From bacteria to plants and humans, the glutathione system plays a pleiotropic role in cell
defense against metabolic, oxidative and metal stresses. Glutathione (GSH), the γ-L …

Glutathione (GSH or reduced glutathione) is a tripeptide of gamma-Glutamyl-
cysteinylglycine and the predominant intracellular antioxidant in many organisms including …

This Special Issue of Antioxidants on Glutathione (GSH) and Glutaredoxin (Grx) was
designed to collect review articles and original research studies focused on advancing the …

Increases in the intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), frequently referred to
as oxidative stress, respresents a potentially toxic insult which if not counteracted will lead to …

Glutathione is one of the most abundant thiols present in cyanobacteria and proteobacteria,
and in all mitochondria or chloroplast-bearing eukaryotes. In bacteria, in addition to its key …

Glutathione (GSH) is the most abundant cellular tripeptide (L‐γ‐glutamate‐L‐cysteinyl‐
glycine) which is as critical as oxygen and water. This low molecular mass antioxidant has a …

The physiological roles played by the tripeptide glutathione have greatly advanced over the
past decades superimposing the research on free radicals, oxidative stress and, more …
