In particular, the cystine/glutamate antiporter (System X c ), glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and glutathione (GSH) (System X c /GSH/GPX4 axis) plays a key role in preventing lipid peroxidation-mediated ferroptosis, because of which could be inhibited by blocking System X c /GSH/GPX4 axis
This physical quenching mechanism allows a single lycopene molecule to intercept and disarm multiple reactive oxygen species over its lifespan within the cell
As we age, our glutathione levels naturally decline, leading many to explore supplementation as a strategy to combat the signs of aging
