Smoking during pregnancy leads to decreased pulmonary function and increased respiratory illness in offspring. Our laboratory has previously demonstrated that many effects of smoking during pregnancy are mediated by nicotine. We now report that vitamin C supplementation can prevent some of the effects of maternal nicotine exposure on pulmonary function of offspring. Timed-pregnant rhesus monkey...
A large number of placebo-controlled studies have shown that vitamin C supplementation alleviates the symptoms of the common cold, but widespread skepticism that vitamin C could have any significant effect remains. One of the most influential common cold studies, published in 1975, was carried out by Thomas Karlowski et al, at the National Institutes of Health. Their placebo consisted of lactos...
The objectives of the present study were to evaluate the effect of normobaric and hyperbaric O2 (HBO) on plasma antioxidants and biomarkers of oxidative stress in plasma and urine and to investigate the effect of a 4-week vitamin C plus E supplementation on HBO-induced oxidative stress. Nineteen healthy men were exposed to HBO (100 % O2; 240 kPa) before and after 4 weeks' supplementation with 5...
OBJECTIVES Few in vitro studies have examined the participation of resistin, a recently discovered adipokine, in oxidative processes. We investigated whether in vivo treatment with the antioxidant vitamin C might affect resistin serum levels. DESIGN Randomized prospective open trial. SETTING San Giovanni Battista Hospital, Turin, Italy. PARTICIPANTS Eighty healthy individuals. INTERVENT...
In a double-blinded randomized controlled trial, we investigated the long-term effect of vitamin C supplementation on blood pressure. A total of 439 Japanese subjects with atrophic gastritis initially participated in the trial using vitamin C and beta-carotene to prevent gastric cancer. Before and on early termination of beta-carotene supplementation, 134 subjects dropped out of this trial, whe...
Background:Cigarette smoke has been reported to result in a depletion of body antioxidant vitamins. This study evaluated the association between smoking, dietary antioxidants and indices of oxidative stress in male cigarette smokers. Methods: Blood samples were collected at a baseline and at the end of 5 days supplementation with 500 mg vitamin C (two dosages/day) from 36 smokers and 43 nonsmok...
High doses of the antioxidant vitamin C prevent the increases in skeletal muscle mitochondrial biogenesis after exercise training. Since exercise training effects rely on the acute stimulus of each exercise bout, we examined whether vitamin C supplementation also attenuates the increases in skeletal muscle metabolic signaling and mitochondrial biogenesis in response to an acute exercise bout. M...
The article discusses vitamin C from the point of view of its supplementation with food and in the form of oral supplements. The dual action of vitamin C is connected with the presence of oxygen, which may reduce the amount of the vitamin in food products, influence thermal resistance, cause degradation and show an antioxidation effect. Vitamin C stimulates the immune cells and collagen synthes...
Neutrophils are the body's primary defenders against invading pathogens. These cells migrate to loci of infection where they engulf micro-organisms and subject them to an array of reactive oxygen species and antimicrobial proteins to effect killing. Spent neutrophils subsequently undergo apoptosis and are cleared by macrophages, thereby resolving the inflammatory episode. Neutrophils contain hi...
background: the role of oxidative stress in endosulfan-induced reproductive toxicity has been implicated. this study was performed to evaluate the possible protective effect of vitamins e and c, against endosulfan-induced reproductive toxicity in rats. methods: fifty adult male sprague–dawley rats were randomly divided into five groups (n=10 each). the groups included a control receiving vehicl...
