  • Artificial elevation of glutathione contents in salicylic acid-deficient tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum cv. Xanthi NahG) reduces susceptibility to the powdery mildew pathogen Euoidium longipes.: This study explores the impact of enhanced glutathione levels on resistance to powdery mildew in tobacco plants deficient in salicylic acid, indicating a potential application of R-(−)-2-Oxothiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid in managing plant diseases (Künstler et al., 2020).

Fatiguing exercise promotes oxidation of intracellular thiols, notably glutathione. Interventions that oppose or reverse thiol oxidation can inhibit fatigue. The reduced cysteine donor l-2-oxothiazolidine-4-carboxylate (OTC) supports glutathione synthesis and is approved for use in humans but has not been evaluated

Earlier studies have suggested an important role of glutathione (GSH) in cytoprotection against free radicals induced oxidative damage. This study reports gastroprotective effects of a cysteine precursor, L-2-oxothiazolidine-4-carboxylate (OTC), in experimental models of gastric secretion and ulceration. Acid secretion studies

The mechanistic significance of oxidative stress to fibrogenesis in the methionine and choline-deficient (MCD) diet-induced model of steatohepatitis was evaluated by antioxidant intervention, using either vitamin E or L-2-oxothiazolidine-4-carboxylate (OTC), a cysteine precursor that promotes glutathione synthesis. Significant depletion of

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients have a higher incidence of oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, and cardiovascular disease than uninfected individuals. Recent reports have demonstrated that viral proteins upregulate reactive oxygen species, which may contribute to elevated cardiovascular risk in HIV-1
