Description
GLUTATHIONE
Cellular Antioxidant & Redox Research
Glutathione is a naturally occurring tripeptide composed of glutamate, cysteine, and glycine. It is one of the body’s principal intracellular antioxidants and plays an essential role in maintaining cellular redox balance.
Glutathione participates in oxidative-stress defense, detoxification reactions, cellular signaling, and protection of proteins and other cellular components from oxidative damage.
Its central role in cellular biology has made glutathione an extensively studied molecule in research involving oxidative stress, metabolism, aging, and cellular protection.
Research Focus: Antioxidant defense • Redox biology • Cellular protection • Oxidative stress
Research Status: Naturally occurring biological molecule.
