Figure 7 Discussion Nephrolithiasis is a common disease associated with substantial prevalence and financial burden all over the world ( It is established that oxidative stress resulted from ROS overproduction and decreased antioxidants is involved in CaOx crystal-induced renal tubular cell injury, which plays an important role in kidney stone formation ( The PI3K/AKT pathway has been involved in many critical cellular functions, including protein synthesis, cell cycle progression, proliferation, apoptosis and autophagy ( The transcription factor NF-B is crucial in a series of cellular processes, including inflammation, cellular adhesion, immunity, differentiation, proliferation and apoptosis ( Excessive oxidative stress and inflammation in the progress of stone formation inevitably promote EMT of tubular cells and renal fibrosis ( Based on the above analysis, the potential mechanism of HRW on oxalate-induced kidney injury was summarized (Figure 8)

When looking to boost dietary glutathione, focus on the following: Whey Protein GSH is very sulfuric, so you need a protein-rich in amino acids like cysteine, glutamate, and glycine
