Notes: Fudosteine is a cysteine derivative that interferes with the increase in goblet cell number, expression of the mucin MUC5AC, and subsequent mucin secretion, in airways agonized with tobacco smoke, isoproterenol, lipopolysaccharide, TNF-α, or oxidants.{27445,27446,23667} Fudosteine, which is a thiol compound with antioxidant properties, limits NF-κB signaling and reduces inflammatory gene expression.{23667} It has greater bioavailability than N-acetyl-cysteine and increases cysteine levels in cells.{23667}
