Our results support the hypothesis that a decrease in reduced glutathione may contribute to changes associated with aging as well as to the increased susceptibility to disease processes which occur with advanced age.
These results support the hypothesis that a decrease in glutathione content and glutathione-metabolizing enzymes may contribute to changes associated with aging as well as the increased susceptibility to carcinogens, drugs and disease which occurs with advanced age.
The AGE-induced increase in oxidized glutathione could be prevented by the radical scavengers N-acetylcysteine, alpha-lipoic acid and 17beta-estradiol or by application of catalase, indicating that superoxide and hydrogen peroxide production precedes the AGE-mediated depletion of reduced glutathione.
Overall, glutathione in both forms are well tolerated.
