glutathione mercury detoxification Analysis of glutathione: implication in redox and Mercury Detoxification: Genomics and Solutions
Description
SLC3A2 primarily maintains the structural stability of System Xc- (Lin et al., 2020

The dianion has some water solubility at neutral pH, whereas the acid, due to intramolecular hydrogen bonds, is nearly insoluble in water.14,23 It has been believed that the hydrophobic isomer is responsible for the toxic effects, while the water-soluble isomers are thought to be nontoxic.153,154 However, there are weaknesses in the experimental approaches to these questions, and the issue cannot be said to be fully resolved.

At the cellular level, this peptide acts as a signaling molecule that modulates gene expression across numerous pathways relevant to skin aging and repair
