It is interesting that the depletion of alpha-tocopherol from the medium during the uptake phase was always greater than that of gamma-tocopherol yet the cellular uptake of gamma-tocopherol was always greater than that of alpha-tocopherol.
The presence of alpha-tocopherol did not, however, markedly enhance the uptake of gamma-tocopherol.
In marked contrast, when macrophages were incubated with both alpha- and gamma-tocopherols together the cellular level of alpha-tocopherol were 70-80% (after 6 hr) that of gamma-tocopherol (Figure 3B).
This could, in part, contribute to the selective maintenance of alpha-tocopherol in plasma compared to gamma-tocopherol.
Although gamma-tocopherol promotes the cellular uptake of alpha-tocopherol, it clearly did not do so by dramatically protecting alpha-tocopherol from oxidation to alpha-tocopheryl quinone (with no further catabolism/oxidation of alpha-tocopheryl quinone).
