Bioactivity | L-Cystathionine (dihydrochloride) is a nonprotein thioether and is a key amino acid associated with the metabolic state of sulfur-containing amino acids. L-Cystathionine (dihydrochloride) protects against Homocysteine-induced mitochondria-dependent apoptosis of vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs). L-Cystathionine (dihydrochloride) plays an important role in cardiovascular protection[1][2]. |
