protects against sleep-loss nerve damage:
The neuroprotective effect of vitamin E on
chronic sleep deprivation-induced memory impairment:
the role of oxidative stress.Behavioural Brain Research, 2012;226(1):205-10
"Sleep deprivation induces memory impairment,
and treatment with 100mg/kg vitamin E orally
prevented this impairment probably through
its antioxidant action in the hippocampus.
. chronic sleep deprivation induces a reduction in
hippocampus antioxidant markers including
glutathione (GSH), oxidized glutathione (GSSG)
and GSH/GSSG, glutathione peroxidase (GPx),
catalase, and superoxide dismutase (SOD)
. vitamin E normalized the GSH/GSSG ratio,
and the activity of catalase, SOD, and GPx .
