Dietary α‐tocopherol and neuromuscular health: Search for optimal dose and molecular mechanisms continues!
25 Feb 2010
Abstract excerpt
Rodents fed alpha-tocopherol (alphaT)-depleted diets develop neuromuscular deficits. Unequivocal role of alphaT in the prevention of these deficits is confounded by possible neurotoxic oxidant products generated, ex vivo in alphaT-depleted diets. The discovery that large doses of alphaT could ameliorate neuromuscular deficits, attributed to very low serum alphaT caused by mutations in either the microsomal...
