Interfacial oxidation of alpha-tocopherol and the surface properties of its oxidation products.
dl-alpha-Tocopherol spread on an acidic subphase as a gaseous monolayer was oxidized slowly to a derivative that was identified by thin-layer chromatography as alpha-tocopherylquinone.

The effect of dietary n-6/n-3 fatty acid ratio on alpha-tocopherol homeostasis was investigated in rats. Animals were fed diets containing fat (17% w/w) in which the n-6/n-3 ratio varied from 50 to 0.8.

The Antiproliferative Effect of Alpha Tocopherol in F98 Cell Culture
Alpha tocopherol is the most common and biologically active form of Vitamin E. The aim of this study was to evaulate the possible antiproliferative effect of alpha tocopherol on F-98 Glioblastoma cells. F-98 glioblastoma cell line was seeded at a density

The incorporation of alpha-tocopherol and functional doses of phytosterol esters during cheesemaking does not affect DNA or mRNA dynamics of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactococcus lactis throughout and after the end of ripening [PDF]
Tocopherols and phytosterols are lipid-soluble molecules which have been widely used in the food industry. Nevertheless, the influence of these compounds on the performance of starter lactic acid bacteria (SLAB) in fermented foods has received little ...

Genome-Wide Association Study and Subsequent Exclusion of ATCAY as a Candidate Gene Involved in Equine Neuroaxonal Dystrophy Using Two Animal Models. [PDF]
Equine neuroaxonal dystrophy/equine degenerative myeloencephalopathy (eNAD/EDM) is an inherited neurodegenerative disorder of unknown etiology. Clinical signs of neurological deficits develop within the first year of life in vitamin E (vitE) deficient ...

Antioxidant supplementation decreases the cell death rate in the prostatic stromal tissue of long-term castrated rats [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of castration on cell death rate of the adult rat prostates and to evaluate the benefic action of alpha tocopherol supplementation to avoid apoptosis post-orchiectomy.

Urinary alpha-tocopherol metabolites in alpha-tocopherol transfer protein-deficient patients.
Patients with alpha-tocopherol transfer protein (alpha-TTP) defects experience neurological symptoms characteristic of vitamin E deficiency and depend on continuous high alpha-tocopherol supplements. We investigated the excretion of 2,5,7, 8-tetramethyl-2(2'-carboxyethyl)-6-hydroxychroman (alpha-CEHC), a urinary metabolite of alpha-tocopherol, as a ...
