Glutathione exists in two primary states within the cell: Reduced glutathione (GSH): The active, antioxidant form Oxidized glutathione (GSSG): The spent form, converted back to GSH by the enzyme glutathione reductase using NADPH Under healthy physiological conditions, more than 98% of cellular glutathione exists in the reduced (active) form

Originally isolated from plasma in the 1970s, GHK-Cu is endogenously present in the organism and has been suggested to decline in concentration over time
