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
