Since 1986, 54 new carotenoids have been isolated from natural sources [2) and some of these have been synthesized. In the following 'Appendix' new syntheses of carotenoids published since 1986 are listed. Included are new syntheses of carotenoids already listed in the Key to Carotenoids as well as syntheses of new carotenoids. According to the general policy of the Editors the reader is advised to use both the Key to Carotenoids and this 'Appendix' for complete information. The Key to Carotenoids includes some carotenoids which may not be natural products, such as the 5,8-epoxides which are generally considered to be artifacts but which are commonly found in natural extracts. Syntheses of such compounds are included in this 'Appendix'. The total synthesis of Z-isomers, however, is treated in Chapter 3.4. and therefore not included here. 7 CAS: 423-70-2 a-Carotene, (6'R)-p,E-Carotene Synth., [3) 340 M. Lanz and H.

  • Diverse Biosynthetic Pathways and Protective Functions Against Environmental Stress of Antioxidants in Microalgae
    plants Review Diverse Biosynthetic Pathways and Protective Functions against Environmental Stress of Antioxidants in Microalgae Shun Tamaki 1,* , Keiichi Mochida 1,2,3,4 and Kengo Suzuki 1,5 1 Microalgae Production Control Technology Laboratory, RIKEN Baton Zone Program, Yokohama 230-0045, Japan; [email protected] (K.M.); [email protected] (K.S.) 2 RIKEN Center for Sustainable Resource Science, Yokohama 230-0045, Japan 3 Kihara Institute for Biological Research, Yokohama City University, Yokohama 230-0045, Japan 4 School of Information and Data Sciences, Nagasaki University, Nagasaki 852-8521, Japan 5 euglena Co., Ltd., Tokyo 108-0014, Japan * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-45-503-9576 Abstract: Eukaryotic microalgae have been classified into several biological divisions and have evo- lutionarily acquired diverse morphologies, metabolisms, and life cycles. They are naturally exposed to environmental stresses that cause oxidative damage due to reactive oxygen species accumulation. To cope with environmental stresses, microalgae contain various antioxidants, including carotenoids, ascorbate (AsA), and glutathione (GSH). Carotenoids are hydrophobic pigments required for light harvesting, photoprotection, and phototaxis. AsA constitutes the AsA-GSH cycle together with GSH and is responsible for photooxidative stress defense. GSH contributes not only to ROS scavenging, but also to heavy metal detoxification and thiol-based redox regulation. The evolutionary diversity of microalgae influences the composition and biosynthetic pathways of these antioxidants. For example, α-carotene and its derivatives are specific to Chlorophyta, whereas diadinoxanthin and fucoxanthin are found in Heterokontophyta, Haptophyta, and Dinophyta. It has been suggested that Citation: Tamaki, S.; Mochida, K.; Suzuki, K. Diverse Biosynthetic AsA is biosynthesized via the plant pathway in Chlorophyta and Rhodophyta and via the Euglena Pathways and Protective Functions pathway in Euglenophyta, Heterokontophyta, and Haptophyta.

Academic Editor: Véronique Martin-Jézéquel Received: 10 July 2015 / Accepted: 7 September 2015 / Published: 16 September 2015 Abstract: Photosynthetic pigments are bioactive compounds of great importance for the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries. They are not only responsible for capturing solar energy to carry out photosynthesis, but also play a role in photoprotective processes and display antioxidant activity, all of which contribute to effective biomass and oxygen production. Diatoms are organisms of a distinct pigment composition, substantially different from that present in plants. Apart from light-harvesting pigments such as chlorophyll a, chlorophyll c, and fucoxanthin, there is a group of photoprotective carotenoids which includes β-carotene and the xanthophylls, diatoxanthin, diadinoxanthin, violaxanthin, antheraxanthin, and zeaxanthin, which are engaged in the xanthophyll cycle. Additionally, some intermediate products of biosynthetic pathways have been identified in diatoms as well as unusual pigments, e.g., marennine. Marine algae have become widely recognized as a source of unique bioactive compounds for potential industrial, pharmaceutical, and medical applications.

CAROTENOID DIAGENESIS IN PLEISTOCENE TO MIOCENE SEDIMENTS FROM THE PERU MARGIN1 Daniel J. Repeta2 ABSTRACT The quantitative distribution of carotenoids in sediments of Pleistocene to Miocene age from the Peru upwelling area is reported. Major pigments include /3-carotene, diatoxanthin, caroteno-3,3'-diols from phytoplankton, astaxanthin and canthaxanthin from crustaceans, and spheroidenone from bacteria. /3-carotene epoxides are major consituents, representing transformation products in the degradation of /3-carotene to low molecular weight compounds. The absolute abundance of carotenoids reflects bottom-water oxicity at the time of deposition; highest concentrations of carotenoids were observed in laminated muds deposited within the oxygen-minimum zone, with reduced or negligible concentrations of pigments observed in bioturbated sequences deposited during periods of well-oxygenated bottom water. 0-carotene, the most abundant pigment in recently deposited sediments, slowly degrades through a sequence of transformation reactions initiated by epoxidation. The 4,4' dioxo-carotenoids, which are unable to form 5,6-epoxides, have been preferentially preserved in these sediments. INTRODUCTION that would yield the fully saturated carotenes reported in ancient sediments (Murphy et al., 1967; Kimble et al., 1974). Carotenoids are highly unsaturated tetraterpenoids that Baker and Louda (1982) observed the post-depositional for• function as photosynthetic accessory pigments in all species mation of /3-carotene epoxides, which is confirmed by the of marine algae.

Received: 27 September 2017; Accepted: 17 November 2017; Published: 23 November 2017 Abstract: As is the case for terrestrial organisms, carotenoids represent the most common group of pigments in marine environments. They are generally biosynthesized by all autotrophic marine organisms, such as bacteria and archaea, algae and fungi. Some heterotrophic organisms also contain carotenoids probably accumulated from food or partly modified through metabolic reactions. These natural pigments are divided into two chemical classes: carotenes (such as lycopene and α- and β-carotene) that are composed of hydrogen and carbon; xanthophylls (such as astaxanthin, fucoxanthin and lutein), which are constituted by hydrogen, carbon and oxygen. Carotenoids, as antioxidant compounds, assume a key role in the protection of cells. In fact, quenching of singlet oxygen, light capture and photosynthesis protection are the most relevant biological functions of carotenoids. The present review aims at describing (i) the biological functions of carotenoids and their benefits for human health, (ii) the most common carotenoids from marine organisms and (iii) carotenoids having large success in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and cosmeceutical industries, highlighting the scientific progress in marine species cultivation for natural pigments production.

  • ZEAXANTHIN (SYNTHETIC) and ZEAXANTHIN-RICH EXTRACT
    ZEAXANTHIN (SYNTHETIC) and ZEAXANTHIN-RICH EXTRACT Chemical and Technical Assessment (CTA) Initially prepared by Ivan Stankovic, Ph.D., 63rd JECFA (2004) Revised by Lucia Valente Soares, Ph.D., 67th JECFA (2006) 1. Summary Zeaxanthin, 3R,3'R-β,β-carotene-3,3'-diol, belongs to a group of pigments known as xanthophylls or oxycarotenoids which have no provitamin A activity. Zeaxanthin (synthetic) can be produced through a process involving a Wittig reaction. Zeaxanthin-rich extract is obtained by extraction of the red flowers of Tagetes erecta L., followed by saponification and crystallization. The two products are of fundamentally different compositions concerning the content of zeaxanthin, by-products and impurities. Zeaxanthin (synthetic) and zeaxanthin-rich extract can be used as nutritional supplements and colours in a wide range of foods such as baked goods, beverages, breakfast cereals, chewing gum, egg products, fats and oils, gravies and sauces, hard and soft candy, infant and toddler foods (other than infant formula), milk products, processed fruits and fruit juices, soups and soup mixes in levels ranging from 0.5 to 70 mg/kg. Zeaxanthin (synthetic) and zeaxanthin-rich extract were evaluated at the 63rd JECFA (2004); zeaxanthin (synthetic) was reevaluated at the 67th JECFA (2006). The related xanthophylls was considered at the 31st JECFA (1987). Tagetes extract (commercial xanthophylls preparation) was evaluated at the 55th JECFA (2000) and again at the 57th JECFA (2001). Specifications for zeaxanthin (synthetic) were revised at the 67th JECFA and published in the Combined Compendium of Specifications (vol. 3, 2006). Separate specifications for zeaxanthin (synthetic) and for zeaxanthin-rich extract from Tagetes erecta L.

  • Carotenoids in Algae: Distributions, Biosyntheses and Functions
    Mar. Drugs 2011, 9, 1101-1118; doi:10.3390/md9061101 OPEN ACCESS Marine Drugs ISSN 1660-3397 www.mdpi.com/journal/marinedrugs Review Carotenoids in Algae: Distributions, Biosyntheses and Functions Shinichi Takaichi Department of Biology, Nippon Medical School, Kosugi-cho, Nakahara, Kawasaki 211-0063, Japan; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-44-733-3584; Fax: +81-44-733-3584 Received: 2 May 2011; in revised form: 31 May 2011 / Accepted: 8 June 2011 / Published: 15 June 2011 Abstract: For photosynthesis, phototrophic organisms necessarily synthesize not only chlorophylls but also carotenoids. Many kinds of carotenoids are found in algae and, recently, taxonomic studies of algae have been developed. In this review, the relationship between the distribution of carotenoids and the phylogeny of oxygenic phototrophs in sea and fresh water, including cyanobacteria, red algae, brown algae and green algae, is summarized. These phototrophs contain division- or class-specific carotenoids, such as fucoxanthin, peridinin and siphonaxanthin. The distribution of α-carotene and its derivatives, such as lutein, loroxanthin and siphonaxanthin, are limited to divisions of Rhodophyta (macrophytic type), Cryptophyta, Euglenophyta, Chlorarachniophyta and Chlorophyta. In addition, carotenogenesis pathways are discussed based on the chemical structures of carotenoids and known characteristics of carotenogenesis enzymes in other organisms; genes and enzymes for carotenogenesis in algae are not yet known. Most carotenoids bind to membrane-bound pigment-protein complexes, such as reaction center, light-harvesting and cytochrome b6f complexes. Water-soluble peridinin-chlorophyll a-protein (PCP) and orange carotenoid protein (OCP) are also established. Some functions of carotenoids in photosynthesis are also briefly summarized. Keywords: algal phylogeny; biosynthesis of carotenoids; distribution of carotenoids; function of carotenoids; pigment-protein complex 1.

  • Pigment-Based Chloroplast Types in Dinoflagellates
    Vol. 465: 33–52, 2012 MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Published September 28 doi: 10.3354/meps09879 Mar Ecol Prog Ser Pigment-based chloroplast types in dinoflagellates Manuel Zapata1,†, Santiago Fraga2, Francisco Rodríguez2,*, José L. Garrido1 1Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas, CSIC, c/ Eduardo Cabello 6, 36208 Vigo, Spain 2Instituto Español de Oceanografía, Subida a Radio Faro 50, 36390 Vigo, Spain ABSTRACT: Most photosynthetic dinoflagellates contain a chloroplast with peridinin as the major carotenoid. Chloroplasts from other algal lineages have been reported, suggesting multiple plas- tid losses and replacements through endosymbiotic events. The pigment composition of 64 dino- flagellate species (122 strains) was analysed by using high-performance liquid chromatography. In addition to chlorophyll (chl) a, both chl c2 and divinyl protochlorophyllide occurred in chl c-con- taining species. Chl c1 co-occurred with chl c2 in some peridinin-containing (e.g. Gambierdiscus spp.) and fucoxanthin-containing dinoflagellates (e.g. Kryptoperidinium foliaceum). Chl c3 occurred in dinoflagellates whose plastids contained 19’-acyloxyfucoxanthins (e.g. Karenia miki- motoi). Chl b was present in green dinoflagellates (Lepidodinium chlorophorum). Based on unique combinations of chlorophylls and carotenoids, 6 pigment-based chloroplast types were defined: Type 1: peridinin/dinoxanthin/chl c2 (Alexandrium minutum); Type 2: fucoxanthin/ 19’-acyloxy fucoxanthins/4-keto-19’-acyloxy-fucoxanthins/gyroxanthin diesters/chl c2, c3, mono - galac to syl-diacylglycerol-chl c2 (Karenia mikimotoi); Type 3: fucoxanthin/19’-acyloxyfucoxan- thins/gyroxanthin diesters/chl c2, c3 (Karlodinium veneficum); Type 4: fucoxanthin/chl c1, c2 (K. foliaceum); Type 5: alloxanthin/chl c2/phycobiliproteins (Dinophysis tripos); Type 6: neoxanthin/ violaxanthin/a major unknown carotenoid/chl b (Lepidodinium chlorophorum).

Astaxanthin is a kind of natural carotenoid, mainly derived from microorganisms and marine organisms. Due to its special chemical structure, astaxanthin has strong antioxidant activity and has become one of the hotspots of marine natural product research. Considering the unique chemical properties of astaxanthin and the complex pathogenic mechanism of NASH, astaxanthin is regarded as a significant drug for the prevention and treatment of NASH. Thus, this review comprehensively describes the mechanisms and the utility of astaxanthin in the prevention and treatment of NASH from seven aspects: antioxidative stress, inhibition of inflammation and promotion of M2 macrophage polarization, improvement in mitochondrial oxidative respiration, regulation of lipid metabolism, amelioration of insulin resistance, suppression of fibrosis, and liver tumor formation.
