Glutathione (GSH) precursor; maintains stem cell function in culture.
N-Acetylcysteine is a cell-permeable antioxidant and a precursor of reduced glutathione (GSH) (Cat. No. 5219), with anti-inflammatory, mucolytic, and antiviral activities. N-Acetylcysteine can be used in organoid culture media for non-small cell lung and colorectal cancer organoids, expansion media for mouse/human liver and pancreas 3D organoids and LWRN media for colonic 3D organoids from human biopsies. It is a component of S7 medium in the optimized protocol for generation of functional stem cell-derived islets (SC-islets). N-Acetylcysteine can be orally administered.
