Descripción

General description

Cell-permeable derivative of glutathione (GSH) that undergoes hydrolysis by intracellular esterases thereby increasing intracellular GSH concentration in many tissues and cell types. Effective transport of GSH-MEE has been used to protect cells against radiation damage, oxidants and various toxic compounds including heavy metals. A protective agent against cellular damage, such as cataracts and mitochondrial degeneration.
