Abstract
Cysteine-glutathione mixed disulfide (CySSG), a prodrug of glutathione (GSH) --the “Master Antioxidant”, was found to be orally bioavailable in mice, and protected against a toxic dose of acetaminophen. If oral bioavailability can also be demonstrated in humans, this suggests a wide range of applicability for CySSG.
