145 results about "Carotenoid" patented technology

Carotenoids (/kəˈrɒtɪnɔɪd/), also called tetraterpenoids, are yellow, orange, and red organic pigments that are produced by plants and algae, as well as several bacteria and fungi. Carotenoids give the characteristic color to pumpkins, carrots, corn, tomatoes, canaries, flamingos, and daffodils. Carotenoids can be produced from fats and other basic organic metabolic building blocks by all these organisms. The only animals known to produce carotenoids are aphids and spider mites, which acquired the ability and genes from fungi or it is produced by endosymbiotic bacteria in whiteflies. Carotenoids from the diet are stored in the fatty tissues of animals, and exclusively carnivorous animals obtain the compounds from animal fat. In the human diet, absorption of carotenoids is improved when consumed with fat in a meal. Cooking carotenoid-containing vegetables in oil increases carotenoid bioavailability.

New co-drug, co-administration and sequential administration of selective ttr ligands that eliminate mechanism-based ocular adverse reactions in the treatment of macular degeneration and ttr amyloidosis with c20-d3-retinol

PendingCN122341593ARetinoidRetinaldehyde
Based on co-drugs representing two different chemical entities and the co- and sequential administration of the two chemical entities, novel therapies for macular degeneration and TTR amyloidosis are provided. The first component (“selective TTR ligand”) is a chemical entity that binds to TTR in the RBP4 (retinol-binding protein 4)-TTR (transthyretin) complex, which participates in the delivery of retinol to the retina. This component reduces retinol transport from circulation to the retina and provides stabilization of the TTR tetramer. The second component (“C20-D3-visual chromophore-generating compound”) is a C20-D3 modified retinoid or carotenoid that, when metabolized in mammals, ultimately produces a C20-D3 visual chromophore, which is presented in the retina as C20-D3-9-cis-retinal or C20-D3-11-cis-retinal. Deuteration at C20 reduces the formation of lipofuscin biretinol, but other functions (such as providing a precursor for the synthesis of the visual chromophore 11-cis-retinaldehyde in vivo) are not reduced.
