Antioxidant enzymes, such as glutathione peroxidases and peroxiredoxins, generate glutathione disulfide during the reduction of peroxides such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and organic hydroperoxides (ROOH): 2 GSH + ROOH GSSG + ROH + H2O Other enzymes, such as glutaredoxins, generate glutathione disulfide through thiol-disulfide exchange with protein disulfide bonds or other low molecular mass compounds, such as coenzyme A disulfide or dehydroascorbic acid
Understanding these differences helps medical aestheticians select the ideal approach for each patient, balancing efficacy, comfort, and potential risks
The key is providing the UV stimulus, and both sources can do this effectively
