As a prototype antioxidant, it is involved in cell protection from the noxious effect of excess oxidant stress
Glutathione is a major antioxidant and the cofactor for glutathione peroxidase,one of the most important antioxidant enzymes in the body
In Parkinsonian rat models, ALC improved glutathione (GSH) content while decreasing oxidative stress indices and inducible nitrogen oxide synthase (iNOS) levels.[15] Combination Strategies for Oxidative Stress: ALC 1,500-2,000 mg/day + Alpha-lipoic acid 600 mg/day (complementary antioxidant mechanisms) + N-acetylcysteine 600-1,200 mg/day (glutathione precursor) + Vitamin E 400-800 IU/day (lipid-soluble antioxidant) 5

Strbe et al., 2021), in rats with severely increased intra-abdominal pressure, i.e., primary abdominal compartment syndrome, we attempted to introduce a therapy for compressed essential vessel tributaries, both arterial and venous (peripherally and centrally), due to occluded major veins and arteries, in order to prevent the consequent noxious syndrome, both peripherally and centrally
It is commonly discussed in research contexts related to tissue repair and recovery processes
