Abstract: |
The molecular and the biosynthetic pathway of tocotrienol were briefly introduced. And the powerful neuroprotective,anti-cancer,cholesterol lowering and antioxidation properties of tocotrienols as well as the strategies of metabolic engineering used in elevating biosynthesis level of the tocotrienols in plants were mainly reviwed. |
Key words: tocotrienol biosynthesis neuroprotection anticancer function plant metabolic engineering |
