Fine-scale thermal adaptation in a green turtle nesting population.

Proc. Biol. Sci. 279(1731) , 1077-84, (2012)

The effect of climate warming on the reproductive success of ectothermic animals is currently a subject of major conservation concern. However, for many threatened species, we still know surprisingly little about the extent of naturally occurring adaptive var...

Accumulation of γ- rather than α-tocopherol alters ethylene signaling gene expression in the vte4 mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana.

Plant Cell Physiol. 52 , 1389-1400, (2011)

Tocopherols are antioxidants found in chloroplasts of leaves, and it is a matter of current debate whether or not they can affect signaling and gene expression in plant cells. For insight into the possible effects of altered tocopherol composition in chloropl...

Vitamin E isoforms directly bind PKCα and differentially regulate activation of PKCα.

Biochem. J. 441(1) , 189-198, (2012)

Vitamin E isoforms have opposing regulatory effects on leucocyte recruitment during inflammation. Furthermore, in vitro, vitamin E isoforms have opposing effects on leucocyte migration across endothelial cells by regulating VCAM (vascular cell-adhesion molecu...

Vitamin E forms inhibit IL-13/STAT6-induced eotaxin-3 secretion by up-regulation of PAR4, an endogenous inhibitor of atypical PKC in human lung epithelial cells.

J. Nutr. Biochem. 23(6) , 602-8, (2011)

Eotaxin-3 (CCL-26), a potent chemokine for eosinophil recruitment and contributing significantly to the pathogenesis of asthma, is secreted by lung epithelial cells in response to T helper 2 cytokines including interleukin 13 (IL-13). Here we showed that vita...

Novel vitamin E forms in leaves of Kalanchoe daigremontiana and Phaseolus coccineus.

J. Plant Physiol. 168(17) , 2021 -7, (2011)

In the present study, we isolated novel tocochromanols from green leaves of Kalanchoe daigremontiana and primary leaves of etiolated seedlings of Phaseolus coccineus that were identified as β-, γ-, and δ-tocomonoenols with unsaturation at the terminal isopren...

Cytoprotective effect of γ-tocopherol against tumor necrosis factor α induced cell dysfunction in L929 cells.

Int. J. Mol. Med. 28 , 711-720, (2011)

The antioxidant vitamin γ-tocopherol exerts protective and anti-inflammatory effects in various models of critical illness. The combination of actinomycin D and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) in the immortalized fibroblast cell line L929 is a well-established...

Interaction of dietary vitamin E with Eimeria maxima infections in chickens.

Poult. Sci. 81 , 41-8, (2002)

In two trials, broiler chickens, processed similarly to those placed in commercial operation, were fed, from 1 d of age, a range (13 to 200 ppm) of DL-alpha-tocopheryl acetate (VE-AC) levels, and the effects on the pathology of Eimeria maxima infections were ...
