Tocotrienol Rich Palm Oil Extract Is More Effective Than Pure Tocotrienols at Improving Endothelium-Dependent Relaxation in the Presence of Oxidative Stress
Table 2
The effect of various combinations of α-tocopherol (TC) and α-, δ-, and γ-tocotrienols (T3) on ACh-induced endothelium-dependent and SNP-induced endothelium-independent relaxation of rat aortae in the presence of pyrogallol- (P-) induced oxidative stress.

Tocotrienol isomers and α-tocopherol were present in the proportions found in tocomin (i.e., is α-T3- 20%, δ-T3 10%, and γ-T3 50% and α-TC 20%). #Significantly different to control . Significantly different to pyrogallol . Sidak’s multiple comparison test. |
