Selenodiglutathione

Description:

Selenodiglutathione is a selenium-containing derivative of glutathione, a tripeptide composed of glutamate, cysteine, and glycine. This compound is characterized by the incorporation of selenium into the glutathione structure, which enhances its antioxidant properties. Selenodiglutathione plays a significant role in cellular defense against oxidative stress and may contribute to various biological processes, including detoxification and immune function. The presence of selenium in its structure allows it to participate in redox reactions, potentially offering protective effects against certain diseases. Additionally, selenodiglutathione is of interest in research related to cancer, as selenium compounds have been studied for their potential therapeutic effects. The compound is typically soluble in water and exhibits stability under physiological conditions, although its reactivity can vary depending on the environment. Overall, selenodiglutathione represents an important intersection of biochemistry and nutrition, highlighting the significance of trace elements in human health.
