These data are in agreement with our results in LT muscle,
which showed a significant increase of the expression at the beginning
of α-tocopherol intake (VE10d) and a decrease in the other treatments.
These novel transcriptional activities of α-tocopherol reveal that α-
tocopherol may regulate lipid metabolism in cells through SREBP1,
which may have selective roles for either cholesterol or fatty acid
metabolism (Magana et al., 2000; Valastyan et al., 2008).
