Regulation of Hepatitis C virus infection by cellular retinoic acid binding proteins through the modulation of lipid droplet abundance
Mechanistically, augmented ischemia-reperfusion injury in the absence of GPx-1 may be caused by increased NFB activation, as pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC), an NFB inhibitor, partially protects against neurotoxicity in this model (82)
Robbins, T
Crucially, this study shifted the scientific paradigm from a simple model of "glutathione depletion" to a model of an "overwhelmed compensatory mechanism." The discovery that circulating immune cells in these patients actually have elevated glutathione levelswhile simultaneously suffering from a severe depletion of other protective enzymes like SOD2revealed that the cells are desperately, and unsuccessfully, trying to fight off a catastrophic level of oxidative damage
Beyond its antioxidant functions, glutathione is involved in various important biochemical processes
