“Addition of NAC leads to the formation of adducts with GDN which diminish formation of GDN adducts with GSH.”
“Indeed, the presence of NAC in the growth medium causes a rapid conversion of GDN into the GDN-NAC adduct, which is the real cause of the abrogated GDN cytotoxicity.”
“It was suggested that NAC prevents GDN cytotoxicity mainly by the restoring of glutathione (GSH) level (Clark et al., 2009).”
“ NAC also forms stable adducts with GDN extracellularly.”

“Compared with 17-AAG, geldanamycin led to significantly more intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, which was quenched by addition of N-acetylcysteine.”
“ GA disrupted Hsp90 binding and increased ROS production starting at 1 h, and cell death occurred at 6 h, inhibited by N-acetylcysteine (NAC) without preventing dissociation of proteins.”
