Lycopene inhibits ICAM-1 expression and NF-κB activation by Nrf2-regulated cell redox state in human retinal pigment epithelial cells
Publication date: Available online 4 May 2016 Source:Life Sciences Author(s): Po-Min Yang, Zhi-Zhen Wu, Yu-Qi Zhang, Being-Sun Wung Aims Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the most common diseases leading to blindness in elderly people. The progression of AMD may be prevented through anti-inflammation and antioxidation in retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. Lycopene, a carotenoid, has been shown to possess both antioxidative and anti-inflammatory properties. This research was conducted to detail the mechanisms of these effects of lycopene-treated RPE cells. Main methods We exposed ARPE-19 cells to ...
