glutathione peroxidase and depression alterations in depression: a meta-analysis systematic review of proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy studies | Psychopharmacology GPX1 (Glutathione Peroxidase, GSHPx) Gene

Arch Biochem Biophys 307 : 2934 Yamamoto Y, Takahashi K 1993 Glutathione peroxidase isolated from plasma reduces phospholipid hydroperoxides

In contrast, on exposure to diamide or hydogen peroxide, a marked increase of CPP32 protease activity was observed after a few hours, suggesting that intracellular redox state profoundly modulates the signaling processes of apoptosis by regulating the activity of caspases

We found that Ca 2+ depletion-induced luminal reduction requires the presence of cytosolic GSH: inhibition of GSH synthesis by BSO or the release of cytosolic GSH by selective permeabilization of the plasma membrane prevented the redox shift upon Ca 2+ release

Our bodies need these amino acids for optimal health
