OBJECTIVE
In this clinical trial we studied whether oral supplementation with D-alpha-tocopherol (alpha-Toc), L-ascorbic acid (Asc), or alpha-Toc combined with Asc influenced the solar simulated radiation (SSR) induced skin inflammation in healthy volunteers.
METHODS
We investigated the following
The halo 6-fatty acid esters of L-ascorbic acid 3a, 3b and 6-fatty acid esters of L-ascorbic acid 5a-g were achieved from L-ascorbic acid 1. Compounds 3a, 3b and 5a-g were evaluated for anti-oxidant, anti-lipid peroxidation, and secretory phospholipase A(2) (sPLA(2)) inhibition in vitro, and sPLA(2)
In this study, the effects of 2-O--D-glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid (AA-2G), a natural ascorbic acid derivative from the fruits of Lycium barbarum, to treat the dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in mice were investigated. The results revealed that AA-2G had palliating effects on
Nickel sulfate stimulates inducible nitric oxide synthase (i-NOS) and increases serum nitric oxide concentration by overproduction of reactive nitrogen species due to nitrosative stress. The present study was undertaken to assess possible protective role of L-ascorbic acid as an antioxidant against
The free radicals nitric oxide and superoxide react to form peroxynitrite (ONOO-), a potent cytotoxic oxidant. This study was designed to evaluate whether addition of L-Ascorbic acid (AsC) into the culture medium decreases peroxynitrite-induced apoptosis in human intestinal epithelial (T84) and
Polystyrene-block-polyisoprene-block-polystyrene (SIS) has been used as biomaterials due to its soft and stable properties under physiological conditions. However, the thrombotic and inflammatory complications caused by SIS restrain its application as blood-contacting implant. To overcome this
Recently, we reported molecular characterization, localization and functional importance of Arabino-1, 4-lactone oxidase (ALO) enzyme from Leishmania donovani that catalyses the last step in ascorbate biosynthesis pathway. Vitamin C (l-ascorbic acid) is implicated in several crucial physiological
BACKGROUND
The epidermis is keratinized stratified squamous epithelium covered by hydro-lipid barrier. Vitamin C is a water-soluble antioxidant which protects skin from oxidative damage and rejuvenates photo-aged skin. There are different options of improving active substance penetration through the
The active oxygen produced from stimulated phagocytic cells emits luminol-dependent chemiluminescence (CL) upon reaction with luminol. So the active oxygen was measured by using the CL and the results of this were compared with those by the LDH-NADH method. Moreover, effects of nonsteroidal
We studied the effect of oral supplementation with L-ascorbic acid (50 mg /100 g body weight (BW) on nickel sulfate (2.0 mg/ 100 g BW, i.p)-induced lipid peroxidation and histopathology in the lung of Wister strain male albino rats. Lipid peroxide and glutathione levels and the activities of the
The roots of Ulmus macrocarpa Hance (Ulmaceae) have been used as an oriental traditional medicine for the treatment of inflammation, ulcers, cancers, and parasites. Activity guided isolation from the roots of U. macrocarpa yielded three flavonoids [catechin 7-O-β-D-apiofuranoside (1), (+)-catechin
Cattle can synthesize L-ascorbic acid (or Vitamin C) from either D-glucose or D-galactose through glucuronic acid pathway in the liver. L-Ascorbic acid present in cattle diet is almost totally destroyed by rumen microorganisms making them essentially dependent on its endogenous synthesis, which is
The modulating effect of 2-O--D-glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid (AA-2G), a natural derivative of ascorbic acid from the fruits of Lycium barbarum, on mice gut microbiota was investigated in the present study. It was found that AA-2G was able to adjust the structure of mice gut microbiota, elevated
Proinflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species (ROS) are known to be involved in the initiation and progression of osteoarthritis (OA). New evidence clarifying the correlation between ROS and inflammation has indicated that oxidative stress can up-regulate inflammatory cytokines. l-Ascorbic
Hydrogen gas can reduce cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) that are produced in inflamed tissues. Inspired by natural photosynthesis, this work proposes a multicomponent nanoreactor (NR) that comprises chlorophyll a, l-ascorbic acid, and gold nanoparticles that are encapsulated in a liposomal
