Dehydroascorbic acid is an oxidized form of ascorbic acid (Item No. 14656).{48603} It is obtained through the diet or formed via oxidation of ascorbic acid in the gut and can also be reduced back to ascorbic acid in various cell types. Dehydroascorbic acid (0.5 and 1 mM) inhibits hydrogen peroxide-induced cell death in murine astrocytes by approximately 74 and 83%, respectively.{48604} It also increases glutathione peroxidase (GPX) and glutathione reductase activity and inhibits production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in hydrogen peroxide-treated astrocytes when used at a concentration of 1 mM. Dehydroascorbic acid (40 and 250 mg/kg) increases cerebral blood flow and reduces infarct volume and mortality in a mouse model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury induced by transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) when administered prior to ischemia.{48605} It also reduces infarct volume in a permanent MCAO mouse model when administered pre- or post-ischemia at doses of 250 and 500 mg/kg, respectively.

    CAY10512 – 100 mg

    The nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) regulates the expression of numerous genes involved in immunity and inflammation, cellular stress responses, growth, and apoptosis. Resveratrol, a polyphenolic trans-stilbene, is a known inhibitor of the activation of NF-κB and exhibits activity against a wide variety of cancer cells. CAY10512 is a substituted trans-stilbene analog of resveratrol that is 100-fold more potent as measured by antioxidant activity. The IC50 value for inhibition of TNFα-induced activation of NF-κB by CAY10512 is 0.15 µM compared to 20 µM by resveratrol.{14545}
