Metabolism of 11 ′‐α‐ and 11′‐γ‐Tocomonoenols in HepG2 Cells Favors the γ‐Congener and Results Predominantly in Carboxymethylbutyl‐Hydroxychromans

ConclusionThis is the first evidence that both αT1 and γT1 follow the same sidechain degradation pathway and exert similar rates of metabolism than tocopherols. Therefore, investigation into the biological activities of tocomonoenols is warranted.
