Dehydroascorbic acid is an oxidized form of vitamin C that can cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Dehydroascorbic acid clears cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced after ischemic stroke by converting to ascorbic acid (AA), thereby reducing neuronal and glial cell damage and stabilizing cerebral microvascular NO signaling to maintain perfusion in the ischemic area. Dehydroascorbic acid can be used in research on ischemic stroke[1][2].
