Glutathione might inhibit the effects of cerebral infarction and enhance antiapoptotic signaling after ischemic stroke, suggesting that GSH may be a potent therapeutic antioxidant that can attenuate severe pathologies after ischemic stroke, and stimulating GSH synthesis through administration of GSH precursors and micronutrients like selenium can optimize GSH and GSH peroxidase for optimal antioxidant defense in cerebral ischemia (155, 156)
The hps locus encodes five glycosyltransferases ( hpsEFG , I , and K ) and four pseudopilins ( hpsBCD and H ), among others
In both pathways, cysteine-dependent proteases known as caspases execute apoptotic cell death by cleaving key structural and regulatory proteins, primarily through the action of caspase-3 (CASP3) and caspase-7 (CASP7), with caspase-6 (CASP6) contributing to downstream substrate cleavage and apoptotic progression
This synergy is one reason glutathione + vitamin C therapy has gained popularity
