Component
Tissue reduced glutathione content
Tissue reduced glutathione content. Species, exposure and limitations are retained in each linked claim.
1 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.
How nutrients influence it
Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.
Other things that act on it
Enzymes, hormones, genes, and other components with a recorded effect. These are not nutrients, so they do not count toward the arrows above. Each finding names the chapter that recorded it.
How nutrients reach it in more than one step
Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What it does
Every recorded relationship this component is part of, grouped by its role. Plain wording comes first; the technical statement follows.
What acts on it
After intraperitoneal acetaminophen, tissue glutathione was reduced more in mice than in rats and more in liver than in kidney without appearance of oxidized glutathione in either tissue, covalent binding of tritiated metabolites to tissue protein was likewise greater in mice than rats and greater in liver than kidney, prior 3-methylcholanthrene produced far greater induced changes in liver than kidney suggesting the reactive metabolite forms by slightly different mechanisms in each organ, and at doses below those causing demonstrable acute toxicity the duration of covalent binding was longer for renal papilla than for renal cortex or liver.
