Ascorbic acid and melanogenesis

open access: yesBritish Journal of Dermatology, 1977
The ascorbic acid contents of skin, plasma and urine were estimated in 12 vitiligo cases, one albino and 10 normal subjects. All the estimations were repeated after saturation with ascorbic acid. There was no difference between the two groups with regard

Membrane Permeabilities of Ascorbic Acid and Ascorbate [PDF]

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2018
Vitamin C (VC)—a collective term for the different oxidation and protonation forms of ascorbic acid (AscH)—is an essential micronutrient that serves as (i) a potent antioxidant and (ii) a cofactor of a manifold of enzymatic processes. Its role in health is related to redox balance maintenance, which is altered in diseases such as obesity, cancer ...

Ascorbic acid modulates the structure of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence factor pyocyanin and ascorbic acid-furanone-30 combination facilitate biofilm disruption

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The production of pyocyanin by Pseudomonas aeruginosa increases its virulence, fitness and biofilm formation. Pyocyanin is also a redox molecule and we hypothesize that ascorbic acid being an antioxidant will interact with pyocyanin.
