Glutathione (glutathione, r-glutamyl cysteingl +glycine, GSH) is a tripeptide containing γ-amide bonds and sulfhydryl groups. It is composed of glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine. It exists in almost every part of the body. cell.
Glutathione can help maintain the normal immune system function, and has an antioxidant effect, integrated detoxification effect. The sulfhydryl group on cysteine is its active group (so it is often abbreviated as G-SH), which is easy to combine with certain drugs, toxins, etc., so that it has an integrated detoxification effect. Glutathione can be used not only as medicine, but also as a base material for functional foods. It is widely used in functional foods such as delaying aging, enhancing immunity, and anti-tumor.
Glutathione has two forms: reduced (G-SH) and oxidized (G-S-S-G). Under physiological conditions, reduced glutathione accounts for the vast majority. Glutathione reductase can catalyze the interconversion between the two types, and the coenzyme of this enzyme can also provide NADPH for pentose phosphate bypass metabolism.
