Preferred Label : Reduced Glutathione-L-Cysteine-Anthocyanins Gel;
NCIt definition : A gel formulation containing reduced glutathione, L-cysteine, and anthocyanins with
potential antioxidant, immunostimulating, and chemoprotective properties. Reduced
glutathione is the primary cellular antioxidant and plays important roles in the antioxidation
of reactive oxygen species and free radicals and, as a thiol-containing co-enzyme,
in the detoxification of xenobiotic compounds. In addition, glutathione affects DNA
synthesis and repair and exerts immunostimulating activity by increasing the production
of interleukin-2 (IL-2), promoting antigen presentation, and stimulating T-suppressor/cytotoxic
(CD8 cells) cells. The flavonoid anthocyanins, derived from various blue and purple
flowering plants, are potent scavengers of reactive oxygen species.;
