Cysteine sulfinate is converted to hypotaurine by the rate-limiting enzyme in taurine synthesis, cysteine sulfinic acid decarboxylase (also called sulfinoalanine decarboxylase)
By reducing the generation of free radicals and enhancing antioxidant defense mechanisms, these agents play a significant role in alleviating oxidative stress, improving metabolic disturbances, and inhibiting inflammatory responses
Accumulation of these compounds causes tissue damage through oxidative damage of cellular structures, that is, proteins, membrane lipids and nucleic acids (Reference Halliwell and Gutteridge44)
