Such high micromolar GSSG concentrations are unlikely to occur in most subcellular compartments but could be reached in the secretory pathway or during titration experiments of transgenic cell lines with an upregulated GSSG transporter 35,63,64,77
This is further supported by the finding that SOD activity is increased during active disease and returns to normal in remission (157).Additionally, the presence of oxidative damage and the inhibition of catalase, an antioxidant enzyme, in CD patients immune cells further underscores oxidative stresss role in the disease (158)
