(2S, 4’S, 8’R)-α-Tocopherol

Controlled Product

CAS: 79434-82-5

Applications (2S, 4’S, 8’S)-α-Tocopherol is one of the 8 stereoisomers contained in the racemic mixture of synthetic α-Tocopherol, a vitamin E substitute. Being of the (2S) orientation it is generally less active than it’s (2R) counterpart, however this biodiscrimination is suggested to occur in the liver as it does not occur in the small intestine.

(2S, 4’S, 8’R)-α-Tocopherol

CAS: 79434-82-5

(2S, 4'S, 8'R)-α-Tocopherol is a natural form of vitamin E that is commonly found in Chinese medicinal herbs. It has been shown to have potent anticancer properties and can inhibit the growth of cancer cells by inducing apoptosis. This protein analog acts as an inhibitor of tumor cell kinase activity, which is essential for cell division and proliferation. (2S, 4'S, 8'R)-α-Tocopherol has been studied extensively for its ability to prevent cancer development and progression in humans. It has been found in human urine and may be used as a biomarker for cancer risk assessment. This compound has also been used in the development of novel kinase inhibitors that target specific kinases involved in cancer cell growth and proliferation.
