How can you use “alpha-tocopherol” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The levels of alpha-tocopherol in human plasma are, nevertheless, about four times higher than those of 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).
In addition, we found that presence of gamma-tocopherol dramatically increased the cellular uptake of alpha-tocopherol.
This could, in part, contribute to the selective maintenance of alpha-tocopherol in plasma compared to gamma-tocopherol.
When macrophages were incubated with alpha-tocopherol or gamma-tocopherol individually, the macrophage level of alpha-tocopherol was just 10-20% of that of gamma-tocopherol (Figure 3A).
