A method for inhibiting and/or ameliorating the occurrence of diseases associated with reactive oxygen species, reactive nitrogen species, radicals and/or non-radicals in a subject whereby a subject is administered a carotenoid analog or derivative, either alone or in combination with another carotenoid analog or derivative, or co-antioxidant formulation. The analog or derivative is administered such that the subject's risk of experiencing diseases associated with reactive oxygen species, reactive nitrogen species, radicals and/or non-radicals may be thereby reduced. The analog or analog combination may be administered to a subject for the inhibition and/or amelioration of any disease that involves production of reactive oxygen species, reactive nitrogen species, radicals and/or non-radicals. In some embodiments, the invention may include a chemical compound including an at least partially water soluble carotenoid analog or derivative. The carotenoid analog may include a conjugated polyene with between 7 to 14 double bonds. The conjugated polyene may include a cyclic ring including at least one substituent. In some embodiments, a cyclic ring of a carotenoid analog or derivative may include at least one substituent. The substituent may be coupled to the cyclic ring with an ether functionality.
一种抑制和/或改善与主体中的活性氧化物种、活性氮物种、自由基和/或非自由基相关疾病发生的方法,其中向主体施用类胡萝卜素类似物或衍生物,单独或与另一类胡萝卜素类似物或衍生物或共抗氧化剂配方结合。类似物或衍生物的施用使得主体发生与活性氧化物种、活性氮物种、自由基和/或非自由基相关疾病的风险可能降低。类似物或类似物组合可用于抑制和/或改善涉及活性氧化物种、活性氮物种、自由基和/或非自由基产生的任何疾病。在某些实施例中,该发明可能包括一种包括至少部分水溶性类胡萝卜素类似物或衍生物的化合物。类胡萝卜素类似物可能包括具有7到14个双键的共轭聚烯。共轭聚烯可能包括包括至少一个取代基的环状环。在某些实施例中,类胡萝卜素类似物或衍生物的环状环可能包括至少一个取代基。该取代基可能通过醚功能基与环状环相耦合。
