Effects of α-tocopherol, α-tocotrienol, γ-tocotrienol and δ-tocotrienol on the induction of adrenocorticotropic hormone in serum of LPS-stimulated 6-wk-old BALB/c female mice. Three mice for each concentration were injected i. p. with various tocols in 5% triethylamine solution (0.2 mL/mouse) one hr prior to LPS challenge, after conditioning them for 14 days. Mice were bled after 2 h later to collect serum. Serum adrenocorticotropic hormone levels were determined according to published procedure (3). Values in a column with a different superscript letters are significantly different at P < 0.05, A = values; B = percentages.
