Abstract

The great importance of glutathione as a redox regulator and the reducing carrier has been recognized. There is clear necessity for subdivision of an independent mitochondrial glutathione subsystem. The data on specific features of glutathione metabolism in different organs are accumulated. There is convincing evidence for the involvement of the glutathione system into inflammation and immunity. Studies of the glutathione system are used in medicine for elucidation of pathogenesis of diseases and their diagnostics.
