If youre wondering about the variability between these results, its worth noting that the study populations differ
MPP + treatment significantly reduces TIGAR expression in HT22 cells, downregulates NADPH, GPX4, and GSH levels, upregulates GSSG levels and the GSSG/GSH ratio, decreases adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production, and promotes neuronal ferroptosis, iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, and mitochondrial dysfunction, thereby exacerbating neuronal cytotoxicity
Individual response, tolerance and treatment duration vary
Consume sulfur-rich foods To preserve cysteine and methionine, consume foods rich in sulfur, including the following: Beef Broccoli Brussels sprouts Cauliflower Fish Garlic Kale Mustard greens Onions Poultry Shallots Watercress Consume foods rich in glutathione precursors Glutathione is made up of L-glutamate, glycine, and cysteine
