L-Cystine
Catalog No. A27030

L-Cystine is an effective Nrf2 activator and reactive oxygen species (ROS) inhibitor. This extracellular form of L-Cysteine elevates Nrf2 protein expression and facilitates its transcriptional activity, thereby reducing ROS generation and providing protection against oxidant- or Doxorubicin-induced apoptosis. Additionally, L-Cystine has been shown to enhance antigen-specific IgG production and T helper 2 mediated responses through increased glutathione levels in murine models. This makes L-Cystine a valuable reagent for research in cystinuria and kidney stone formation.
