High impact information on Rhodoxanthin

Seasonal changes in the xanthophyll cycle and antioxidants in sun-exposed and shaded parts of the crown of Cryptomeria japonica in relation to rhodoxanthin accumulation during cold acclimation [1].
Changes in rhodoxanthin concentration mirrored changes in VAZ concentration from January to March [1].
In sun needles, however, the electron transport rate (ETR) and photochemical quenching (q(P)) decreased to their lowest values in December, just before the accumulation of rhodoxanthin, which coincided with the highest amount of VAZ [1].
In summary, our results suggested that rhodoxanthin-induced apoptosis in Hela cells occured via these pathways [2].
Rhodoxanthin induced an accumulation of cells in the S phase of the cell cycle, reduced the mitochondria transmembrane potential and increased the concentration of intracellular Ca(2+) [2].

Biological context of Rhodoxanthin

Rhodoxanthin inhibited cell proliferation in Hela cells in a dose and time-dependent manner [2].
