Glutathione, Reduced (GSH) Monograph
Introduction Reduced glutathione, most commonly called glutathione or GSH, is a relatively small molecule ubiquitous in living systems. Occurring naturally in all human cells, GSH is a water-phase orthomolecule. Its intracellular depletion ultimately results in cell death and its clinical relevance has been researched for decades. GSH is the smallest intracellular thiol (–SH) molecule. Its high...
متن کاملOxidation induced by the antioxidant glutathione (GSH).
Remarkably efficient oxygen atom transfer from an intermediate of glutathione (GSH) autoxidation to an organometallic ruthenium arene thiolato complex is observed under physiologically-relevant conditions.
متن کاملInhibition of GTRAP3-18 May Increase Neuroprotective Glutathione (GSH) Synthesis
Glutathione (GSH) is a tripeptide consisting of glutamate, cysteine, and glycine; it has a variety of functions in the central nervous system. Brain GSH depletion is considered a preclinical sign in age-related neurodegenerative diseases, and it promotes the subsequent processes toward neurotoxicity. A neuroprotective mechanism accomplished by increasing GSH synthesis could be a promising appro...
متن کاملThe Glutathione Derivative, GSH Monoethyl Ester, May Effectively Whiten Skin but GSH Does Not
Glutathione in its reduced form (GSH) is an antioxidant and also is involved in pheomelanin formation. Thus, it has been long believed that GSH has a skin whitening effect. However, its actual or direct effect is unproven. We evaluated the anti-melanogenic effects of GSH and its derivatives in vitro. We examined change of melanogenesis and its related proteins by GSH itself and its derivatives,...
متن کاملGlutathione (GSH) conjugates with dopamine (DA)-derived quinones to form reactive or non-reactive GSH-conjugates
In this study we demonstrate for the first time that GSH could rapidly conjugate with dopamine (DA)-derived DA-o-quinones without enzymatic catalysis to form short-lived intermediate GSHconjugates (2-S-GSH-DA-o-quinone and 5-S-GSH-DA-o-quinone). These intermediate GSHconjugates are unstable and would finally form reactive or non-reactive GSH-conjugates dependent on ambient reductive forces. Und...
