beta-Tocotrienol (Standard) is the analytical standard of beta-Tocotrienol. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. beta-Tocotrienol is an isomer of vitamin E. beta-Tocotrienol is a less potent antioxidant than alpha-tocotrienol. beta-Tocotrienol can be found in the tocotrienol-rich fraction (TRF) of palm oil, which possesses anti-carcinogenic effects in vitro on human colon carcinoma and prostate cancer cells. beta-Tocotrienol inhibits the growth of A549 (GI50 = 1.38 microM) and U87MG (GI50 = 2.53 microM) cells. beta-Tocotrienol also induces apoptosis in cancer cells. beta-Tocotrienol can inhibit PD-L1 expression and mitigates PD-L1-mediated immune suppression in vitro and in vivo[1][2][3].
