Glutamine is an amino acid commonly used to support muscle recovery and gut health, while glutathione is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect cells from oxidative stress and supports overall skin wellness
So if we were to inhibit the SLC33A1 transporter, the GSSG would accumulate, and the cancer cells would die. Our work demonstrates that defining how nutrients and metabolites are transported across cellular and organelle membranes reveals fundamental principles of cell biology while uncovering a major class of disease-relevant and therapeutically tractable proteins, Birsoy says

The phrase BPC is often expanded in literature as body protection compound, but this page treats that phrase only as nomenclature
Some claudins act in part by controlling barrier function and paracellular permeability (e.g., claudin-2, -7 and -12), while others control barrier properties such as electrical tightness of the junctions (claudin-1, -3, -4, -5 and -8) (Barmeyer et al., 2015)
