Abstract

Liposomes transferred α-tocopherol to bovine peripheral blood lymphocytes (BPBL) at 39°C. Phospholipid (❘ 14C❘ DMPC) transferred into BPBL at rates similar to ❘ 3H❘ α-tocopherol but with less efficiency than ❘ 3H❘ α-tocopherol from liposomes containing both labels. Liposomes containing unsaturated phospholipids DOPC and DLPC reduced but did not stop the rates of transfer of a-T to BPBL when compared to liposomes composed of DMPC. The presence of ❘ 14C❘ cholesterol in liposomes with ❘ 3H❘ α-tocopherol does not restrict but possibly enhances the α-tocopherol transfer into BPBL.
