These include obesity, physical inactivity, poor diet, genetics, and certain medical conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
While GTs initiate extracellular GSH breakdown, the primary intracellular degradation pathway is now thought to be mediated by the cationic transport regulator homolog (ChaC)-like family of -glutamylcyclotransferases (GCT) ( ChaC-like family proteins are remarkably conserved, being found across all phyla from bacteria to humans, where they catalyze intracellular GSH degradation and yield 5-oxoproline and cysteinylglycine (Figure 2)
Until larger trials include those populations, use in that context cannot be recommended
