N-Acetylcysteine is an amino acid that is used as a drug to treat acetaminophen (paracetamol) overdose, in the treatment of chronic bronchitis and cystic fibrosis, and to reduce the risk of contrast-induced nephropathy in patients undergoing angiography. It is also used in the treatment of hepatic encephalopathy. N-Acetylcysteine acts by restoring glutathione levels and preventing cell death caused by excitotoxicity or oxidative stress. N-Acetylcysteine stabilizes cells via its reversible inhibition of cystathionase, an enzyme involved in cellular respiration. The molecule binds irreversibly to mitochondria, preventing reactive oxygen species from damaging them. NAC has been shown to stabilize cells through an apoptotic process triggered by external stimuli such as irradiation or oxidative stress, as well as through stabilization of mitochondrial membranes. NAC has been shown to be effective against Le
