Total ascorbate concentrations were determined in a 1 ml mixture containing 200 l of TCA extract, 62.5 mM of potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.4), 3.75 mM of EDTA, and 1.25 mM of dithiothreitol (DTT)
For anyone dealing with chronic low-grade inflammation which is essentially 99% of people past mid-adulthood this systemic effect may be more valuable than mere cosmetic improvements

3.2 Preclinical studies of ferroptosis in neurodegenerative diseases 3.2.1 Ferroptosis and alzheimers disease AD is a prevalent and progressive neurodegenerative disorder, characterized by the accumulation of extracellular -amyloid (A) plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles formed by hyperphosphorylated Tau protein, accompanied by excessive neuroinflammation, synaptic dysfunction, and neuronal loss, ultimately resulting in impairments in language, judgment, and executive function, and even leading to the loss of independent living ability ( 1-42 stimulation markedly suppressed the activation of the bone morphogenetic protein 6 (BMP6)/SMAD1 signaling pathway in BV2 microglial cells, resulting in the downregulation of SLC7A11, GPX4, FTL1, and FTH1 expression, increased ROS and MDA levels, and decreased GSH and SOD levels

For rosacea skin, vitamin C serum is very instrumental in helping control the inflammation of the disorder
A specific subset of WDRs, known as DDB1-CUL4-associated factors (DCAFs), act as substrate receptors for the CRL4 complex to recruit specific substrates to the complex, facilitating their ubiquitination and subsequent degradation 9,10
