Oxidation has been related to several diseases in humans. Indeed, to protect the body from high free radical damages, organism requires natural resources of antioxidant compounds, such as phenols, tocopherols (α, β, γ, and σ) which have important roles in the cell antioxidant defense system. In Mediterranean areas, olive oils and pepper fruits are considered among the best foods in a diet, which keeps on attracting the interest of scientists due to the health benefits linked with its consumption. The Olive oil and pepper fruits are among the most consumed nutrients in the Mediterranean diet; their richness in naturally powerful antioxidants, such as alpha-tocopherols, polyphenols, carotenoïds, and capsaicinoïds (specific of capsicum species), and monounsaturated fatty acids in olive and seed pepper oils, constitutes good health protection against oxidative damages and inflammation. Also, these phytochemicals shield and prevent the human body from many diseases such as cardiovascular, coronary, Alzheimer’s diseases, and cancers.
氧化与人类的几种疾病有关。事实上,为了保护身体免受高自由基的伤害,生物体需要天然的抗氧化化合物资源,如酚类、生育酚(α、β、γ和σ),它们在细胞抗氧化防御系统中起着重要作用。在地中海地区,橄榄油和胡椒水果被认为是饮食中最好的食物,由于食用橄榄油和胡椒水果对健康有益,因此一直吸引着科学家的兴趣。橄榄油和胡椒水果是地中海饮食中消耗最多的营养素;它们丰富的天然强抗氧化剂,如α -生育酚、多酚、carotenoïds和capsaicinoïds(辣椒品种特有),以及橄榄油和辣椒籽油中的单不饱和脂肪酸,构成了对抗氧化损伤和炎症的良好健康保护。此外,这些植物化学物质保护和预防人体免受许多疾病,如心血管疾病、冠状动脉疾病、阿尔茨海默病和癌症。

Pharmaceutical Applications of Vitamin E TPGS 维生素E TPGS的医药应用
Pub Date : 2021-08-30 DOI: 10.5772/intechopen.97474

D-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol succinate (Vitamin E TPGS) has been approved as a safe pharmaceutical adjuvant by FDA, and several drug delivery systems (DDS) based on TPGS have been developed. TPGS properties as a P-gp inhibitor, solubilizer/absorption and permeation enhancer in drug delivery and TPGS-related formulations such as nanocrystals, nanosuspensions, tablets/solid dispersions, vaccine system adjuvant, nutritional supplement, film plasticizer, anticancer reagent, and so on, are discussed in this review. Consequenly, TPGS can inhibit ATP-dependent P-glycoprotein activity and act as a potent excipient that promotes the efficiency of delivery and the therapeutic effect of drugs. Inhibition of P-gp occurs through mitochondria-dependent inhibition of the P-gp pump. Many of the latest studies address the use of TPGS for many poorly water-soluble or permeable drugs in the manufacture of nanodrugs or other formulations. In addition, it has been reported that TPGS shows a robust improvement in chylomicron secretion at low concentrations and improves intestinal lymphatic transport, which would also boost the potential of drug absorption. It also indicates that there are still many problems facing clinical translation of TPGS-based nanomedicines, requiring a more deep evaluation of TPGS properties and a future-based delivery method.
d -生育酚基聚乙二醇琥珀酸酯(维生素E TPGS)已被FDA批准为一种安全的药物佐剂,并已开发出几种基于TPGS的给药系统(DDS)。本文综述了TPGS作为P-gp抑制剂、增溶剂/吸收剂和渗透增强剂在药物传递中的性能,以及TPGS在纳米晶体、纳米悬浮液、片剂/固体分散体、疫苗系统佐剂、营养补充剂、薄膜增塑剂、抗癌试剂等相关制剂中的应用。因此,TPGS可以抑制atp依赖性p -糖蛋白活性,并作为一种有效的赋形剂,促进药物的递送效率和治疗效果。P-gp的抑制是通过线粒体依赖性的P-gp泵抑制而发生的。许多最新的研究解决了在纳米药物或其他配方的制造中,将TPGS用于许多水溶性或渗透性差的药物。此外,有报道称,TPGS在低浓度下可显著改善乳糜微粒分泌,改善肠道淋巴运输,从而提高药物吸收潜力。这也表明基于TPGS的纳米药物的临床转化仍面临许多问题,需要更深入地评估TPGS的性质和基于未来的递送方法。

Vitamin E in Hemodialysis Patients 血液透析患者的维生素E
Pub Date : 2018-10-24 DOI: 10.5772/INTECHOPEN.78792
A. Rusu
End-stage renal disease patients treated with hemodialysis are characterized by a special diet, increased oxidative stress, cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, as well as many other complications such as inflammation-malnutrition syndrome, muscle cramps, and anemia. Worldwide efforts are focused on reducing hemodialysis complications to increase survival in these patients. In vitro and in vivo studies proved that vitamin E has many beneficial effects such as: decreases reactive oxygen species synthesis, improves antioxidant defense system, inhibits lipids peroxidation and reduces atherosclerosis, and ameliorates anemia treatment. Mechanisms of action are complex and not fully understood. However, there are particularities in regards of vitamin E intake, metabolism, and clearance in patients treated with hemodialysis. Supplementation of vitamin E in these patients has been intensively studied, and it is still under debate. Oral administration and vitamin E-coated membranes for dialysis have been tried. Clinical practice guidelines tried to underline when and how much vitamin E to be given to be safe and costbeneficial. The current chapter aims to synthesize all these issues.
接受血液透析治疗的终末期肾病患者的特点是特殊饮食、氧化应激增加、心血管发病率和死亡率,以及许多其他并发症,如炎症-营养不良综合征、肌肉痉挛和贫血。全世界都在努力减少血液透析并发症,以提高这些患者的生存率。体外和体内研究证明,维生素E具有减少活性氧合成、改善抗氧化防御系统、抑制脂质过氧化和减少动脉粥样硬化、改善贫血治疗等多种有益作用。作用机制很复杂,尚未完全了解。然而,在接受血液透析治疗的患者中,维生素E的摄入、代谢和清除方面存在特殊性。在这些患者中补充维生素E已经被深入研究,但仍在争论中。口服给药和维生素e包被膜透析已经尝试过。临床实践指南试图强调什么时候以及服用多少维生素E才安全且经济实惠。本章旨在综合所有这些问题。

The Hepatic Fate of Vitamin E 维生素E的肝脏命运
Pub Date : 2018-10-24 DOI: 10.5772/INTECHOPEN.79445

Vitamin E is a lipophilic vitamin and thus is naturally occurring mainly in high-fat plant products such as oils, nuts, germs, seeds, and in lower amounts in vegetables and some fruits. The term “vitamin E” comprises different structures that are classified as tocopherols, tocotrienols, and “vitamin E-related structures.” Vitamin E follows the same route in the body like other lipophilic substances. In brief, vitamin E is absorbed in the intestine, packaged into chylomicrons together with other lipophilic molecules, and distributed via lymph and blood in the body. As the liver is the central organ in lipoprotein metabolism, it is also essential for the uptake, distribution, metabolism, and storage of vitamin E. Based on the current knowledge on that field, the physiological, nonphysiological, and pathophysiological factors influencing the hepatic handling of vitamin E, verifying the crucial role of the liver in vitamin E homeostasis, are described.
维生素E是一种亲脂性维生素,因此主要天然存在于高脂肪植物产品中,如油、坚果、细菌、种子,蔬菜和一些水果中含量较低。术语“维生素E”包含不同的结构,分为生育酚、生育三烯醇和“维生素E相关结构”。维生素E和其他亲脂物质一样,在体内遵循同样的途径。简而言之,维生素E在肠道被吸收,与其他亲脂分子一起包装成乳糜微粒,并通过淋巴和血液在体内分布。由于肝脏是脂蛋白代谢的中心器官,它对维生素E的摄取、分布、代谢和储存也至关重要。基于该领域的现有知识,本文描述了影响肝脏处理维生素E的生理、非生理和病理生理因素,验证了肝脏在维生素E稳态中的关键作用。

Vitamin E and Influenza Virus Infection 维生素E和流感病毒感染
Pub Date : 2018-10-24 DOI: 10.5772/INTECHOPEN.80954
M. Mileva, A. Galabov
Influenza is an infectious disease causing huge medical and economic losses. Influenza pathogenesis is associated with two processes in the human body: (i) lung damage due to viral replication in the columnar ciliary epithelium of bronchi and bronchioles and (ii) inflammatory burst inducing an increase in reactive oxygen species generation that causes extensive damage in cellular membranes of the small vessels. The oxidative stress in influenza virus-infected organism provokes free-radical oxidation of unsaturated lipid chains in the cell membranes. As vitamin E is a lipid-soluble substance and possesses a hydrophobic tail, it tends to accumulate within lipid membranes. There, it acts as the most important chain breaker, reacting with lipid peroxyl radicals much faster than they can react with adjacent fatty acid side chains. Among the antioxidants tested in influenza virus infections in mice, vitamin E occupies the leading position because of its efficacy in preventing oxidative damage through its free-radical scavenging activity. Although vitamin E is not possessing specific antiviral action, its antioxidant effect probably plays important role in lung and liver protection. Attention should be paid to the synergistic character of antiviral effect of the combination vitamin E and oseltamivir. Vitamin E could be recommended as a component in multitarget influenza therapy.
流感是一种传染病,造成巨大的医疗和经济损失。流感的发病机制与人体的两个过程有关:(i)由于病毒在支气管和细支气管柱状纤毛上皮内复制而造成的肺损伤;(ii)炎症爆发导致活性氧生成增加,导致小血管细胞膜广泛损伤。流感病毒感染机体的氧化应激引起细胞膜中不饱和脂链的自由基氧化。由于维生素E是一种脂溶性物质,并且具有疏水尾巴,它倾向于在脂质膜内积聚。在那里,它作为最重要的断链剂,与脂质过氧自由基反应的速度比与邻近脂肪酸侧链反应的速度快得多。在流感病毒感染小鼠的抗氧化剂测试中,维生素E因其通过自由基清除活性防止氧化损伤而占据领先地位。虽然维生素E不具有特异的抗病毒作用,但其抗氧化作用可能对肺和肝有重要的保护作用。应注意维生素E与奥司他韦联用抗病毒作用的协同特性。维生素E可以推荐作为多靶点流感治疗的一个组成部分。

γ-Tocotrienol Reversal of Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition in Human Breast Cancer Cells is Mediated through a Suppression of Canonical Wnt and Hedgehog Signaling γ-生育三烯醇通过抑制典型Wnt和Hedgehog信号传导介导人乳腺癌细胞上皮向间质转化的逆转

γ-Tocotrienol, a natural isoform within the vitamin E family of compounds, displays potent antiproliferative, apoptotic and reversal of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) activity against breast cancer using treatment doses that have little or no effect on normal cell viability. EMT is a route by which epithelial cells undergo various biochemical alterations leading to the acquisition of mesenchymal traits. Several aberrant signaling pathways are involved in EMT-dependent cancer metastasis. Specifically, dysregulation of the canonical Wnt and Hedgehog pathways are intimately involved in promoting breast cancer EMT and metastasis. Therefore, studies were conducted to examine effects of γ-tocotrienol on Wnt and Hedgehog signaling. Results from these studies demon- strate that γ-tocotrienol significantly inhibits canonical Wnt and Hedgehog signaling by inhibiting receptors, co-receptors and ligand expression, as well as inhibiting expression of cytosolic and nuclear signaling proteins within these pathways. Additional studies showed that γ-tocotrienol treatment increased the expression of negative regulators of both the Wnt and Hedgehog pathways. These findings demonstrate that γ-tocotrienol reversal of EMT is mediated, at least in part, through the inhibition of canonical Wnt and Hedgehog signaling, and strongly suggest that this form of vitamin E may provide significant benefit in the prevention and treatment of metastatic breast cancer. and signal transduction. These findings provide evidence to explanation the wide range of inhibitory ligand, FZD7/LRP6 complex activation, DVL2 and cyclin D1 and a corresponding increase in Naked 1 level. Additionally, γ-tocotrienol inhibits Hedgehog signaling by decreasing the expression of Shh ligand, PTCH2, Smo, GSK3β, and Gli1 associated with a corresponding increase in SUFU levels. Several other cytosolic and nuclear proteins were minimized which can ultimately lead to a suppression in gene expression associated with EMT.
γ-生育三烯醇(γ-Tocotrienol)是维生素E家族化合物中的一种天然异构体,使用对正常细胞活力影响很小或没有影响的治疗剂量,对乳腺癌显示出有效的抗增殖、凋亡和逆转上皮-间质转化(EMT)活性。EMT是上皮细胞经历各种生化改变从而获得间充质性状的途径。几种异常信号通路参与emt依赖性癌症转移。具体来说,典型Wnt和Hedgehog通路的失调与促进乳腺癌EMT和转移密切相关。因此,我们研究了γ-生育三烯醇对Wnt和Hedgehog信号传导的影响。这些研究结果表明,γ-生育三烯醇通过抑制受体、共受体和配体的表达,以及抑制细胞质和核信号蛋白的表达,显著抑制典型的Wnt和Hedgehog信号通路。进一步的研究表明,γ-生育三烯醇处理增加了Wnt和Hedgehog通路负调控因子的表达。这些研究结果表明,γ-生育三烯醇逆转EMT至少部分是通过抑制典型Wnt和Hedgehog信号传导介导的,并强烈提示这种形式的维生素E可能在预防和治疗转移性乳腺癌方面提供显著的益处。还有信号转导。这些发现为抑制配体、FZD7/LRP6复合物激活、DVL2和cyclin D1以及Naked 1水平相应升高提供了证据。此外,γ-生育三烯醇通过降低Shh配体、PTCH2、Smo、GSK3β和Gli1的表达来抑制Hedgehog信号传导,这与SUFU水平的相应增加有关。其他一些细胞质和核蛋白被最小化,最终导致与EMT相关的基因表达受到抑制。

化学诱导的癌变会产生影响标准细胞行为的突变。以亲电性攻击dna结果为主要特征。一旦给哺乳动物服用外源药物,它们就会在肝脏中通过细胞色素P450 (CYP450)酶进行代谢激活,将它们转化为有毒化合物,产生氧化应激(OS),并在氧化位点附近爆发亲电性物质。cyp450是产生自旋相关自由基对(RP)中间体的电子载体蛋白。极低频电磁场(ELF-EMF)可以调节种群的单线态和三重态自旋翻转转换,改变其代谢过程中的产物形成。实验中,我们用化学方法诱导肝癌,我们发现elf - emfini能抑制肿瘤前病变的数量和面积50%以上。此外,从理论上讲,我们建立了一个基于Haberkorn近似中RP机制(RPM)的量子力学模型来解释ELF-EMF的细胞保护作用。现就felf - emf在肝癌发生中的作用机制研究现状作一综述。
