L-Glutathione Reduced
L-Glutathione Reduced (70-18-8) is an endogenous tripeptide antioxidant composed of glutamic acid, cysteine, and glycine. It functions by scavenging oxygen-derived free radicals and serves as a critical detoxifying agent in cellular systems. L-Glutathione Reduced exerts its biological activity mainly through redox reactions involving its thiol group, contributing to processes such as protein and DNA synthesis, enzyme regulation, and cellular protection.
No specific experimental model, activity type, or key metric such as IC50/EC50 is provided. L-Glutathione Reduced holds research potential in studies of oxidative stress, detoxification, and as an eluting agent for glutathione S-transferase (GST) in affinity chromatography.

Application |
Compared with the control group, no significant effects were observed in the rates of lipid peroxidation and vitamin E in hepatic and cardiac tissues of hypothyroidism rats, while the thyroid function of hyperthyroidism rats was significantly enhanced. |
|
Other notes |
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal. |
