Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Ana Rafaela Oliveira Rodrigues"
- Ana Rafaela Oliveira Rodrigues' research investigates the dual role of ascorbic acid (AA) in the brain, exploring its prooxidant and antioxidant effects in both well-nourished and malnourished rats.
- The study focuses on how different doses of AA influence cortical excitability, measured through cortical spreading depression (CSD) and malondialdehyde levels, which indicate lipid peroxidation.
- Findings suggest that the impact of AA on brain excitability varies depending on nutritional status and the dosage administered, highlighting significant implications for understanding dietary influences on brain development and function.
