Novel HPLC analysis of tocopherols, tocotrienols, and cholesterol in tissue.
Free Radic. Biol. Med. 27(11-12) , 1137-40, (1999) Tocopherols and tocotrienols are being increasingly recognized to have an important role in the prevention of atherosclerosis. It has been reported that they protect low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and tissues from oxidative stress and that tocotrienols can red... |

The tocopherol, tocotrienol, and vitamin E content of the average Finnish diet.
Int. J. Vitam. Nutr. Res. 61(1) , 27-32, (1991) The Finns average intake of tocopherols, tocotrienols, and vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol equivalents) was determined. The food consumption data were derived mainly from the national food balance sheets (for 1987). The average Finnish daily diet was composed and... |

Oral toxicity of a tocotrienol preparation in rats.
Food Chem. Toxicol. 39(8) , 799-805, (2001) Tocotrienols are added as antioxidants to food. As there have been no reports of toxicological evaluation, a 13-week oral toxicity study was performed in Fischer 344 rats of both sexes at dose levels of 0 (group 1), 0.19 (group 2), 0.75 (group 3) and 3% (grou... |

Selective excretion of yolk-derived tocotrienols into the bile of the chick embryo.
Comp. Biochem. Physiol. B Biochem. Mol. Biol. 121(4) , 393-6, (1998) The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of biodiscrimination between different forms of vitamin E during the development of the chick embryo. The vitamin E present in the initial yolk consisted of alpha-tocopherol (90%), (beta + gamma)-tocoph... |

Induction of apoptosis in human breast cancer cells by tocopherols and tocotrienols.
Nutr. Cancer 33(1) , 26-32, (1999) The apoptosis-inducing properties of RRR-alpha-, beta-, gamma-, and delta-tocopherols, alpha-, gamma-, and delta-tocotrienols, RRR-alpha-tocopheryl acetate (vitamin E acetate), and RRR-alpha-tocopheryl succinate (vitamin E succinate) were investigated in estr... |

Triton WR1339, an inhibitor of lipoprotein lipase, decreases vitamin E concentration in some tissues of rats by inhibiting its transport to liver.
J. Nutr. 137(2) , 345-50, (2007) The aim of this experiment was to clarify the contribution of the alpha-tocopherol transfer activity of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) to vitamin E transport to tissues in vivo. We studied the effect of Triton WR1339, which prevents the catabolism of triacylglycero... |

Palm tocotrienols protect ApoE +/- mice from diet-induced atheroma formation.
J. Nutr. 130(10) , 2420-6, (2000) We evaluated the effects of vitamin E and beta-carotene on apolipoprotein (apo)E +/- female mice, which develop atherosclerosis only when fed diets high in triglyceride and cholesterol. Mice were fed a nonpurified control diet (5.3 g/100 g triglyceride, 0.2 g... |

Liquid chromatographic determination of tocopherols and tocotrienols in margarine, infant foods, and vegetables.
J. AOAC Int. 79(4) , 902-6, (1996) A liquid chromatographic (LC) method was developed for determination of tocopherols and tocotrienols in foods. Tocopherols and tocotrienols were released after saponification of test portions for 40 min at 80 degrees C, followed by extraction with hexane-ethy... |

Tocotrienols inhibit the growth of human breast cancer cells irrespective of estrogen receptor status.
Lipids 33(5) , 461-9, (1998) Potential antiproliferative effects of tocotrienols, the major vitamin E component in palm oil, were investigated on the growth of both estrogen-responsive (ER+) MCF7 human breast cancer cells and estrogen-unresponsive (ER-) MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cel... |

High-performance liquid chromatographic determination of tocopherols and tocotrienols and its application to diets and plasma of Finnish men. I. Analytical method.
Int. J. Vitam. Nutr. Res. 54(1) , 35-40, (1984) A HPLC Method is described for the determination of tocopherols and tocotrienols in human diets and plasma. After a room-temperature saponification diet samples were extracted with n-hexane. A direct hexane extraction was used for plasma samples. Using a norm... |
