Abstract
α-Tocopherol (vitamin E) levels in normal brain were lower in the cerebellum than in the cerebral cortex or basal ganglia. There was no difference in α-tocopherol levels in the cerebellum, basal ganglia, or cerebral cortex between control subjects and patients with Parkinson's disease.Keywords
