The first and rate-limiting reaction in the formation of glutathione is catalyzed by ␥-glutamylcysteine synthetase (GCS), a dimer composed of a catalytic heavy and a regulatory light subunit. We previously found that heavy subunit GCS mRNA appears to be expressed at high levels in the hippocampus, c

The unprecedented ability of cyclosporin A, when given for six days at a dose of 25 mg/kg/d or 50 mg/kg/d, to cause a marked and sustained increase in renal glutathione (GSH) concentration in rat kidney is described. This response was particular to the kidney insofar as the GSH concentration in the
