Carotenoids and Gene Regulation

27 Apr 2009

Abstract excerpt

Consumption of dietary carotenoids, plant pigments found in green, yellow, and orange fruits and vegetables, has been linked to decreased risk of cancer. Several intervention trials with beta-carotene, however, have failed to confirm this association. Indeed, in current smokers, beta-carotene appeared to increase risk. These disturbing results have not been explained. Laboratory studies with experimental animals...
