? A large body of observational epidemiologic study has demonstrated that individuals who eat more fruits and vegetables rich in carotenoids and/or who have higher levels of serum betacarotene have a lower risk of cancer, particularly lung cancer. This inverse relationship has been particularly strong in lung cancer patie...
متن کاملDietary carotenoids, serum beta-carotene, and retinol and risk of lung cancer in the alpha-tocopherol, beta-carotene cohort study.
Findings from several beta-carotene supplementation trials were unexpected and conflicted with most observational studies. Carotenoids other than beta-carotene are found in a variety of fruits and vegetables and may play a role in this important malignancy, but previous findings regarding the five major carotenoids are inconsistent. The authors analyzed the associations between dietary beta-car...
متن کاملBeta-carotene: the controversy continues.
The three beta-carotene intervention trials: the Beta Carotene and Retinol Efficacy Trial (CARET), Alpha-Tocopherol, Beta-Carotene Cancer Prevention Study (ATBC), and Physician's Health Study (PHS) have all pointed to a lack of effect of synthetic beta-carotene in decreasing cardiovascular disease or cancer risk in well-nourished populations. The potential contribution of beta-carotene suppleme...
متن کاملTransport of beta-carotene in serum of individuals with carotenemia.
We studied distribution of carotene in the various serum lipid fractions of carotenemic and noncarotenemic mdividuals. We found that the amount of carotene in each lipoprotein fraction is increased in the serum from carotenemic individuals, but that the relative increase is significant only in the low-density lipoprotein and high-densit)’ lipoprotein fractions. There was no significant differen...
