Inhibitory effect of four carotenoids prevalent in human blood and tissues against the formation of colonic aberrant crypt foci was examined in Sprague-Dawley rats. They received three intrarectal doses of N-methylnitrosourea in weak 1, and a daily gavage of de-escalated doses of carotenoids during weeks 2 and 5. Lycopene, lutein, alpha-carotene and palm carotenes (a mixture of alpha-carotene, beta-carotene and lycopene) inhibited the development of aberrant crypt foci quantitated at week 6, but beta-carotene did not. The results suggested that lycopene and lutein in small doses may potentially prevent colon carcinogenesis.
