Glutathione performs a number of important functions, including: making DNA (the building blocks of proteins and cells), supporting immune function, breaking down some free radicals, helping certain enzymes function, regenerating vitamin C and E, forming sperm cells, helping the liver and gallbladder deal with fats, and assisting regular cell death (apoptosis)
Subsequent gene-expression analyses cited in the review identified GHK-Cu as modulating expression of approximately one-third of human genes, with a pattern consistent with reversal of age-related transcriptomic shifts
