Significance: 

This suggests that Vitamin-E, by decreasing the expression of its target gene, it may increase the expression of tumor suppressor p53.  Thereby, it may inhibit  cancer cell proliferation. Thus, pharmacological formulations encompassing α-Tocopherol or its analogues may be used to inhibit the progression of tumors.
