Key mechanisms identified in published laboratory research include: Copper chaperone activity: This compound acts as a copper transport molecule in research models, delivering Cu(II) ions to copper-dependent enzymes, including lysyl oxidase (involved in collagen and elastin crosslinking) and superoxide dismutase (a key antioxidant enzyme)
This means that they are still making glutathione, but they dont keep enough of it around to protect them from oxidative stress
