  • our results provide evidence to suggest that acute exercise induces gene-specific DNA hypomethylation in human skeletal muscle
  • Our results suggest that DNA methylation is a component of the exercise-induced effect on expression of these genes.
  • Caffeine exposure decreased promoter methylation of Pgc-1α, Tfam, Mef2a, Cs, and Pdk4

  • the effect of exercise on DNA methylation in human skeletal muscle and provide evidence that acute exercise alters promoter methylation of exercise-responsive genes in a dose-dependent manner
  • DNA methylation was unaltered 48 hr after a 3-week exercise training program, whereas RNA expression of PGC-1α and TFAM promoters was elevated (data not shown), further suggesting that DNA hypomethylation is a transient mechanism involved in mRNA synthesis
  • Our findings that ionomycin, AICAR, or ROS production increased mRNA expression without altering promoter methylation may support the notion that DNA methylation does not exclusively control exercise-induced gene expression
  • acute exercise leads to transient changes in DNA methylation in adult skeletal muscle
  • Nathan Goodyear on 03 Oct 17
     
    Small study finds acute exercise is associated with epigenetic alteration of muscle through methylation.  This study found a hypomethylation of the genes PGC-1alpha, PDK4, and PPAR-delta with a respondent increase in expression.  The methylation activity was in the promoter region of these genes.

  • effects of high-dose vitamin C on cytokine levels in cancer patients, finding decreased amounts of the cytokines Interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1 alpha), IL-2, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) after high-dose vitamin C infusion
  • when vitamin C was supplemented with vitamin E in healthy adults, it increased the production of cytokines IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha
  • vitamin C acts to modulate the levels of cytokines to prevent them from fluctuating in either direction
  • vitamin C also acts as an important antioxidant to the cells of the immune system.
  • human leukocytes, neutrophils, in particular, possess the ability to transport the oxidized form of vitamin C across its membrane to use as a defense mechanism against ROS produced during an immune response
  • Vitamin C also can recover other endogenous antioxidants in the body such as vitamin E and glutathione, returning them to their active state
  • vitamin C can decrease the activation of NF-kB
  • can reduce harmful nitrogen-based compounds such as N-nitrosamines and nitrosamides, both of which are carcinogenic 
  • subjects taking oral vitamin C supplementation saw a 60% to 90% reduction in oxidative stress compared to a placebo control
  • subjects infused with vitamin C alone had a 516% increase in glutathione levels compared to subjects not provided the 500 mg daily supplementation
  • hydroxylating proline and lysine
  • mature and stabilize the tissue of a healing wound
  • healing
  • oral surgery
  • improved soft tissue regeneration
  • vitamin C increases the mRNA levels of type I and type III collagen in the human dermis
  • Studies have demonstrated that those with low levels of vitamin C are at a significantly higher risk of respiratory infection compared to those with normal levels
  • viral cold duration was reduced by about 8% in adults and 13.5% in children using prophylactic daily doses of 200 mg of oral vitamin C

  • improvements in oxygen saturation and decreased IL-6 levels (a marker of inflammation) in the treatment group compared to the control group
  • 8 g doses of oral vitamin C
  • there is a negative correlation between age and serum levels of vitamin C
  • Patients with COVID-19 will likely also experience depletion in serum levels of vitamin C as a direct result of the upregulation of the immune system to combat the infection
  • Colunga et al. suggested that oral vitamin C can be combined with oral Quercetin, an antiviral flavonoid, to improve Quercetin’s ability to block viral membrane fusion of SARS-CoV-2
  • high doses of 1-2 g/day of oral vitamin C could prevent other upper respiratory infections
  • It appears vitamin C supplementation by itself does not provide a striking benefit in preventing COVID-19 infection for those without a deficiency

      Flawed statement. What is normal? Vitamin D. Many variables effect levels and dose, including the two compartment kinetics and absorption.
  • Hiedra et al. were able to show decreases in inflammatory biomarkers, such as D-dimer and ferritin
  • some evidence to support that prophylactic use of vitamin C helps reduce the severity of respiratory infection symptoms once a subject has already been infected
  • oral vitamin C in combination with zinc provided the largest amount of antibody titers 42 days
  • linear relationship between days of vitamin C therapy and survival duration
  • other studies were unable to find any definitive improvement concerning therapy with vitamin C

      Either these studies are designed to fail or the authors are lacking some basic understanding of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics with vitamin C.
  • Fowler et al. aimed to see if a high-dose vitamin C infusion would benefit patients affected by ARDS, but they were unable to conclude that vitamin C infusion, compared to a placebo, could decrease vascular inflammation and damage in ARDS

      They are kind of make the point from my earlier note.
  • continuous vitamin C infusion at a rate of 60 mg/kg/day for four days decreased the need for mechanical ventilation and vasopressor use but had no significant effect on overall mortality

      Again, designed to fail or ignorance designed the study which failed
  • Carr et al. suggested that high-dose IV vitamin C is most effective when treating sepsis as septic patients receiving the normal daily recommendations through diet still showed decreased vitamin C levels
  • High-dose IV vitamin C treatment has also been shown by Kakodkar et al. to decrease syndecan-1, an endothelial glycocalyx that contributes to mortality in septic patients
  • combined with hydrocortisone and thiamine, septic patients treated with 1.5 g of IV vitamin C every six hours showed a distinct decrease in their SOFA scores and none of the patients treated developed organ failure

  • reduced overall mortality
  • reduced overall mortality
  • propose the use for high-dose vitamin C to aid in the treatment of septic shock-induced hypotension
  • treatment of severe sepsis using a high dose (up to 200 mg/kg/day) of IV vitamin C was explored in phase I, a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial by Fowler et al. [75]. Their findings included a reduction in SOFA scores and decreased vascular injury compared to a placebo control group, all while showing minimal adverse side effects

      High dose here is laughable. Again, duration and frequency also.
  • Maintaining a daily intake of 75 and 100 mg for men and women, respectively, as recommended by the U.S. Institute of Medicine

  • diabetes [8], atherosclerosis [9], the common cold [10], cataracts [11], glaucoma [12], macular degeneration [13], stroke [14], heart disease [15], COVID-19 [16], and cancer.
  • 1–5% of the Vit-C inside the human cells
  • interaction between Fe(II) and H2O2 produces OH− through the Fenton reaction
  • ...35 more annotations...
  • metabolic activity, oxygen transport, and DNA synthesis
  • Iron is found in the human body in the form of haemoglobin in red blood cells and growing erythroid cells.
  • macrophages contain considerable quantities of iron
  • iron is taken up by the majority of cells in the form of a transferrin (Tf)-Fe(III) complex that binds to the cell surface receptor transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1)
  • excess iron is retained in the liver cells
  • the endosomal six transmembrane epithelial antigen of the prostate 3 (STEAP3) reduces Fe(III) (ferric ion) to Fe(II) (ferrous ion), which is subsequently transferred across the endosomal membrane by divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1)
  • labile iron pool (LIP)
  • LIP is toxic to the cells owing to the production of massive amounts of ROS.
  • DHA is quickly converted to Vit-C within the cell, by interacting with reduced glutathione (GSH) [45,46,47]. NADPH then recycles the oxidized glutathione (glutathione disulfide (GSSG)) and converts it back into GSH
  • Fe(II) catalyzes the formation of OH• and OH− during the interaction between H2O2 and O2•− (Haber–Weiss reaction)
  • Ascorbate can efficiently reduce free iron, thus recycling the cellular Fe(II)/Fe(III) to produce more OH• from H2O2 than can be generated during the Fenton reaction, which ultimately leads to lipid, protein, and DNA oxidation
  • Vit-C-stimulated iron absorption
  • reduce cellular iron efflux
  • high-dose Vit-C may elevate cellular LIP concentrations
  • ascorbate enhanced cancer cell LIP specifically by generating H2O2
  • Vit-C produces H2O2 extracellularly, which in turn inhibits tumor cells immediately
  • tumor cells have a need for readily available Fe(II) to survive and proliferate.
  • Tf has been recognized to sequester most labile Fe(II) in vivo
  • Asc•− and H2O2 were generated in vivo upon i.v Vit-C administration of around 0.5 g/kg of body weight and that the generation was Vit-C-dose reliant
  • free irons, especially Fe(II), increase Vit-C autoxidation, leading to H2O2 production
  • iron metabolism is altered in malignancies
  • increase in the expression of various iron-intake pathways or the downregulation of iron exporter proteins and storage pathways
  • Fe(II) ion in breast cancer cells is almost double that in normal breast tissues
  • macrophages in the cancer microenvironment have been revealed to increase iron shedding
  • Advanced breast tumor patients had substantially greater Fe(II) levels in their blood than the control groups without the disease
  • increased the amount of LIP inside the cells through transferrin receptor (TfR)
  • Warburg effect, or metabolic reprogramming,
  • Warburg effect is aided by KRAS or BRAF mutations
  • Vit-C is supplied, it oxidizes to DHA, and then is readily transported by GLUT-1 in mutant cells of KRAS or BRAF competing with glucose [46]. DHA is quickly converted into ascorbate inside the cell by NADPH and GSH [46,107]. This decrease reduces the concentration of cytosolic antioxidants and raises the intracellular ROS amounts
  • increased ROS inactivates glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH)
  • ROS activates poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), which depletes NAD+ (a critical co-factor of GAPDH); thus, further reducing the GAPDH associated with a multifaceted metabolic rewiring
  • Hindering GAPDH can result in an “energy crisis”, due to the decrease in ATP production
  • high-dose Vit-C recruited metabolites and increased the enzymatic activity in the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), blocked the tri-carboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and increased oxygen uptake, disrupting the intracellular metabolic balance and resulting in irreversible cell death, due to an energy crisis
  • mega-dose Vit-C influences energy metabolism by producing tremendous amounts of H2O2
  • Due to its great volatility at neutral pH [76], bolus therapy with mega-dose DHA has only transitory effects on tumor cells, both in vitro and in vivo.
