Cytoprotective properties of carotenoids under conditions of entry of heavy metal salts into the body

Abstract

Studies were conducted to study the separate and combined effects of lycopene and β-carotene against the background of exposure of lead nitrate to apoptosis of cells of various functional specialization in the body. It has been shown that lycopene has a more pronounced cytoprotective effect compared to β-carotine, and with their combined effect, a cumulative effect is observed. Cytoprotective properties of lycopene are manifested in cell populations of different specialization (blood, bone marrow, thymus, spleen) under the conditions of exposure to lead nitrate and are expressed in reducing the level of cell death by the mechanism of apoptosis.
