The presence of dehydroascorbate and dehydroascorbate reductase in plant tissues [PDF]
Ascorbate, an essential antioxidant in plant tissues, is oxidised to dehydroascorbate (DHA) via successive reversible single electron transfers with monodehydroascorbate (MDHA) as a free radical intermediate. Rapid regeneration of ascorbate from its oxidised forms is required to support antioxidant capacity.

Dehydroascorbate and dehydroascorbate reductase are phantom indicators of oxidative stress in plants [PDF]
In many physiological studies dehydroascorbate (DHA) reductase is regarded as one of the chloroplast enzymes involved in the protection against oxidative stress. Here, evidence is presented that plant cells do not possess a specific DHA reductase. The DHA reductase activities measured in plant extracts are due to side reactions of proteins containing ...

The interplay between virus infection and water-related stress is mediated by the plant metabolism of ascorbic acid. [PDF]
Summary Plants are often subjected to environmental variations in the context of infection such that virus‐induced and abiotic stresses co‐occur. One such environmental variation is water stress, which strongly impacts plant fitness. Although there is ample evidence of the beneficial effects of plant viruses under drought, the consequences of infection

Dehydroascorbate Reductase Affects Leaf Growth, Development, and Function [PDF]
Abstract Ascorbic acid (Asc) is a major antioxidant in plants that detoxifies reactive oxygen species (ROS) and maintains photosynthetic function. Expression of dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR), responsible for regenerating Asc from an oxidized state, regulates the cellular Asc redox state, which in turn affects cell responsiveness and ...

Cellular oxidants are primarily managed by the thioredoxin reductase-1 (TrxR1)- and glutathione reductase (Gsr)-driven antioxidant systems. In mice having hepatocyte-specific co-disruption of TrxR1 and Gsr (TrxR1/Gsr-null livers), methionine catabolism ...

The mutualistic fungus Piriformospora indica protects barley roots from a loss of antioxidant capacity caused by the necrotrophic pathogen Fusarium culmorum [PDF]
Fusarium culmorum causes root rot in barley (Hordeum vulgare), resulting in severely reduced plant growth and yield. Pretreatment of roots with chlamydospores of the mutualistic root-colonizing basidiomycete Piriformospora indica (Agaricomycotina ...

Imaging glutathione depletion in the rat brain using ascorbate-derived hyperpolarized MR and PET probes. [PDF]
Oxidative stress is a critical feature of several common neurologic disorders. The brain is well adapted to neutralize oxidative injury by maintaining a high steady-state concentration of small-molecule intracellular antioxidants including glutathione in
