Vitamin C Antagonizes the Cytotoxic Effects of Antineoplastic Drugs

http://bit.ly/dmsGXV

" Taken together, our data show that pharmacologic concentrations of

intracellular vitamin C antagonize the therapeutic cytotoxic effects of

antineoplastic chemotherapeutic agents. This finding could have important

clinical relevance given the wide use of vitamin C as a nutritional

supplement. These results suggest that supplementary vitamin C may have

adverse consequences in patients who are receiving cancer chemotherapy. Such

a supposition, however, would need confirmation in other therapeutic models

or in human trials. "

All the best,
