[Glutathione system. II. Other enzymes, thiol-disulphide metabolism, inflammation and immunity, functions].

The great significance of glutathione as a redox regulator and the reducing carrier has been established. There is a clear necessity for subdivision of an independent mitochondrial glutathione subsystem. The data on a specificity of glutathione metabolism in different organs are accumulated. The significance of glutathione system for inflammation and immunity has been proved.
