Vitamin E prevents cell death after hypoxia reperfusion. FxnKD cardiomyocytes exposed to H/R revealed an enounced vulnerability as the cell death increased significantly. However, cells pre-treated with Vitamin E seemed to be protected. The numbers of TUNEL-positive cells were calculated and the apoptotic cell death was expressed as percentage ( ∗∗∗ p < 0.0005).
