gamma-Tocotrienol

gamma-Tocotrienol is a form of vitamin E that has been found in rice bran and has diverse biological activities. It reduces cell death induced by hydrogen peroxide, paraquat, S-nitrocysteine, SIN-1 (Cay-82220), or L-buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine (BSO, Cay-14484) in rat striatal cultures when used at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 10 µM. gamma-Tocotrienol (20 µM) induces apoptosis in malignant sympathoadrenal (+SA) mouse mammary epithelial cells. In vivo, gamma-tocotrienol (15, 30, and 150 mg/kg) reduces blood pressure and plasma lipid peroxide levels in spontaneously hypertensive rats. [Matreya, LLC.
