[Structural basis of alpha-tocopherol succinate as an antineoplastic agent].

Hongwei Li, Kun Wu

Abstract

Alpha-tocopherol succinate is a redox-silent analog of alpha-tocopherol which is the major component of vitamin E. Recently, the research findings showed that, as a kind of pro-vitamin E, alpha-tocopherol succinate possesses antineoplastic activity which alpha-tocopherol lacks of. In this review paper, the link between the structure and antineoplastic activity of alpha-tocopherol succinate was focused.
