Glutathione replenishment

- Metabolic pathway, Redox homeostasis
01
Overview
Glutathione (GSH) replenishment aims to restore cellular redox balance by increasing intracellular glutathione levels. GSH is a critical antioxidant involved in detoxification, redox signaling, and amino acid storage. Strategies include direct supplementation with precursors like NAC, induction or stabilization of biosynthetic enzymes, and inhibition of pathways leading to excessive depletion. Impaired glutathione levels are implicated in numerous diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders, liver disease, and cancer.
