Figure 10 Effects of fasting and glutathione treatment on Ggt1 mRNA expression in the jejunum.
GGT is the only enzyme of the gamma-glutamyl cycle located on the outer surface of plasma membrane and plays key roles in GSH homeostasis by breaking down extracellular GSH. Values are the mean ± SE. aP < 0.05 vs the normally fed control. dP < 0.01, cP < 0.05 vs the SA-treated group with 48 h of fasting. 7-8 rats were tested in each group. GSH: Glutathione; SA: Saline; GSSG: Oxidized glutathione.
