4, 5, and 6 are prepared with the appropriate amounts of a JNK inhibitor, such as any one of the JNK inhibitors described herein, and medium chain triglyceride (CRODAMOL, GTCC-LQ-(MV), PhEur) as shown in the below table (Table D).Formulations The formulations are prepared by adding the target weight percentage of the JNK inhibitor to the appropriate amount of medium chain triglyceride
Riboflavin (Vitamin B2): This B vitamin is a necessary co-factor for the enzyme that recycles "used" glutathione back into its active "reduced" state
GSH concentration is instead measured by either of two methods: by analysis of GS-NEM conjugates by HPLC in the same sample that is used to measure GSSG or, alternatively, by analysis of GSH by spectrophotometry (GSH recycling method) on one additional sample aliquot that has not been derivatized with NEM
