Cataract (Cataracts)
01/01/1996 - "
We have recently observed that S-(2-hydroxyethylmercapto)-L-cysteine (L-CySSME), the mixed disulfide of L-cysteine and 2-mercaptoethanol, prevented cataracts induced in mice by acetaminophen (ACP) by functioning as a prodrug of L-cysteine and protecting the liver.
