Vitamin E, an essential nutrient for humans and animals reproduction, is a lipid-soluble antioxidant. Vitamin E can protect lipids against oxidative stress, and rescue the glutathione (GSH) depletion-induced hypersensitivity of cells to H2O2. Supplementation with Vitamin E increases its levels in cerebrospinal fluid and plasma, as well as reduces Aβ levels, thus beneficially influences oxidative stress in Alzheimer's disease. Vitamin E also has anti-aging effects[1][2][3][4].

Target	ROS, Amyloid-β[1][4]
In Vitro	Vitamin E (5-80 μM) rescues the GSH depletion-induced hypersensitivity of rabbit lens epithelial cells (RLEC) to H2O2[2].
In Vivo	Vitamin E (2 I.U./g diet; PO; daily, for 8 months) suppresses brain lipid peroxidation and significantly reduces Aβ levels and amyloid plaque deposition[4]. Animal Model: Tg2576 mice (transgenic model of Alzheimer's disease)[4] Dosage: 2 I.U./g diet Administration: PO; daily, for 8 months (from 5 month-old to 13 month-old) Result: Suppressed brain lipid peroxidation and significantly reduces Aβ levels and amyloid plaque deposition when it is administered early during the evolution of their disease phenotype.
