Glutathione, as a major intracellular antioxidant, maintains oxidative stress balance, decreases inflammatory responses, and apparently promotes periodontal inflammation indicators, dispalying impvital ortant potential for clinical application
A change in GSH and GSSG levels are important when assessing toxicological responses and an indicator of oxidative stress, potentially leading to apoptosis or cell death
GHK-Cu differs from other signal peptides (Matrixyl, acetyl hexapeptide-8, palmitoyl tripeptides) in its copper-coordinated mechanism and broad gene-expression effects
Additionally, the glutathione peroxidases play a critical role in thyroid function because they catalyze the degradation of peroxides generated during thyroid hormone synthesis (10)
