Molecular mechanisms of vitamin E transport.

Annual review of nutrition - 1 Jan 1999

Traber M G, Arai H

Abstract excerpt

If the function of vitamin E is that of an antioxidant and the various forms of vitamin E have similar antioxidant activities, then why does RRR-alpha-tocopherol have the highest biologic activity? This chapter describes how interactions by investigators from various scientific disciplines using stable isotopes, molecular biology tools, and sophisticated genetic studies of humans with vitamin E deficiency have...
