I. Introduction

Vitamin E, a widely recognized family of nutrients, contains a variety of biologically active compounds, the best known of which is alpha-tocopherol. As one of the isomers of vitamin E, D-γ-tocopherol not only has the basic functions of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunity regulator, but also shows a more unique mechanism of action in some aspects, which has become a hot spot of scientific research.

II. Biological Activity

1. Antioxidant: a shield to protect cell health In the complex physiological process of human body, oxidative stress is an unavoidable phenomenon, which will lead to cell damage, accelerate aging, and even cause a variety of chronic diseases.D-γ-tocopherol by virtue of its powerful antioxidant capacity, can neutralize free radicals in the body, reduce lipid peroxidation, thus protecting cell membranes, DNA and proteins from oxidative damage. This protective effect not only helps to slow down the aging process, but also enhances the function of the immune system and improves the body's resistance. Cardiovascular protection: Cardiovascular disease is currently the number one health killer worldwide. Studies have found that D-gamma-tocopherol plays an important role in maintaining cardiovascular health. It reduces oxidized levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL, or “bad” cholesterol), reducing the risk of atherosclerosis. In addition, D-gamma tocopherol further promotes the health of the cardiovascular system by modulating the inflammatory response and improving vascular endothelial function. Together, these mechanisms of action constitute the unique benefits of D-γ-tocopherol in the prevention of cardiovascular disease.

2. Protection of the nervous system: With age, the nervous system gradually ages, and the incidence of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease rises. D-γ-Tocopherol, with its powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory capabilities, can effectively reduce oxidative stress and inflammatory response to neurons, protecting them from damage. It also promotes neuronal growth and repair, improves cognitive function, and provides new ideas for the prevention and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

3. Cancer prevention: The occurrence of cancer is related to a variety of factors, among which oxidative stress and chronic inflammation are considered to be important drivers. D-γ-tocopherol, through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, is able to inhibit the growth and proliferation of cancer cells, and promote apoptosis, thus exerting anti-cancer effects. In addition, it has been found that Vitamin E is able to regulate the expression of genes associated with cancer development, further enhancing its anti-cancer effects. Although the current study is still in the preliminary stage, the potential of D-γ-tocopherol in cancer prevention and treatment should not be ignored!
