Glutathione (GSH), as a biologically active tripeptide with strong antioxidant capacity and detoxification function, has a wide range of applications covering pharmaceuticals, functional foods, agriculture and biology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Pharmaceutical field<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Liver disease treatment:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Adjuvant medicine for chronic liver disease: glutathione tablets (e.g., Altonmorin) are commonly used in the hepatoprotective treatment of chronic hepatitis B, which can improve liver function, reduce transaminases and promote liver cell repair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fatty liver and alcoholic liver disease: Through antioxidant and detoxification effects, it can reduce lipid peroxidation and acetaldehyde damage to liver cells and improve liver metabolic function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Drug-induced liver injury: to counteract the hepatotoxic metabolites of drugs such as paracetamol and protect the integrity of hepatocyte membranes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Detoxification and heavy metal poisoning:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Binding heavy metals (such as mercury, arsenic, lead) and toxins (such as acrylonitrile, fluoride), the formation of water-soluble complexes excreted from the body to reduce toxicity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Used in adjuvant treatment of carbon monoxide poisoning to reduce hypoxic injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tumor adjuvant therapy:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reduce oxidative stress reaction of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, reduce toxic side effects such as nausea and vomiting, mucous membrane damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Combined with cisplatin and other anti-tumor drugs to enhance efficacy and protect normal cells.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other clinical applications:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Immunomodulation: enhance the activity of white blood cells and improve the state of low immunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Skin diseases: topical preparation for chloasma, hyperpigmentation, etc., inhibit tyrosinase activity, reduce melanin production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Neuroprotection: In the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, the combination of drugs to improve the function of dopaminergic neurons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Functional food and health products<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anti-aging and beauty:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a \u201clongevity factor\u201d, it scavenges free radicals, slows down cell aging, and maintains skin elasticity and luster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Whitening products inhibit melanin synthesis and lighten pigmentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enhance immunity:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
GSH is added to functional foods to enhance immune cell activity and prevent colds and infectious diseases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sports Nutrition:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Help athletes to remove free radicals, reduce muscle damage after exercise and accelerate recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Market Product Forms:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dietary supplements: tablets, capsules, oral solution, etc. for daily antioxidant and immune support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Functional Drinks: Drinks with GSH added, claiming to have the efficacy of detoxifying the liver and refreshing the mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Agricultural and biological fields<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Crop resistance enhancement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anti-oxidative stress: exogenous application of GSH enhances the ability of crops (e.g. wheat, corn) to resist drought, salinity and high temperature, and improves survival rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Promote growth and development: regulate photosynthesis and nutrient absorption, increase yield and improve fruit quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Soil remediation and heavy metal pollution control:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
GSH complexes with heavy metals (e.g. cadmium, lead), reduces their bioavailability, and decreases the absorption of heavy metals by crops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Remediation of heavy metal contaminated soil, improve the safety of agricultural products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Biotechnology and Enzyme Engineering:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Participate in the design of biosensors and biofuel cells as cofactors for enzymatic reactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Protect DNA from oxidative damage in gene editing technologies (e.g. CRISPR-Cas9).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
