“… vitamin E diet … acetylcholine (58.2 ± 10.5 vitamin E, n = 7 vs 84.4 ± 5.3 % standard, p < 0.05), and the combined vitamin E plus … to sodium nitroprusside (48.5 ± 4.1 in vitamin E + C, n = 8 vs 75.6 ± 3.9 % standard; p < 0.01).”
“Despite this ameliorating effect, vitamin E treatment caused an increase in contractile response to PE and a decrease in the relaxant response to Ach and SNP in arthritic rats.”
“In raised-tone preparations, relaxant responses to acetylcholine were enhanced in rabbits fed cholesterol plus vitamin E , reversing the reduction in responses measured in preparations from cholesterol-fed rabbits.”
