Cysteinylglycine is an endogenous dipeptide resulting from the linkage of cysteine and glycine. It serves as a crucial metabolic intermediate, primarily produced by the degradation of glutathione. Cysteinylglycine functions in redox processes by reducing ferric iron to ferrous iron, generating reactive oxygen species (ROS), and inducing oxidative stress, which can lead to lipid peroxidation and DNA damage. Its potential as a biomarker makes it valuable for assessing ischemic heart disease, breast cancer, and other pathological conditions.
