Words similar to alpha-tocopheryl
Example sentences for: alpha-tocopheryl
How can you use “alpha-tocopheryl” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
In the presence of gamma-tocopherol, the cellular levels of alpha-tocopheryl quinone were even higher than in its absence (Table 3).
These results are consistent with those in Table 3, which always indicate a higher intracellular concentration of alpha-tocopheryl quinone compared to gamma-tocopheryl quinone.
When macrophages were incubated tocopheryl quinones (see Figure 4), the cellular levels of alpha-tocopheryl quinone were always found to be higher than that of gamma-tocopheryl quinone (independent of the presence of gamma-tocopheryl quinone).
This latter point suggests that the low cellular levels of alpha-tocopherol (compared to gamma-tocopherol levels) shown in Figure 3A, as compared to Figure 3B, cannot be explained by the simple cellular oxidation of alpha-tocopherol to alpha-tocopheryl quinone (with no further catabolism or oxidation).
The data in Table 4clearly show that gamma-tocopheryl quinone was oxidized and/or catabolized more rapidly than alpha-tocopheryl quinone.
