Glutathione Research Compound
Glutathione, commonly abbreviated GSH, is a naturally occurring tripeptide composed of glutamic acid, cysteine, and glycine. It is widely studied in laboratory research involving redox biology, oxidative-stress models, thiol-disulfide balance, cellular antioxidant systems, detoxification pathways, mitochondrial function, and cellular signaling. Research interest in glutathione primarily centers on its role as a key intracellular thiol and its involvement in maintaining cellular redox status.
