N-Acetyl-L-cysteine CAS:616-91-1

N-Acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) is a modified form of the amino acid cysteine. It provides a source of cysteine and can be readily converted into the tripeptide glutathione, a powerful antioxidant in the body. NAC is known for its antioxidant and mucolytic properties, making it useful in various health applications.

As an antioxidant, NAC helps protect cells from damage caused by free radicals, reactive oxygen species, and toxins. It also supports glutathione synthesis, which plays a crucial role in the body’s detoxification processes and maintaining a healthy immune system.

NAC has been studied for its potential benefits in respiratory health, particularly for individuals with conditions such as chronic bronchitis, COPD, and cystic fibrosis. It is commonly used as an expectorant to help thin and loosen mucus, making it easier to clear the airways.

Furthermore, NAC has shown promise in supporting liver health by assisting in the removal of toxic substances, such as acetaminophen, a common pain reliever. It may also have protective effects against liver damage caused by alcohol consumption.

In addition to its antioxidant and respiratory support properties, NAC has been explored for its potential benefits in mental health. Some research suggests that it may have a positive impact on mood disorders, such as depression and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

Application and Effect

Antioxidant: NAC acts as an antioxidant by replenishing glutathione levels in the body. Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect cells from oxidative damage caused by free radicals.

Mucolytic: NAC has mucolytic properties, meaning it helps break down and thin mucus in the respiratory system. This makes it useful in conditions where mucus build-up is a problem, such as chronic bronchitis, COPD, and cystic fibrosis.

Liver support: NAC can support liver health and detoxification processes by assisting in the removal of toxins, including acetaminophen (a common pain reliever) and environmental pollutants. It may also have a protective effect against liver damage caused by alcohol consumption.

Mental health: NAC has been studied for its potential benefits in certain mental health conditions. It may have a positive impact on mood disorders, such as depression and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). It is thought to work by modulating levels of neurotransmitters like glutamate, which play a role in mood regulation.

Respiratory conditions: Due to its mucolytic properties, NAC is commonly used as an expectorant to help loosen and clear mucus in the airways. This can be beneficial for individuals with conditions like bronchitis, COPD, and cystic fibrosis.

Acetaminophen overdose treatment: NAC is the preferred treatment for acetaminophen overdose. It helps prevent liver damage by increasing glutathione levels and counteracting the toxic effects of the drug.
