  • Vitamin E Protects Developmental Gene Expression and Metabolic Networks in Zebrafish Embryos

    Creator:
    Head, Brian A.
    Abstract:
    Vitamin E (VitE) is necessary for vertebrate embryonic development. VitE prevents lipid peroxidation (LPO), which requires detoxification by cellular antioxidant systems subsequently involving reducing power derived from energy metabolism. Thus, VitE protects metabolic networks in the developing embryo and the integrated gene expression networks compensating for and impaired by LPO-induced...

  • Vitamin E and the alpha-tocopherol transfer protein during zebrafish embryogenesis

    Creator:
    Miller, Galen W.
    Abstract:
    Vitamin E was first described in 1922 as an unknown factor required for impregnated rats to carry their offspring to term. In fact, when vitamin E was chemically characterized it was given the name "tocopherol" derived from the Greek: tokos = childbirth; phero = to bear; and –ol, indicating an...
