RTqPCR mRNA measurement In rats with strokereperfusion at 1 and 24 hr, the beneficial effect of BPC 157 therapy during reperfusion was associated with strongly elevated ( Egr1, Akt1, Kras, Src, Foxo, Srf, Vegfr2, Nos1, and Nos3 ) and decreased ( Nos2 and Nfkb1 ) gene expression, while Mapk1 remained unchanged throughout both time intervals (Figure 6)
Researchers have also observed that glutathione regulates protein function through reversible S-glutathionylation of cysteine residues, modulating the activity of signaling proteins, transcription factors, and metabolic enzymes in response to oxidative conditions
Simple way to think about it: Reduced glutathione is charged and ready to work
DNA is essentially a blueprint that cells use when they split and create new cells
