L-Ascorbic acid-13C6-1

L-Ascorbic acid-13C6-1 (L-Ascorbate-1; Vitamin C-13C6-1) is a 13C labeled L-Ascorbic acid (HY-B0166) [1]. L-Ascorbic acid (L-Ascorbate), an electron donor, is an endogenous antioxidant agent. L-Ascorbic acid inhibits selectively Cav3.2 channels with an IC50 of 6.5 μM. L-Ascorbic acid is also a collagen deposition enhancer and an elastogenesis inhibitor[2][3][4]. L-Ascorbic acid exhibits anti-cancer effects through the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and selective damage to cancer cells[5].
