Cayman Mmp-2 Inhibitor Ii; Purity- Greater Than Or Equal To 98%;

α-Tocotrienol is an antioxidant and a form of vitamin E that has been found in rice bran and has neuroprotective properties.^,,, It reduces cell death induced by hydrogen peroxide, paraquat, S-nitrocysteine, SIN-1 (Item No. ), or L-buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine (BSO; Item No. ) in rat striatal cultures when used at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 10 µM. Cytosolic microinjection of α-tocotrienol prevents glutamate-induced cell death and phosphorylation of 12-lipoxygenase (12-LO) in HT4 neurons. It reduces glutamate-induced cytosolic and mitochondrial production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), accumulation of N-terminally truncated Bcl-xL (ΔN-Bcl-xL), and cell death in primary rat hippocampal neurons. α-Tocotrienol (50 mg/kg) reduces infarct size in a spontaneously hypertensive rat model of stroke induced by tandem right common carotid artery and middle cerebral artery occlusion.
