Product Introduction
Lutein AI Summary
Lutein exhibits a range of notable bioactivities and chemical properties. It is particularly bioactive as an inhibitor of human tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1), with a potency of 26608.6 nM in cells in the absence of CPT, and shows gametocytocidal activity with a potency of 25118.9 nM. The compound demonstrates significant antioxidant activity, inhibiting antimycin-induced mitochondrial ROS production by 89.7% at 10 µM in mouse 661W cells. Additionally, Lutein possesses antiviral activity, inhibiting SARS-CoV-2 induced cytotoxicity in Caco-2 cells at 10 µM with an inhibition rate of 17.37%, as well as in VERO-6 cells, though with a slightly lower inhibition rate of -0.03%. It also inhibits the SARS-CoV-2 3CL-Pro protease by 8.322% at a concentration of 20 µM. Chemically, Lutein has a log POW value of 3.89, indicating its lipophilicity and higher affinity for lipid-based substances. The compound's stability and ratios can vary significantly depending on food sources and preparation methods, with the highest ratios found in raw blackberries and raw paprika. Lastly, Lutein shows mild inhibitory activity in enzymatic assays of human HDAC6..
