Cysteine Redox Potential Determines Pro-Inflammatory IL-1β Levels
BACKGROUND: Cysteine (Cys) and its disulfide, cystine (CySS) represent the major extracellular thiol/disulfide redox control system. The redox potential (E(h)) of Cys/CySS is centered at approximately −80 mV in the plasma of healthy adults, and oxidation of E(h) Cys/CySS is implicated in inflammatio...
