Salivary gamma-glutamyltransferase activity as an indicator of redox homeostasis in breast cancer
One of the main participants in maintaining the redox balance is glutathione (GSH), the metabolism of which directly depends on the activity of gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT), and the content of amino acids cysteine (Cys), methionine (Met), glutamine ...

Transcriptomics in Venous Leg Ulcers (VLU): A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Venous leg ulcers (VLUs) are chronic wounds in the lower limbs that cause significant morbidity. The underlying biology underpinning non‐healing in VLUs is still poorly understood and differences in transcriptomic profiles may help elucidate biological pathways involved in wound chronicity.
