Abstract
Methods for the use of glutathione trisulfide (GSSSG) in neuroprotection, e.g., in neurodegenerative diseases and to reduce the risk of ischemic injury. The methods can be used, e.g., to reduce risk of injury to brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves from ischemia or low blood flow states possibly caused by surgery, trauma, and other conditions that decrease/impair blood flow and or oxygen delivery to the nervous system.
