reproductive system

growth/size/body

liver/biliary system
• whether fed a diet with tomato power or lycopene for 30 days, mice exhibit increased lycopene liver levels compared to in similarly treated wild-type mice
• in mice fed a diet supplemented with zeaxanthin
• mice fed a diet supplemented with zeaxanthin exhibit liver steatosis with large lipid droplets unlike wild-type mice
• hepatocytes from mice fed a diet supplemented with zeaxanthin exhibit impaired mitochondrial function with reduced oxygen consumption compared with hepatocytes from wild-type mice

homeostasis/metabolism
• whether fed a diet with tomato power or lycopene for 30 days, mice exhibit increased beta-carotene and lycopene tissue levels compared to in similarly treated wild-type mice
• whether fed a diet with tomato powder or lycopene for 30 days, mice exhibit increased lycopene serum levels compared to in similarly treated wild-type mice
• in mice fed a diet supplemented with zeaxanthin

immune system

endocrine/exocrine glands

hematopoietic system

adipose tissue
• mice fed a diet supplemented with zeaxanthin or lutein exhibit yellow coloring of adipose tissue compared with similarly treated wild-type mice

cellular
• hepatocytes from mice fed a diet supplemented with zeaxanthin exhibit impaired mitochondrial function with reduced oxygen consumption compared with hepatocytes from wild-type mice
