γ-Tocotrienol (Standard)

• UNSPSC Description:

  γ-Tocotrienol (Standard) is the analytical standard of γ-Tocotrienol. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. γ-Tocotrienol is an active form of vitamin E. γ-tocotrienol reverses the multidrug resistance (MDR) of breast cancer cells through the signaling pathway of NF-κB and P-gp. γ-Tocotrienol is also a novel radioprotector agent, can mitigate bone marrow radiation damage during targeted radionuclide treatment[1][2][3].
