Preservation of cyclophosphamide-compromised fertility in female mice by tocotrienol supplementation / Hazar Shakir Saleh

Cyclophosphamide (CPA) chemotherapy has been known to cause ovarian failure. CPA therapy leads to infertility via oxidative stress induced apoptosis of ovarian cells. Tocotrienols (T3), vitamin E isoform, is a much more potent antioxidant compared to tocopherols. T3 is a potent antioxidant and anti-...
