Studies of recurrent stone formers indicated that they have significantly increased urinary oxalate and decreased ascorbate excretions. Results of oral and intravenous administration of ascorbate indicate an enhanced production of oxalate from ascorbate in recurrent calcium stone formers as compared with normal persons and that most of this oxalate is generated in the gut.
TO THE EDITOR: Research has shown that intravenous, but not oral ascorbate, can produce concentrations selectively toxic to cancer cells, which has renewed the interest in ascorbate as therapy for cancer.1,2 The protocol was approved by the ethics committee of The Center for Improvement of Human Functioning, Wichita, KS. Written informed consent was obtained. Methods. We conducted a mini-pilot ...
BACKGROUND Ascorbate and glutathione play central roles in the defense against free radicals and oxidants that are implicated in chronic diseases. OBJECTIVE The objective was to determine the ability of vitamin C supplements to modulate the concentration of glutathione in human lymphocytes. DESIGN The effect of vitamin C supplements was determined in a sequential study with time points befo...
In recent years, increasing evidence has emerged demonstrating that high-dose ascorbate bears cytotoxic effects on cancer cells in vitro and in vivo, making ascorbate a pro-oxidative drug that catalyzes hydrogen peroxide production in tissues instead of acting as a radical scavenger. This anticancer effect of ascorbate is hypoxia-inducible factor-1α- and O2-dependent. However, whether the intra...

Objective: The objective was to determine the ability of vitamin C supplements to modulate the concentration of glutathione in human lymphocytes.

Liposomes have been intensively investigated as carriers for different applications in dermatology and cosmetics. Ascorbic acid has potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties preventing photodamage of keratinocytes; however, due to its instability and low skin penetration, an appropriate carrier is mandatory to obtain desirable efficacy. The present work investigates the ability of a s...
The extracellular fluid of the striatum contains a high level of ascorbate, an antioxidant vitamin known to play a key role in behavioral activation. We assessed the extracellular dynamics of ascorbate in R6/2 mice engineered to express the gene for Huntington's disease (HD), an autosomal dominant condition characterized by the loss of striatal neurons. Slow-scan voltammetry was used to measure...
A study has been made of the survival times of 100 terminal cancer patients who were given supplemental ascorbate, usually 10 g/day, as part of their routine management and 1000 matched controls, similar patients who had received the same treatment except for the ascorbate. The two sets of patients were in part the same as those used in our earlier study [Cameron, E. & Pauling, L. (1976) Proc. ...
The ascorbate content declined rapidly in broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica) florets, but not in the stem tissue, during post-harvest senescence. Ascorbate peroxidase (APX), ascorbate oxidase (AO), l-galactono-1,4-lactone dehydrogenase (GLDH), monodehydroascorbate reductase (MDAR), dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR), and glutathione reductase (GR) were investigated in gene expression a...
Ascorbate is a specific co-factor for a large family of enzymes known as the Fe- and 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases. These enzymes are found throughout biology and catalyze the addition of a hydroxyl group to various substrates. The proline hydroxylase that is involved in collagen maturation is well known, but in recent times many new enzymes and functions have been uncovered, including ...
