The role of vitamin C in immunity and in host susceptibility to infection has been scientifically proven [92]. Vitamin C, in fact, is necessary for the biosynthesis of collagen and is essential for maintaining epithelial integrity and protecting against oxidative stress. It protects cell membranes from damage caused by free radicals, so as to support the integrity of the epithelial barriers [79], also improves keratinocytic differentiation and lipid synthesis as well as fibroblast proliferation and migration [92]. It plays a role in various aspects of immunity, in fact it is involved in the proliferation, function and movement of neutrophils, monocytes and phagocytes [82] and the migration of leukocytes to sites of infection, phagocytosis and bacterial killing, in the activity of natural killer cells and in the function of T lymphocytes (especially CD8 cytotoxic T lymphocytes) and in the production of antibodies [79, 82]. Vitamin C is also involved in apoptosis and elimination of depleted neutrophils from macrophage infection sites [92] and attenuates the formation of extracellular trap (NET), thus reducing the associated tissue damage [92].
