Previous studies suggest that GCL is localized to the chloroplasts and GS is localized both to chloroplasts and cytosol in plant cells (Hell and Bergmann, Arabidopsis suggests that GCL and GS are each encoded by a single gene with alternate transcription start sites leading to either plastid-targeted or cytosolic protein (Wachter et al., Arabidopsis leaf tissue shows that GCL is localized to the chloroplast and that GS is found within chloroplasts and the cytosol (Figure 2)
Researchers continue to investigate its biological activity across a range of experimental models
Keep in mind, however, that it can also trigger flares and you want to approach it cautiously, ideally with professional guidance
The Future of Glutathione Therapy As research into the benefits of glutathione continues to expand, we at MedSpa California remain at the forefront of this exciting field
