Fudosteine

Fudosteine is a cysteine derivative that interferes with the increase in goblet cell number, expression of the mucin MUC5AC, and subsequent mucin secretion, in airways agonized with tobacco smoke, isoproterenol, lipopolysaccharide, TNF-alpha, or oxidants. Fudosteine, which is a thiol compound with antioxidant properties, limits NF-kappaB signaling and reduces inflammatory gene expression. It has greater bioavailability than N-acetyl-cysteine and increases cysteine levels in cells.Formal Name: S-(3-hydroxypropyl)-L-cysteine. CAS Number: 13189-98-5. Synonyms: SS320A.
