  3. L-Cystine

L-Cystine is an orally active extracellular form of L-Cysteine (HY-Y0337), occurring in proteins of plants and animals. L-Cystine elevates Nrf2 protein expression and activates Nrf2 transcription factor. L-cystine reduces ROS generation and protects against oxidant- or Doxorubicin (HY-15142A)-induced apoptosis. L-Cystine combined with L-theanine (HY-15121) enhances the production of antigen-specific IgG by increasing glutathione (GSH) levels and T helper 2 (Th2) mediated responses in mice. L-Cystine is promising for research of cystinuria and kidney stones

    In Vitro

    L-Cystine (83 µM or 200 µM, 24 h or 72 h) effectively reverses the growth inhibition of both Sulfasalazine (HY-14655) and Erastin (HY-15763) in Huh6 cells[1].
    L-Cystine ( 0.8 mM, 4 h) induces Nrf2 protein expression elevation in a Keap1-dependent manner in HeLa cells[6].

    Cell Viability Assay[1]

    Cell Line: Huh6 and Huh7 cells
    Concentration: 83 µM or 200 µM
    Incubation Time: 72 h or 24 h
    Result: The degree of growth inhibition by Sulfasalazine (HY-14655) or Erastin (HY-15763) was greater in medium containing a physiological level of 83 μM L-cystine than in medium containing 200 μM L-cystine in Huh6 and Huh7 cells.

    Western Blot Analysis[6]

    Cell Line: HeLa cells
    Concentration: 0.2 mM
    Incubation Time: 4 h
    Result: Was sufficient for producing Nrf2 protein elevation at 0.2 mM in HeLa cells.

    In Vivo

    L-Cystine (280 mg/kg, p.o., 11 days) administrated with L-theanine (HY-15121) enhances antigen-specific IgG production partly through augmentation of glutathione (GSH) levels and T helper 2 (Th2)-mediated responses in mice[2].
    L-Cystine (200 mg/kg, p.o., 11 days) administrated with L-theanine (HY-15121) (80 mg/kg, p.o., 11 days) significantly decreases the serum IL-10/IFN-γ ratio 6 hours after DNP-KLH antigenic stimulation, but increases the serum IL-10/IFN-γ ratio 24 hours after DNP-KLH antigenic stimulation in mice[2].

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
