Knockout of the Bcmo1 gene results in an inflammatory response in female lung, which is suppressed by dietary beta-carotene
Beta-carotene 15,15′-monooxygenase 1 knockout (Bcmo1 (−/−)) mice accumulate beta-carotene (BC) similarly to humans, whereas wild-type (Bcmo1 (+/+)) mice efficiently cleave BC. Bcmo1 (−/−) mice are therefore suitable to investigate BC-induced alterations in gene expression in lung, assessed by microa...
