| researchquestion | This study investigates how erythrocytes in hemodialysis patients deal with the large loss of plasma ascorbate with long-term hemodialysis and whether enhanced expression of glucose transporter 1 on erythrocyte membrane in hemodialysis patients plays a role in erythrocyte ascorbate recycling. |
