13'-Carboxy-δ-tocopherol
13'-Carboxy-δ-tocopherol is a metabolite of long-chain vitamin E.13'-Carboxy-δ-tocopherol exhibits antiproliferative properties in cancer cells. 13'-Carboxy-δ-tocopherol activates caspase-3, caspase-9, causes PARP-1 cleavage, reduces mitochondrial membrane potential, increases ROS formation, and drives apoptosis.13'-Carboxy-δ-tocopherol can be used for the research of hepatocellular carcinoma.

13'-Carboxy-δ-tocopherol (Compound δ-13′-COOH) (24 h) potently inhibits the growth of HepG2 cells with an EC50 of 6.5 μM[1].
13'-Carboxy-δ-tocopherol (20 μM; 6 h) induces significant apoptosis in HepG2 cells, inducing cleavage of caspase-3, caspase-7, caspase-9, and PARP-1[1].
13'-Carboxy-δ-tocopherol (10 μM; 6 h) significantly increases intracellular ROS formation in HepG2 cells[1].
13'-Carboxy-δ-tocopherol (10-20 μM; 1 h) reduces mitochondrial membrane potential in HepG2 cells[1].
