Divergent effects of alpha-tocopherol and vitamin C on the generation of dysfunctional HDL associated with diabetes and the Hp 2-2 genotype.

Antioxidants and Redox Signaling, 2010
The haptoglobin (Hp) 2-2 genotype is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in diabetes (DM). We recently proposed this increased risk arises from the tethering of redox active hemoglobin (Hb) to high density lipoprotein (HDL ...

Diglycerides of Natural Phenols and Organic Acids for Enhanced Biological Activities

Asian Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Diglycerides of natural organic acids and phenols were synthesized regio‐selectively. Diglycerides are structurally similar to cell membranes and are expected to exhibit cell affinity and permeability. The flexible glycerol linkers allow the diglycerides to exhibit not only the physiological activities of each constituent organic acid but also the ...

Synthesis and characterization of BODIPY-alpha-tocopherol: a fluorescent form of vitamin E.

Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2010
Fluorescent nitrobenzoxadiazole analogues of alpha-tocopherol (NBD-alpha-Tocs; lambda(ex) = 468 nm, lambda(em) = 527 nm) have been made previously to aid study of the intracellular location and transfer of vitamin E.

Autosomal Recessive Cerebellar Ataxias: Translating Genes to Therapies

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxias are disabling neurodegenerative genetic conditions affecting balance and coordination. Advancements in genomic testing have improved diagnosis, leading to a new focus on the development of targeted precision therapeutics addressing cellular, biochemical, and genetic disease mechanisms with a resulting emphasis on ...

Relative bioavailability of all-rac and RRR vitamin E based on neutrophil function and total alpha-tocopherol and isomer concentrations in periparturient dairy cows and their calves.

Journal of Dairy Science, 2009
The objective of this experiment was to determine whether source of supplemental alpha-tocopherol fed to periparturient dairy cows affects neutrophil function and vitamin E status of the cow and the neonatal calf. Starting 14 d before anticipated calving

Vitamin E intake, alpha-tocopherol status, and pancreatic cancer in a cohort of male smokers.

American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2009
BACKGROUND Evidence indicates that vitamin E has anticarcinogenic properties for gastrointestinal cancers; however, few studies have examined this with respect to exocrine pancreatic cancer.

The Impact of Pyropheophytin a (PPP) and 1,2‐Diacylglycerols (DAGs) on Extra Virgin Olive Oil Quality and Shelf Life

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The quality and shelf life of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) are pivotal to its marketability and consumer satisfaction. This study evaluated how pyropheophytin a (PPP) and 1,2‐diacylglycerols (DAGs) changed for different varieties of EVOO over a 24‐month storage period under varying temperature conditions (16°C, 18°C, and 20°C).

Associations between alpha-tocopherol, beta-carotene, and retinol and prostate cancer survival.

Cancer Research, 2009
Previous studies suggest that carotenoids and tocopherols (vitamin E compounds) may be inversely associated with prostate cancer risk, yet little is known about how they affect prostate cancer progression and survival. We investigated whether serum alpha-

Biodegradable Sodium Alginate Films Incorporated With Microcapsules of Amazonian Buriti Fruit Oil (Mauritia flexuosa L.)

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pollution caused by plastic polymers is a growing concern as it compromises biodiversity and human health. As a sustainable solution, developing biodegradable films, such as sodium alginate, is promising due to its low vapor permeability, flexibility, gloss, and cost‐effectiveness.

Effects of Alpha- Tocopherol on the Velocity of Low Density Lipoprotein Oxidation by Cupric Ions [PDF]

Acta Medica Iranica, 2010
We studied the effect of different concentrations of alpha-tocopherol on in vitro cupric ions induced oxidation of low density lipoproteins (LDL). Human native LDL (50 µg protein/ml) oxidation was induced by 10 µmol/L of CuSO4.
