Levels of glutathione synthetase (GSS) were determined using Human Glutathione Synthetase ELISA Kit (Abcam, Cambridge, UK), while levels of glutathione (GSH) were determined with the GSH+GSSG / GSH Assay Kit (Colorimetric) (Abcam, Cambridge, UK)
The identified metabolites were L-3-methoxytyrosine (3-OMD), aconitic acid, L-methionine, 13-docosenamide (erucamide), HA and 9,12-octadecadienoic acid (linoleic acid)
Methods Computer-aided molecular design, synthesis, and characterization All the computer-aided molecular design studies were performed in SZMAP/GamePlan 37 and vBrood 38 modules in OpenEye software and Molecular Operating Environment, MOE 39
