This produces a lipid peroxidation chain reaction and results in disease. 44 Vitamin Ε and free radical formation Problems caused by uncontrolled lipid peroxidation The cell damage and pathological changes occasioned by a lipid peroxidation chain reaction will depend on the magnitude of the reaction, the function of the damaged membrane and associated molecules and the function of the cell. As previously stated, lipid peroxidation is mainly a problem in subcellular membranes. The resulting pathology can therefore be related to the effects of this damage on individual components of the membrane or its environs or the collective effects of the summed damage.

The reasons for this are that although it showed such promise as an antisterility vitamin and an anti-myopathic vitamin in rats, rabbits and guinea pigs, the original experimental animals used by early workers in this field (see review by Mason, 1980), it failed quite miserably when tested in h u m a n s for similar functions.
