Abstract
Herein, we report the synthesis and characterisation of a new fluorescent probe 4-(7-nitro-benzo[1,2,5]oxadiazol-4-yl)-benzaldehyde (NBOB) installed with quenching groups for highly selective and sensitive sensing of biothiols. The probe itself is non-fluorescent due to the presence of quenching groups and photoinduced electron transfer (PET) process. Thus, sensitivity of the probe towards thiols was significantly improved by quenching effects. NBOB has been shown to exhibit selective reactivity towards cysteine (Cys) and homocysteine (Hcy) over glutathione (GSH) under stoichiometric conditions. The response mechanism was proved by 1H NMR, LCMS and theoretical calculation. The probe NBOB has been shown to react with Cys present in Vero cells by fluorescence microscopy.

N-Acetylcysteine--a safe antidote for cysteine/glutathione deficiency.

TL;DR: N-acetylcysteine is a safe, well-tolerated antidote for cysteine/GSH deficiency and has been used successfully to treat GSH deficiency in a wide range of infections, genetic defects and metabolic disorders, including HIV infection and COPD.

Glutathione deficiency is associated with impaired survival in HIV disease (AIDSyN-acetylcysteineyredox)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that GSH deficiency in CD4Tcells from such subjectsisassociated with markedly decreased survival 2-3 years after baseline data collection (Kaplan-Meier and logistic regression analyses, P < 0.0001 for both analyses).
