N-acetylcysteine amide is a membrane penetrating antioxidant with antiinflamatory activity through regulation of activation of NF-κB and HIF-1α as well as modulation of ROS. The compound readily crosses cell membranes, replenishes intracellular GSH, and defends the cell from oxidative stress. In contrast to DTT, AD4 is able to directly reduce intracellularl GSSG to GSH without the involvement of glutathione peroxidase. Such direct thiol exchange might have a protective effect. This compound has a potential in research and exploration for treatment of neurodegeneration, radiation exposure, and other oxidation-mediated disorders.

Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by | Animal B Km |
Animal A Km |
For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
