  • Title: Ascorbic acid inhibition of Na,K-adenosine triphosphatase of rat forebrain without peroxidation of membrane lipids.
    Author: Goto K, Tanaka R.
    Journal: Brain Res; 1981 Feb 23; 207(1):239-44. PubMed ID: 6258735.
    Abstract:
    Using reagents and membrane preparations from which contamination had been carefully removed, we found that ascorbic acid inhibited rat brain Na,K-ATPase without causing lipid peroxidation, unlike the conventional belief; the inhibition was prevented by catecholamines and EGTA. Ascorbic acid radicals, instead of active oxygen, may play a role in the inhibition.
