Xanthophylls protect against induced oxidation in cultured human retinal pigment epithelial cells

2011-09-01

Abstract excerpt

Lutein and zeaxanthin are dietary carotenoids which accumulate in human retina, including the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. Oxidative damage of RPE cells is involved in the pathogenesis age related macular degeneration (AMD). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential protective effect of lutein and zeaxanthin against hydrogen peroxide induced oxidative stress in cultured human RPE cells. Hu...
