CHAC1 inactivation is effective to preserve muscle glutathione but is insufficient to protect against muscle wasting in cachexia.
Muscle wasting is one of the main characteristics of cachexia associated with cancer and other chronic diseases and is often exacerbated by antineoplastic agents. Increased oxidative stress is associated with muscle wasting, along with depletion of glutathione, the most abundant endogenous antioxida...
