In fact, the elevated homocysteine and reduced S-adenosylmethionine in PD has been ascribed to physiologic aging associated reduction in homocysteine metabolism cofactors (88)

We constructed a luciferase reporter driven by the Vgf promoter and found that glutamine and alanine treatment significantly increased Vgf promoter activity (Fig

This is complicated because as a polar, charged tripeptide, transport of GSH is significantly inhibited by the blood-brain barrier (BBB), thus limiting effective delivery to brain-resident immune cells such as microglia which are central drivers of neuroinflammatory pathology (Valdovinos-Flores and Gonsebatt, 2012
