Triplet-driven chemical reactivity of β-carotene and its biological implications

Mateusz Zbyradowski et al.

Summary: The endoperoxides of beta-carotene are formed in a non-concerted triplet-triplet reaction and their reactivity towards oxygen is governed by the excited triplet state. Beta Car-EPOs release singlet oxygen upon light-induced breakdown and trigger free radicals, leading to the pro-oxidant activity of beta-carotene. Carotenoids weakly sensitize singlet oxygen. These findings challenge the prevailing models of carotenoid photophysics and the antioxidant functioning of beta-carotene.

Lutein and Zeaxanthin in the Lipid Bilayer-Similarities and Differences Revealed by Computational Studies

Krzysztof Makuch et al.

Summary: Lutein and zeaxanthin are two similar carotenoids that play a protective role in cells and can be located at different positions and orientations in the bilayer. Molecular dynamics simulations provide insights into why lutein may remain in a horizontal orientation while zeaxanthin does not.

Factors Differentiating the Antioxidant Activity of Macular Xanthophylls in the Human Eye Retina

Justyna Widomska et al.

Summary: Macular xanthophylls, absorbed from the human diet, accumulate in high concentrations in the human retina and efficiently protect against oxidative stress. The unique spatial distributions of macular xanthophylls-lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin-in the retina play a key role in maximizing the protection of the retina by these xanthophylls.

Light-Modulated Sunscreen Mechanism in the Retina of the Human Eye

Rafal Luchowski et al.

Summary: Xanthophylls in the human retina play a crucial role in dynamically controlling the intensity of light reaching the photoreceptors, enabling vision at very low light intensity and protecting the retina from photodegradation when exposed to strong light suddenly. This regulatory mechanism is based on the dynamic modulation of light absorption through reorientation of pigment molecules induced by trans-cis photoisomerization.
