Sulfiredoxin (Srx) is one of a family of low molecular weight sulfur containing proteins linked with maintenance of cellular redox balance. One function of Srx is the reduction of cysteine sulfinic ...

A diet rich in the amino acid cysteine may have rejuvenating effects in the small intestine, according to a new study from MIT. This amino acid, the researchers discovered, can turn on an immune ...

The review explores the potential link between alopecia areata (AA) and cysteine metabolism. Research suggests insufficient cysteine levels or disruptions in its processing could contribute to AA ...

People with high levels of the amino acid cysteine have been found to carry between six and ten kilograms more fat than those with lower levels. Now a team of researchers are studying the phenomenon. ...

Scientists have uncovered a startling metabolic twist: mice engineered to lack the amino acid cysteine, and fed a cysteine-free diet, shed nearly a third of their body weight in just a week. The ...

An amino acid found in everyday foods such as meat, cheese, nuts and beans could help the gut heal after cancer treatments, according to new research. In a study conducted on mice, scientists from the ...
