Tocopherol vs. Tocopherol Acetate as a "Sparer" of Vitamin A.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1949 Summary1. In bio-assays of vitamin A, α-tocopherol, but not α-tocopherol acetate, increased the rate of gain in the assay period. In a post-assay depletion period, animals that received α-tocopherol during the assay period survived 30-80% longer than controls.2.

Oxidative stress stimulates alpha-tocopherol transfer protein in human trophoblast tumor cells BeWo [PDF]
, 2012 alpha-Tocopherol transfer protein (alpha-TTP) has been identified as the major intracellular transport protein for the antioxidant vitamin E (alpha-Tocopherol).

The formation of homogentisate in the biosynthesis of tocopherol and plastoquinone in spinach chloroplasts [PDF]
, 1982 Homogentisate is the precursor in the biosynthesis of -tocopherol and plastoquinone-9 in chloroplasts. It is formed of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate of the shikimate pathway by the 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase.

Engineering of a functional γ-tocopherol transfer protein [PDF]
, 2021 α-tocopherol transfer protein (TTP) was previously reported to self-aggregate into 24-meric spheres (α-TTPS) and to possess transcytotic potency across mono-layers of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).

Tocopherols in Micro-organisms [PDF]
Nature, 1959 ALTHOUGH the tocopherols, and in particular α-tocopherol, are widely distributed in Nature, they have not so far been identified in micro-organisms. The only micro-organism that has been adequately studied is bakers' yeast, which has been found to contain no tocopherol, although it contains another substance with vitamin E-like activity1.

Gene-regulatory activity of alpha-tocopherol.
, 2010 Vitamin E is an essential vitamin and a lipid soluble antioxidant, at least, under in vitro conditions. The antioxidant properties of vitamin E are exerted through its phenolic hydroxyl group, which donates hydrogen to peroxyl radicals, resulting in ...

A Tomato Tocopherol Binding Protein Sheds Light on Intracellular α-tocopherol Metabolism in Plants [PDF]
, 2018 Tocopherols are non-polar compounds synthesized in the plastids, which function as major antioxidants of the plant cells and are essential in the human diet.

Engineering tocopherol biosynthetic pathway in lettuce
, 2011 In order to increase tocopherol content, genes encoding Arabidopsis homogentisate phytyltransferase (HPT) and γ-tocopherol methyltransferase (γ-TMT) were constitutively over-expressed in lettuce (Lactuca sativa L. var. logifolia), alone or in combination.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Lipidic nanoparticles (LNPs) were incubated with 21 gut bacteria frequently associated with the human microbiome. SAXS revealed that ∼75% of tested species induced structural transformations in monoolein LNPs, whereas phytantriol and phospholipid formulations remained unaffected.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Fangchinoline is identified as a small‐molecule DNGR‐1 modulator that enhances dendritic‐cell cross‐presentation of tumor antigens. By engaging DNGR‐1 and activating Syk–Nox2 signaling, it promotes phagosomal ROS, antigen escape, MHC‐I presentation, and CD8+ T‐cell priming, thereby strengthening antitumor immunity and sensitizing tumors to PD‐1 ...
