| Target/Description | The NADP+/NADPH ratio is a critical indicator of a cell's reductive capacity and metabolic state, typically maintained at a very low level (high NADPH concentration) to support anabolic processes and antioxidant defenses. NADPH, the reduced form, acts as a primary electron donor for crucial biosynthetic pathways like fatty acid and nucleic acid synthesis, and plays a vital role in detoxifying reactive oxygen species by regenerating reduced glutathione. This distinct ratio, favoring NADPH, ensures a ready supply of reducing power essential for maintaining cellular redox homeostasis and is directly linked to cellular health, with imbalances contributing to various disease states. |
