Description
Research Overview
Glutathione is a tripeptide antioxidant used in laboratory systems to study intracellular redox balance, glutathione cycling, detoxification chemistry, oxidative stress, and thiol-dependent signalling. Research applications commonly involve cellular defence pathways and biochemical redox responses.
Mechanism of Interest
Research typically investigates glutathione redox cycling, reactive oxygen species buffering, glutathione peroxidase pathways, thiol chemistry, and broader antioxidant network behaviour.
