Glutathione has many important functions in our body, but most importantly, it is the king (or queen) of antioxidants, which essentially means that it protects cells (egg/sperm) from damage due to ROS such as lipid hydroperoxides (turning them into alcohols) and hydrogen peroxide (turning it into water)
These discoveries gain additional significance in light of recent evidence linking ferroptosis induction to enhanced immunotherapy efficacy, where GSH depletion-triggered ferroptosis can boost anti-tumor immunity through promoting the maturation of dendritic cells and the priming of CD8 + T cells [36]
