Wheezing and shortness of breath are main symptoms of bronchial asthma. Asthmatics showed increased superoxide generation from leucocytes, as well as increased lipid peroxidation product, indicating increased oxidative stress. Ascorbic acid directly neutralizes free radical, thus it is continuously utilized to maintain the redox state of lung in asthma. Hatch et al suggested that ascorbic acid is the major antioxidant substance present in the airway surface lining of the lung, and may protect against endogenous as well as exogenous oxidants. Our present finding that low ascorbic acid caused wheezing in children could be attributed to its normal physiological function, elevated utilization to overcome continuous generation of oxidant radical and also to neutralize the exogenous oxidant. It has been suggested that ascorbic acid deficiency may be either an underlying factor in the pathophysiology of asthma or a response to asthmatic airways inflammation. Our findings of low ascorbic acid in wheezing children is in agreement with the earlier reports of researchers who attributed such kind of lowering in ascorbic acid level in plasma to its normal physiological function i.e., its utilization in the maintenance of defense mechanism, tissue integrity and replacement and healing process. Destruction of respiratory mucous membrane during common cold and resulting reduction of the tissue ascorbic acid, may further delay in the healing of mucous membrane surface leading to prolonged symptoms of asthma. A study shows that antioxidant vitamins are decreased in the sera of asthmatic patients even during the asymptomatic periods of the disease, and thus this decrease is not totally dependent on the increased oxidative stress as reflected by lipid peroxidation products.

Bronchial asthma mainly manifests as wheezing and shortness of breath. Patients with asthma show increased superoxide generation from leukocytes and increased lipid peroxidation products, both of which indicate increased oxidative stress. Ascorbic acid is an important antioxidant that directly neutralizes free radicals; therefore, it is usually used to maintain a redox state in the lungs of patients with asthma. According to Hatch et al., ascorbic acid is the major antioxidant in the airway surface liquid of the lungs and may protect against endogenous and exogenous oxidants. We found that the presence of a low ascorbic acid level in children with wheezing may be attributed to its normal physiological function and increased utilization to overcome the continuous generation of oxidant radicals and to neutralize exogenous oxidants. Therefore, ascorbic acid deficiency may be an underlying factor in the pathophysiology of asthma or a response to airway inflammation in patients with asthma. Consistent with our findings, other studies have also reported a low ascorbic acid level in children with wheezing; these researchers have attributed the decrease in the plasma ascorbic acid level to its normal physiological functions in maintaining the body’s defense mechanism and in the integrity, replacement, and healing processes of tissues. Destruction of the respiratory mucous membrane during common cold and the consequent decrease in tissue ascorbic acid levels may further delay the healing of the mucous membrane surface and result in prolonged asthma symptoms. A study reported decreased serum levels of antioxidant vitamins in patients with asthma, even during the asymptomatic period of the disease. Therefore, this decrease does not completely depend on increased oxidative stress, as reflected by lipid peroxidation products.
