Quantification of thiol/disulfide redox in biologic systems has provided 3 general conclusions 1. At the cellular level, GSH redox becomes oxidized as cells progress through the life cycle, and cells regulate extracellular thiol/disulfide redox state 2. At the systemic level, plasma GSH redox becomes oxidized with oxidative stress and is oxidized in association with aging and chronic disease 3. In cells and plasma, GSH redox is NOT equilibrated with thioredoxin or Cys/CySS, providing the basis to consider discrete redox circuits for redox signaling and control

Quantification of thiol/disulfide redox in biologic systems has provided 3 conclusions 1. At the cellular level: Cells regulate extracellular thiol/disulfide redox state. Cellular GSH redox becomes oxidized as cells progress through the life cycle 2. At the systemic level: Plasma GSH redox becomes oxidized with oxidative stress. Plasma redox is oxidized with aging, nutritional deficiency, toxicity and chronic disease 3. Relationship of redox couples: GSH redox is NOT equilibrated with thioredoxin or Cys/CySS. This provides the basis to consider discrete redox circuits for redox signaling and control

Mitochondrial Trx2 is more susceptible to oxidation than the cytoplasmic Trx1 3. Redox western blot analysis of mitochondrial Trx2 provides a useful approach to measure mitochondrial oxidative stress
