Ascorbic Acid Transport in Brain Microvascular Pericytes

Intracellular vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, has been shown to prevent the apoptosis of cultured vascular pericytes under simulated diabetic conditions. We sought to determine the mechanism by which ascorbate is transported into pericytes prior to exerting this protective effect. Measuring intracellul...
