(BOC Sciences Original) Distinct Mechanisms of Action in Skincare Applications: Tyrosinase Inhibition via Deep Transport: Melanin synthesis occurs in melanocytes located in the basal layer of the epidermis
There is much evidence that antioxidant team that covers glutathione reductase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, and glucose-6-phopshate destroy reactive oxygen species and other free radicals through enzymatic as well as nonenzymatic means
It is a powerful antioxidant comprised of three amino acidscysteine, glutamic acid, and glycinebuilt from the elements of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur linked together in the following molecular structure: C 10 H 17 N 3 O 6 S
It has been associated with oxidative DNA damage in conditions such as aging, cancer and pro-oxidant environmental exposures
Glutathione helps the tyrosinase enzyme in the body to control melanin production
