Antioxidant and Signal-Modulating Effects of Brown Seaweed-Derived Compounds against Oxidative Stress-Associated Pathology

Figure 9

Scheme representing the multitude effects of carotenoids on the ROS-dependent signaling pathway and their related target protein gene expression. Carotenoid molecules may modulate the intracellular ROS production and can activate the redox-sensitive transcription factors or directly affect DNA damage which in turn may modify the gene expression.
