Luteolin selectively inhibits the type of O-glycosylation (Mucin-type O -glycosylation) involved in the formation of amyloid- .[ref] Animal studies show luteolin inhibits neuroinflammation by controlling microglia activation.[ref] In a mouse study of Alzheimers, luteolin protects against amyloid memory dysfunction and also increases levels of endogenous antioxidants, including Mn-SOD, Cu/Zn-SOD, and glutathione
Furthermore, 3-MA treated fibroblasts expressed higher levels of secreted IL-6 protein in comparison to control cells (Fig
But with peptides, and especially with an antioxidant powerhouse like Glutathione, preparation is the experiment
Pompella et al, 2003 describe a number of signalling cascades affected by protein S-glutathionylation: NF-kB/p50 (Pineda-Molina et al., 2001) and PTP1B phosphatase (Barrett et al., 1999), for example, which are able to affect cell proliferation
