Possible Interaction: Glycerol and Vitamin C

“The resulting cell viability in the cartilage samples as measured by membrane integrity staining … least one concentration or in combination, all of the tested additive compounds (tetramethylpyrazine, ascorbic acid , chondroitin sulphate, glucosamine sulphate) were … the deleterious effects of glycerol exposure when examination of membrane … on a delayed time frame.”

“5.7%) did the intraocular pressure also remain at the upper limit of the standard after intake of glycerol combined with ascorbic acid.”

“The vertical diameter of the blind spot and intraocular pressure were measured several times before and after oral intake of a dose of glycerol combined with ascorbic acid.”

“The patient takes a mixture of glycerol and ascorbic acid as a hypotensive agent, his visual field or visual acuity and intraocular pressure are checked every 30 minutes.”

“It was observed that VC dose dependently inhibited glucose uptake and lactate production, and also reduced glycerol release in both control and insulin-treated cells.”

“and group 3 was given glycerol plus vitamin C (20 mg/kg, i.p.”

“The mRNA expression of CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein α (C/EBPα) and fatty acid synthase (FAS), FAS activity, and the content of glycerol and triglyceride (TG) were decreased in the muscle by 509.6 and 1007.5 mg/kg VC diets.”
