Ascorbate-and iron-driven redox activity of Dp44mT and emodin facilitates peroxidation of micelles and bicelles [PDF]

, 2021
BACKGROUND: Iron (Fe)-induced oxidative stress leads to reactive oxygen species that damage biomembranes, with this mechanism being involved in the activity of some anti-cancer chemotherapeutics. METHODS: Herein, we compared the effect of Fe complexes of

Evolution of substrate specificity in the Nucleobase-Ascorbate Transporter (NAT) protein family [PDF]

, 2018
L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is an essential metabolite in animals and plants due to its role as an enzyme co-factor and antioxidant activity. In most eukaryotic organisms, L-ascorbate is biosynthesized enzymatically, but in several major groups ...

Comparative Analysis of Antioxidant Accumulation under Cold Acclimation, Deacclimation and Reacclimation in Winter Wheat

Plants, 2022
Low temperature during cold acclimation (CA) leads to the accumulation of detrimental reactive oxygen species (ROS) in plant tissues, which are scavenged by antioxidants, such as ascorbate and glutathione.

Prospects for enhancement of the soluble antioxidants, ascorbate and glutathione [PDF]

, 2001
Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and the tripeptide thiol, glutathione gamma-glutamyl cysteinyl glycine (glutathione) are the major low molecular weight soluble antioxidants in plant cells.

Reduced Plasma Ascorbate and Increased Proportion of Dehydroascorbic Acid Levels in Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis

Life, 2021
Ascorbate functions as an electron donor and scavenges free radicals. Dehydroascorbic acid (DHA), the oxidized form of ascorbate, is generated as a result of these reactions.

Intravenous Vitamin C for Cancer Therapy – Identifying the Current Gaps in Our Knowledge

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
The use of intravenous vitamin C (IVC) for cancer therapy has long been an area of intense controversy. Despite this, high dose IVC has been administered for decades by complementary health care practitioners and physicians, with little evidence base ...
