1 | Fibrinogen is a co-antioxidant that supplements the vitamin E analog trolox in a model system. | Vitamin E | fibrinogen beta chain | Homo sapiens |
2 | We hypothesized that fibrinogen can act as a co-antioxidant to supplement vitamin E thereby eliminating its oxidative effect under prooxidant conditions. | Vitamin E | fibrinogen beta chain | Homo sapiens |
3 | CONCLUSIONS: The data indicated that fibrinogen did act as a co-antioxidant to supplement Trolox and eliminate its prooxidant effect, most probably, by directly quenching the phenoxyl radical, because unlike vitamin C, fibrinogen did not appear to recycle vitamin E. | Vitamin E | fibrinogen beta chain | Homo sapiens |
