<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background:</bold> The use of high dose ascorbate infusions in cancer patients is widespread, but without evidence of efficacy. Several mechanisms whereby ascorbate could affect tumour progression have been proposed, including (i) the localised generation of cytotoxic quantities of H2O2, (ii) ascorbate-dependent activation of the 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases that control...
