Some N-(dipeptidyl)-S-acetylcysteamine and N,N'-(dipeptidyl)cystamine salt derivatives were synthesized and evaluated as candidate radioprotector agents. Toxicity and radioprotective activity as the dose reduction factor (DRF) were determined in vivo on mice and compared to N-glycyl-S-acetylcysteamine trifluoroacetate. One of the most interesting compounds of this series was N-glycylglycyl-S-acetylcysteamine trifluoroacetate (8).
