The market for lutein encompasses pharmaceutical, dietary supplement, food, animal and fish feed industries. &lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;The present review aimed to provide an updated and comprehensive analysis of lutein, including its chemistry, biological properties and therapeutic potentials. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Relevant literatures were collected from several scientific databases, include Google Scholar, Pubmed and ScienceDirect between 2000 to till date. Following a detailed inclusion and exclusion screening process, the information obtained was summarized. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Information on the sources, chemistry and biological properties including antioxidant, anti-arthrisits, antiinflammatory, hepatoprotective, cardioprotective, anti-cataract, antidiabetic, anticancer and bone remodelling activities, as well as food industry processing for lutein were tabled. Lutein can be considered powerful antioxidants along with multifaceted molecular targets, such as NF-ҡB, PI3K/Akt, Nrf‑2, HO-1 and SIRT-1 signaling pathways in various pathological conditions. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The present review observe the chemical, pharmacological properties, in addition to the therapeutic potentials of lutein. It is hoped that the information can provide a good reference to aid in the development and utilization of lutein in phytopharmaceuticals and food industries.&lt;/p&gt;
