δ-Tocotrienol(CAT: R014115) is one of the four forms of tocotrienols, a subclass of the vitamin E family. Structurally, it differs from tocopherols by having an unsaturated isoprenoid side chain, which enhances its ability to integrate into cell membranes. δ-Tocotrienol is known for its potent antioxidant properties, protecting cells from oxidative damage by neutralizing free radicals. Research has shown that δ-Tocotrienol possesses strong anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and cholesterol-lowering effects. Its anticancer properties are of particular interest, as it induces apoptosis, inhibits cell proliferation, and reduces angiogenesis in various types of cancer cells. These diverse biological activities make δ-Tocotrienol a promising compound in nutraceutical and pharmaceutical research.
