Japanese scientists look to create vegetables with anti-inflammatory properties using plant pigments
A team at the Tokyo University of Science and Iwate Biotechnology Research Center have successfully genetically engineered tomatoes to produce the plant pigment betalain with significant ...
A) Phenotypes of fruits of wild-type (Tw) and betalain-transgenic tomato lines (Tb) during fruit development. B) Transcript levels of Tnf (the proinflammatory gene) in colons of DSS-induced colitis ...
Betalains are a class of plant pigments that are responsible for the characteristic red-violet (betacyanin) or yellow (betaxanthin) color of certain fruits and vegetables. These naturally occurring, ...
