Product Information:
N-Acetylcysteine ethyl ester is a lipophilic, cell permeable ethyl ester derivative of N-acetylcysteine.1 In oxidative stressed retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells NACET increases viability more efficiently than NAC and pretreatment predisposes RPE cells to oxidative stress resistance.1 Enhances intracellular glutathione concentration in HUVECs.2 Acts as a potent protector against hydroperoxide-induced oxidative damage.3 Protects against UV-induced reactive intermediates in human keratinocytes.4
