How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What it acts on

  1. Intact blackcurrant anthocyanins were detected in rat and rabbit ocular tissues after the reported oral or injected exposures.

    Rats: oral and intraperitoneal studies; rabbits: intravenous study. Not equivalent routes or human exposures.

    limitations
    No human retinal concentration or vitamin-A replacement inferred. Route-specific doses not extracted from accessible abstract.

    **Animal ocular delivery has been observed.** Blackcurrant anthocyanins were detected intact in rat and rabbit ocular tissues after the reported oral and injected administrations. Route and species matter: these experiments cannot establish a human retinal concentration after eating berries, an equivalence to vitamin A, or enhanced rhodopsin regeneration in people.
