Due to the growing demand for foods with ergogenic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory capabilities, health and biological research has sought to understand the potential effects of molecules applied in various physiological and pathological contexts. In this issue, you will have access to a revolutionary study that investigated the relationship between alpha-tocopherol, the main isoform of Vitamin E, in a context that is highly damaging to epithelial cells, simulating conditions such as metabolic and neoplastic diseases. I can tell you that your linguistic repertoire and vocabulary will be challenged here, given that in the field of cell and molecular biology, technological advances are accompanied by a good dose of new words. Happy reading.
