  • Title: The relationship between reduced glutathione level and glutathione S-transferase activity in sheep erythrocytes.
    Author: Goto I, Agar NS, Maede Y.
    Journal: Jpn J Vet Res; 1992 Sep; 40(2-3):99-104. PubMed ID: 1297006.
    Abstract:
    The relationship between reduced glutathione (GSH) level and glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity in erythrocytes was examined, using sheep erythrocytes, which have varying GSH concentrations, and dog erythrocytes with an inherited high concentration of GSH. There was a positive correlation (r = 0.529, p < 0.001) between the GSH level and GST activity in sheep erythrocytes. In dog erythrocytes, the GST activity in high-GSH cells was significantly (p < 0.001) higher than that in normal-GSH cells. These results indicate that the activity of GST in erythrocytes is directly correlated with the intracellular GSH level.
