L-Cystine dihydrochloride
Catalog No. A27045

L-Cystine dihydrochloride is the dihydrochloride salt of the endogenous metabolite L-Cystine, functioning primarily as an activator of the Nrf2 transcription factor. This compound enhances Nrf2 protein expression, leading to a reduction in reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and protection against apoptosis induced by oxidants or Doxorubicin. Additionally, L-Cystine dihydrochloride, in combination with L-theanine, promotes the production of antigen-specific IgG and modulates T helper 2 (Th2) responses by elevating glutathione (GSH) levels in murine models. It holds potential for investigating conditions such as cystinuria and the formation of kidney stones.
