Product Data Sheet
Astaxanthin
Catalog No. A30011
Astaxanthin is a potent antioxidant primarily targeting NF-κB, leading to the down-regulation of VEGF in blood glucose regulation. This carotenoid exhibits significant anti-cancer properties by inhibiting cell proliferation, enhancing apoptosis, and preventing migration and invasion through PPARγ activation and STAT3 expression reduction. Additionally, astaxanthin demonstrates neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory activities, making it applicable in various research fields, including cancer, diabetic retinopathy, and cardiovascular disease, as well as in the enhancement of animal feed coloration.
