Palm Tocotrienol-Rich Fraction Improves Vascular Proatherosclerotic Changes in Hyperhomocysteinemic Rats

Figure 2

Total plasma homocysteine level at weeks 0, 5, and 10 in rats fed high methionine diet (M) (week 0–10) and supplemented with either folate (8 mg/kg diet) or palm tocotrienol-rich fraction (TRF) (30, 60, or 150 mg/kg diets) for 5 weeks (weeks 6–10). The result is expressed as ( ). *Significantly different from the control at the same duration of treatment ( ), #significantly different from the methionine group at week 10 ( ), significantly different from week 0, and significantly different from week 5, respectively ( ).
