Ascorbate-dependent decrease of the mucosal immune inflammatory response to
gliadin in coeliac disease patients. Allergol Immunopathol (Madr). 2011 Mar
17. [Epub ahead of print] PubMed PMID: 21420224

Gliadin-challenge induced IL-15 production in biopsies from treated CD
patients, while the addition of ascorbat e to culture medium completely
inhibited IL-15 production. Moreover, the inhibition of IL-15 by ascorbate
took place even in the only treated CD-patient who had basal IL-15
production. Ascorbate decreases the mucosal inflammatory response to gluten
in an intestinal biopsy culture model, so it might have a role in future
supplementary therapy in CD.
