IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 15722: Current Evidence on the Association of Micronutrient Malnutrition with Mild Cognitive Impairment, Frailty, and Cognitive Frailty among Older Adults: A Scoping Review
In conclusion, a wide range of micronutrient deficiency was associated with either mild cognitive impairment or frailty; however, little evidence exists on the dual impairment, i.e., cognitive frailty. This scoping review can serve as preliminary evidence for the association between micronutrient deficiency in blood and mild cognitive impairment, frailty, and cognitive frailty among older adults and prove the relevancy of the topic for future systematic reviews.

Factors determining the oral absorption and systemic disposition of zeaxanthin in rats: in vitro , in situ , and in vivo evaluations
CONCLUSIONS: To our knowledge, this is the first systematic study to report factors that determine the oral bioavailability and systemic clearance of zeaxanthin.PMID:36412560 | DOI:10.1080/13880209.2022.2143534 (Source: Pharmaceutical Biology)

Silkworm carotenoprotein as an efficient carotenoid extractor, solubilizer and transporter
Int J Biol Macromol. 2022 Nov 14:S0141-8130(22)02652-6. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.11.093. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFound in many organisms, water-soluble carotenoproteins are prospective antioxidant nanocarriers for biomedical applications. Yet, the toolkit of characterized carotenoproteins is rather limited: such proteins are either too specific binders of only few different carotenoids, or their ability to transfer carotenoids to various acceptor systems is unknown. Here, by focusing on a recently characterized recombinant ~27-kDa Carotenoid-Binding Protein from Bombyx mori (BmCBP) [Slonimskiy et al., Internation...

Lycopene, but not zeaxanthin, serves as a skeleton for the formation of an orthorhombic organization of intercellular lipids within the lamellae in the stratum corneum: Molecular dynamics simulations of the hydrated ceramide NS bilayer model
Biochim Biophys Acta Biomembr. 2022 Oct 27;1865(1):184081. doi: 10.1016/j.bbamem.2022.184081. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCarotenoids play an important role in the protection of biomembranes against oxidative damage. Their function depends on the surroundings and the organization of the lipid membrane they are embedded in. Carotenoids are located parallel or perpendicular to the surface of the lipid bilayer. The influence of carotenoids on the organization of the lipid bilayer in the stratum corneum has not been thoroughly considered. Here, the orientation of the exemplary cutaneous carotenoids lycopene and zeaxanthin in...

Plasma lutein and zeaxanthin concentrations associated with musculoskeletal health and incident frailty in The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing (TILDA)
CONCLUSION: Higher plasma lutein and zeaxanthin concentrations at baseline were associated with a reduced likelihood of incident frailty after ~8 years of follow up. Baseline plasma lutein and zeaxanthin concentrations were also positively associated with several indices of musculoskeletal health cross-sectionally but were not predictive of longitudinal changes in these outcomes over 4-8 years.PMID:36336250 | DOI:10.1016/j.exger.2022.112013 (Source: Experimental Gerontology)

Effect Modification of Selenium Supplementation by Intake and Serum Concentrations of Antioxidants on the Development of Metachronous Colorectal Adenoma
CONCLUSION: These findings show that intake and circulating concentrations of antioxidant nutrients were not consistently associated with reduced odds for the development of metachronous lesions, although blood concentrations of lycopene may modify the effect of selenium supplementation.PMID:36272100 | DOI:10.1080/01635581.2022.2135745 (Source: Nutrition and Cancer)
