Dietary sesame seed and its lignan increase both ascorbic acid concentration in some tissues and urinary excretion by stimulating biosynthesis in rats.

TL;DR: Dietary sesame seed and its lignan stimulate ascorbic acid synthesis as a result of the induction of UGT1A and the 2B-mediated metabolism of sesame ligna in rats, and enhances antioxidative activity in the tissues by elevating the levels of two antioxidant vitamins, vitamin C and E.
