Antioxidant-independent activities of alpha-tocopherol. [PDF]
J Biol ChemAlpha-tocopherol (vitamin E) is a plant-derived dietary lipid that is essential for the health of most animals, including humans. Originally discovered as a fertility factor in rodents, the primary health-promoting properties of the vitamin in humans was shown to be protection of neuromuscular functions.
