A tocotrienol that is chroman-6-ol substituted by methyl groups at positions 2, 5, 7 and 8 and a farnesyl chain at position 2. It has been found in palm oil derived from Elaeis guineensis.
tocotrienol, alpha inhibits the reaction [CYP3A4 protein results in increased hydroxylation of Testosterone]; tocotrienol, alpha inhibits the reaction [CYP3A4 protein results in increased oxidation of Lithocholic Acid] tocotrienol, alpha results in increased expression of CYP3A4
CYP3A5 gene polymorphism affects the susceptibility to tocotrienol, alpha tocotrienol, alpha inhibits the reaction [CYP3A5 protein results in increased hydroxylation of Testosterone]; tocotrienol, alpha inhibits the reaction [CYP3A5 protein results in increased oxidation of Lithocholic Acid]
tocotrienol, alpha binds to and results in increased activity of NR1I2 protein; tocotrienol, alpha inhibits the reaction [NR1I2 protein binds to NCOR1 protein]
