Tocotrienols and α-tocopherol reduced acute and chronic lung lipid peroxidation induced by paraquat in rats
The effect of dietary tocotrienols and α-tocopherol acetate supplementation on paraquat-induced lung toxicity was investigated in rats. The administration of a single dose of paraquat (20 mg/kg, i.p.) to rats increased lung malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and produced lung edema. Tocotrienols (150 mg/k...
