Biomarker Reference · GSH
Intracellular Glutathione (GSH) is a clinical biomarker used in comprehensive-panels assessment. Glutathione is the principal intracellular thiol antioxidant, synthesised from glutamate, cysteine, and glycine. It is measured in 2 laboratory tests on BiomarkersLabs.com.
Glutathione is the principal intracellular thiol antioxidant, synthesised from glutamate, cysteine, and glycine. It detoxifies reactive oxygen species and xenobiotics and maintains the cellular redox state. Measurement in lymphocytes is offered as a marker of systemic oxidative stress and antioxidant capacity.
Glutathione depletion is associated with oxidative stress, immune dysfunction, and impaired detoxification in chronic illness, toxin exposure, and genetic polymorphisms in glutathione synthesis or recycling. Functional testing is used in chronic fatigue, environmental illness, and neuroinflammatory conditions where oxidative stress is suspected.
Reference ranges vary by laboratory and assay platform. Interpret in context of the issuing laboratory's stated range.
