Assessment of Cystamine’s Radioprotective/Antioxidant Ability under High-Dose-Rate Irradiation: A Monte Carlo Multi-Track Chemistry Simulation Study

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
(1) Background: cystamine and its reduced form cysteamine have radioprotective/antioxidant effects in vivo. In this study, we use an in vitro model system to examine the behavior of cystamine towards the reactive primary species produced during the ...

Effect of Cystamine on Sperm and Antioxidant Parameters of Ram Semen Stored at 4 °C for 50 Hours [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Razi Institute, 2021
Physical and chemical changes caused by oxidative stress in the spermatozoa membrane can reduce spermatozoa function and even lead to death. Cystamine (NH2-CH2-CH2-SH, β-mercaptoethylamine) is a natural substance that modulates the endocrine and ...

Redox-Sensitive Linear and Cross-Linked Cystamine-Based Polymers for Colon-Targeted Drug Delivery: Design, Synthesis, and Characterisation

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2020
Cystamine-based polymers may help to achieve controlled and targeted drug delivery to the colon due to their susceptibility to breakage of the disulfide linkage in the low redox potential environment of the colon.

Inhibition of Low-Density Lipoprotein Oxidation by Cysteamine, Cystamine, Cysteine and Cystine at Lysosomal pH and pH 7.4 [PDF]

open access: yesAntioxidants
LDL can be oxidised in the lysosomes of macrophages. Cysteamine, a thiol antioxidant that accumulates in lysosomes, inhibits the oxidation of LDL by iron at lysosomal pH (pH 4.5) and protects against atherosclerosis in mice.
