γ-Tocotrienol / Akt Cancer Research Results

γ-Toc, γ-Tocotrienol: Click to Expand ⟱
Features:
γ‐Tocotrienol is one of the tocotrienol isomers in the vitamin E family.
γ‐Tocotrienol is naturally found in certain plant oils.

– Notable sources include palm oil, rice bran oil, barley, and annatto.
– Among these, annatto oil is often highlighted as a particularly rich source of tocotrienols (with γ‐tocotrienol being one of the major components).

• Relationship within the Vitamin E Family
– Tocotrienols, including the γ isomer, are one of the two classes of vitamin E compounds (the other being tocopherols).

Pathways:
-Inhibition of NF‑κB Signaling
-downregulate the PI3K/Akt signaling cascade
-inhibit STAT3 activation
-Cell Cycle Arrest
-Antioxidant and Anti‑Inflammatory Effects(reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels)
-may reduce angiogenic factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)

Source: HalifaxProj(inhibit)
Type:
Akt1 is involved in cellular survival pathways, by inhibiting apoptotic processes; Akt2 is an important signaling molecule in the insulin signaling pathway. It is required to induce glucose transport.

Inhibitors:
-Curcumin: downregulate AKT phosphorylation and signaling.
-Resveratrol
-Quercetin: inhibit the PI3K/AKT pathway.
-Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG)
-Luteolin and Apigenin: inhibit AKT phosphorylation
