VITAMIN C

Description

Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble antioxidant compound studied for its role in redox balance, collagen synthesis, and cellular protection. It functions as a cofactor in several enzymatic reactions, including those involved in hydroxylation and immune response pathways. In vitro, Vitamin C is commonly used to investigate oxidative stress modulation, iron absorption, and tissue regeneration signaling.
