Featured Products
L-Cysteine HCl (CAS: 52-89-1) is an orally bioactive, conditionally essential amino acid that serves as a precursor for bioactive molecules such as hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), glutathione, and taurine. It modulates multiple signaling pathways by influencing cellular antioxidant systems and maintaining cellular structural balance. Studies in rodent models have demonstrated that L-Cysteine HCl can suppress appetite by reducing gastric ghrelin levels. Its ability to regulate vascular reactivity and redox homeostasis underpins its utility in investigating vascular physiology and disease mechanisms in biomedical research.
