Research Abstract |
The changes in plasma ascorbate (AsA) and plasma total antioxidant capacity (TAC) induced by oxidative stress in mouse, which can biosynthesize vitamin C unlike human being, are not fully elucidated. The acute inflammation mouse model and the chronic inflammation mouse model were developed and the change in plasma AsA and plasma TAC were examined using them. The results showed that mouse could increase plasma AsA and plasma TAC against the physiological demand of vitamin C, which was increased by inflammatory reaction, in a short time
