Lycopene

Lycopene is a lipid of Prenol Lipids (PR) class. Lycopene is associated with abnormalities such as Consumption-archaic term for TB, Chronic disease, Dehydration, furuncle and Cardiovascular Diseases. The involved functions are known as Cell Differentiation process, Signal Transduction, Biochemical Pathway, Mutation and IGF-1 Signaling Pathway. Lycopene often locates in Body tissue, Hepatic, Blood, Adipose tissue and Structure of parenchyma of lung. The associated genes with Lycopene are EPB41L2 gene, VEGFB gene, P4HTM gene, FATE1 gene and SLC33A1 gene. The related lipids are Micelles, Liposomes, Total cholesterol, Steroids and apo-10'-lycopenoic acid. The related experimental models are Mouse Model, Knock-out, Cancer Model, Transgenic Model and Xenograft Model.
