Overview

This product has been discontinued.





Enhances the immune response and induces cellular differentiation and/or growth inhibition. VES has been shown to modulate adenylate cyclase and cAMP-dependent proteins, inhibit protein kinase C activity, bind to a cellular vitamin E binding protein, suppress c-myc and c-H-ras oncogene expression, and regulate TGF-β protein production. Also shown to induce apoptosis in RL cells. Exhibits antioxidant properties.

Revision11-January-2010 RFH
Synonymsα-Tocopheryl Succinate, VES
DescriptionEnhances the immune response and induces cellular differentiation and/or growth inhibition. Potent and cell-permeable inhibitor of neuroblastoma cells, murine melanoma cells, avian lymphoid cells, human HL-60 promyelocytic leukemia cells, and several human breast carcinoma cell lines. VES has been shown to modulate adenylate cyclase and cAMP-dependent protein, inhibit protein kinase C activity, bind to cellular vitamin E binding protein, suppress c-myc and c-H-ras oncogene expression, and regulate TGFβ protein production. Also shown to induce apoptosis in RL cells. Prevents oxidative damage.
