CAS 70-18-8: Glutathione

Description: Glutathione, with the CAS number 70-18-8, is a tripeptide composed of three amino acids: glutamine, cysteine, and glycine. It is a crucial antioxidant found in nearly all living cells, playing a vital role in protecting cells from oxidative stress and maintaining the redox state. Glutathione exists in two forms: reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG), with the reduced form being the active antioxidant. It is involved in various biochemical processes, including detoxification, protein synthesis, and the regulation of cellular functions. Glutathione is soluble in water and has a relatively low molecular weight. Its antioxidant properties are attributed to the thiol group in cysteine, which can donate electrons to neutralize free radicals. Additionally, glutathione is important in the metabolism of drugs and toxins, facilitating their excretion from the body. Deficiencies in glutathione levels have been linked to various health issues, including neurodegenerative diseases and immune dysfunction, highlighting its significance in human health and disease prevention.
