Abstract:
γ-Tocotrienol(γ-T3)is a common phytochemical belonging to a major subclass of natural vitamin E,mainly de-rived from palm oil and rice bran.Compared to saturated tocopherol(TOC),the γ-T3 side chain contains unsaturated bonds and forms isoprene chains.γ-T3 has therapeutic activity for various chronic diseases with broad potential applications,especially in inhib-iting tumor proliferation and invasion.With deeply research,more and more evidence suggests that γ-T3 plays an important role in inhibiting cancer cell migration and metastasis,inducing tumor cell apoptosis,arresting cell cycle and regulating cancer-related sig-naling pathways.Therefore,this article will review the anti-cancer effects and mechanisms of γ-T3.
