S-Acetyl L-Glutathione [Powder]

Description

S-Acetyl L-Glutathione [Powder]

Preclinical investigations have indicated that S-Acetyl L-Glutathione [Powder] is a chemically modified derivative of reduced glutathione (GSH). It is composed of the tripeptide sequence L-glutamic acid, L-cysteine, and glycine. In S-acetyl-L-glutathione, the acetyl group is attached to the sulfur (S-) atom of the cysteine residue.

This acetylation enhances the compound’s stability and potential cellular uptake in preclinical models. These properties improve its experimental stability compared to unmodified glutathione.

In controlled experimental settings, S-Acetyl L-Glutathione has been investigated for its antioxidant capacity, detoxification role, mitochondrial support, and immune modulation.

What is the working mechanism of S-Acetyl L-Glutathione?

Preclinical and laboratory studies have investigated describe the working mechanism of S-Acetyl L-Glutathione [Powder] through the following experimental pathways:

• Molecular Stability in Lab Experiments
