GL261 cells	10 µM	72 h	reduced the number of BrdU-positive cells	PMC7551886
U251MG cells	10 µM	48 h	suppressed cell migration by 21.15 ± 1.84%	PMC7551886
Lymphocytes	70-300 nM	48 h	To evaluate the effect of astaxanthin on lymphocyte proliferation, results showed that astaxanthin at 300 nM significantly promoted splenic lymphocyte proliferation.	PMC4730289
SK-N-SH cells	0, 50, 100, 200, 400 µM	72 h	Astaxanthin significantly inhibited the proliferation of SK-N-SH cells in a concentration-dependent manner.	PMC10685499
SK-N-SH cells	200 µM	24 h	Astaxanthin suppressed the clone formation ability of SK-N-SH cells, and the effect was highest when combined with si-STAT3.	PMC10685499
SK-N-SH cells	200 µM	24 h	Astaxanthin induced apoptosis in SK-N-SH cells, and the apoptosis rate was highest when combined with si-STAT3.	PMC10685499
SK-N-SH cells	200 µM	16 h	Astaxanthin suppressed the migration and invasion of SK-N-SH cells, and the effect was best when combined with si-STAT3.	PMC10685499
Bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs)	30 µM	4 days	Astaxanthin inhibited RANKL and M-CSF-induced osteoclast differentiation by suppressing the expression of NFATc1, TRAP, DC-STAMP, and cathepsin K, without cytotoxic effects on BMMs.	PMC5877773
Huh7 cells	1-20 µM	24 h	To evaluate the effect of astaxanthin on cell viability, results showed that astaxanthin did not exhibit any significant cytotoxicity in concentrations of up to 20 µM in Huh7 cells	PMC4730345

Mice	Aged mice	Oral	300 mg/kg	Once daily for 8 weeks	To evaluate the effects of astaxanthin on muscle strength and muscle quality in aged mice. Results showed that the specific force was significantly higher in the astaxanthin-treated group compared to the placebo group.	PMC6204600
mice	glioblastoma model	oral	10 and 30 mg/kg	daily for 10 days	suppressed the glioblastoma progression	PMC7551886
C57BL/6 mice	OVA-induced asthma model	Oral	5, 10, 50 mg/kg	Once daily for 5 days	To investigate the inhibitory effect of astaxanthin on airway inflammation in OVA-induced asthmatic mice. Results showed that astaxanthin significantly inhibited respiratory system resistance, elastance, newtonian resistance, tissue damping, and tissue elastance. It also suppressed the total cell number, IL-4, and IL-5, and increased IFN-γ in BALF. In sera, total IgE, IgG1, and OVA-specific IgG1 levels were reduced, while IgG2a and OVA-specific IgG2a levels were increased.	PMC6150233
Mice	Not specified	Oral	0.28, 1.4 and 7 mg/kg	Once daily for 14 days	To evaluate the effect of astaxanthin on lymphocyte proliferation in mice, results showed that astaxanthin significantly enhanced LPS-induced lymphocyte proliferation.	PMC4730289
Mice	Phf7 knockout mice	Oral	30 mg/kg	Once daily for 4 weeks	To investigate the therapeutic effect of astaxanthin on spermatogenesis defects in Phf7 knockout mice, results showed that astaxanthin significantly increased sperm count and motility, and reduced ROS levels and germ cell apoptosis in the testis	PMC10618686
Nude mice	SK-N-SH tumor model	Intragastric administration	200 mg/kg	Once daily for 4 weeks	Astaxanthin suppressed the growth of SK-N-SH tumors in nude mice, and the effect was highest when combined with si-STAT3.	PMC10685499
C3H/HeN female mice	Ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis model	Oral	5 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg	Once daily for 6 weeks	Oral administration of AST for 6 weeks inhibited the increase in and uterine atrophy in ovariectomized mice, reduced serum levels of calcium, inorganic phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, and total cholesterol, and suppressed TRAP activity. Additionally, AST improved the bone microarchitecture of the tibia and femur, increased trabecular bone volume and number, and decreased trabecular separation. AST also inhibited the reduction of bone mineral density in the femur and tibia and reduced the number of TRAP-positive cells.	PMC5877773
mice	LPS-induced sepsis model	oral	50, 100, and 200 mg/kg	every 24 hours for 2 days	To evaluate the antioxidant ability of Astaxanthin in LPS-induced mice sepsis model, the results showed that Astaxanthin significantly suppressed NO and ROS production and reduced lipid peroxidation activities.
