N-Acetylcysteine ethyl ester (NACET): a novel lipophilic cell-permeable cysteine derivative with an unusual pharmacokinetic feature and remarkable antioxidant potential

In cell culture studies, researchers have examined its influence on gene expression markers associated with tissue remodelling

In fact, GSH is present in some mammalian cells at concentrations near to 10 millimolar (Cooper and Kristal, 1997) and MeHg has been reported to cause oxidative damage in cultured neuronal cells when added to the culture medium at concentrations as low as 300 nanomolar (Farina et al., 2009)
