1 Preincubation of airway epithelial cells with lycopene (dissolved in tetrahydrofuran) delivered lycopene into the cells and resulted in a 24% reduction in interleukin-6 after rhinovirus-1B infection, 31% reduction in IP-10 after rhinovirus-43 infection and 85% reduction in rhinovirus-1B replication.

2 Lycopene also decreased the release of IL-6 and IP-10 following exposure to lipopolysaccharide. Lycopene C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 10 Homo sapiens
