Description | (9-Cis,9'-cis)-7,7',8,8'-Tetrahydro-psi,psi-carotene, also known as 9,9'-di-cis-zeta-carotene or carotene, zeta, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as carotenes. These are a type of unsaturated hydrocarbons containing eight consecutive isoprene units. They are characterized by the presence of two end-groups (mostly cyclohexene rings, but also cyclopentene rings or acyclic groups) linked by a long branched alkyl chain. Carotenes belonging form a subgroup of the carotenoids family. Thus, (9-cis,9'-cis)-7,7',8,8'-tetrahydro-psi,psi-carotene is considered to be an isoprenoid lipid molecule (9-cis,9'-cis)-7,7',8,8'-Tetrahydro-psi,psi-carotene is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral (9-cis,9'-cis)-7,7',8,8'-Tetrahydro-psi,psi-carotene exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Since carotenoids are among the micronutrients found in cancer-preventive foods, detailed qualitative and quantitative determination of these compounds, particularly in fruits and vegetables and in human plasma, have recently become increasingly important (PMID: 1416048 , 15003396 ). Over recent years there has been considerable interest in dietary carotenoids with respect to their potential in alleviating age-related diseases in humans. This attention has been mirrored by significant advances in cloning most of the carotenoid genes and in the genetic manipulation of crop plants with the intention of increasing levels in the diet. Animals are unable to synthesize carotenoids de novo, and rely upon the diet as a source of these compounds. Carotenoids are isoprenoid molecules that are widespread in nature and are typically seen as pigments in fruits, flowers, birds, and crustacea. ζ -carotene is found in Rosa rugosa. It was first documented in 1992 (PMID: 1416048). Studies have shown an inverse relationship between the consumption of certain fruits and vegetables and the risk of epithelial cancer (PMID: 15003396) (PMID: 8617254). |
