It plays a critical role in tissue remodeling, wound healing, collagen production, and anti-aging processes
If GSH peroxidase activity is deficient, lipid peroxidation could increase in the tissues, leading to increased stimulation of PGH synthase, increased thromboxane production, and further increase lipid peroxides
Additionally, glutathione supports the activity of other antioxidants, such as vitamins C and E, helping to regenerate them after they have been oxidised
