These differences in reporting can also significantly alter reproducibility and translatability as two samples can have significantly different levels of total GSH, yet the same ratio of free GSH to GSSG
This molecule is also a powerful antioxidant, capable of neutralizing free radicals and reducing oxidative stress, protecting cells from damage *
Multiple cellular processes are considered to contribute to this functional decline and these are collectively referred to as the hallmarks of aging and these include processes like genomic instability, telomere attrition, epigenetic alterations, loss of proteostasis, disabled macroautophagy, deregulated nutrient-sensing, mitochondrial dysfunction, cellular senescence, stem cell exhaustion, altered intercellular communication, chronic inflammation, and dysbiosis 1
