The conversion of β-carotene to vitamin A in adipocytes drives the anti-obesogenic effects of β-carotene in mice
OBJECTIVE: The β-carotene oxygenase 1 (BCO1) is the enzyme responsible for the cleavage of β-carotene to retinal, the first intermediate in vitamin A formation. Preclinical studies suggest that BCO1 expression is required for dietary β-carotene to affect lipid metabolism. The goal of this study was...
