This vitamin is involved in immunity and host susceptibility to infection [112].\nA positive association was demonstrated between plasma vitamin E and cell-mediated immune responses, while a negative association was observed among plasma vitamin E and the risk of infections in healthy adults over 60 years of age [8].

The immune response mechanisms in which vitamin E is involved are as follows: (i) maintains or improves the cytotoxic activity of NK cells [82] and reduces prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production by the inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) activity, mediated through decreasing of nitric oxide production [64, 112, 113]; (ii) the improvement of immune synapse formation in naive T cells, increasing the percentage of memory experienced with the antigen [112]; (iii) the modulation of Th1/Th2 balance.

The role of this vitamin in the prevention of infections such as influenza has been discussed, but more controlled studies in humans are needed [114].\nNotably, it is accepted that vitamin E may exert its immune-enhancing effects by scavenging oxygen species to reduce oxidative stress [112] and it may induce anti-inflammatory effects [113].
