Trolox
description
Trolox is a hydrophilic and cell-permeable analog of vitamin E. It is a potent antioxidative used in biochemical applications to reduce oxidative stress and is the standard antioxidant used in antioxidant capacity assays. Trolox has been reported to enhance cardiac differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells and inhibit osteolytic bone metastasis through PGE2-dependent and independent mechanisms.
