Targeting GSH-deficient phenotypes with specific antioxidant interventions and studying downstream biological effects could improve our understanding of prognosis-determining factors that have a pathoplastic effect on schizophrenia
Neuroprotection: Beyond just fixing the structure, there's evidence that BPC 157 has neuroprotective qualities, potentially shielding the compressed nerves from further damage and promoting their recovery

Additionally, GSH serves as a cysteine reservoir with a proton-donating sulfhydryl function, which allows GSH to act as an antioxidant
It is composed of the tripeptide glycylLhistidylLlysine bound to a divalent copper ion, forming a highaffinity chelated structure that enables controlled copper handling within biological environments
