BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS These, and other features and aspects, of the present invention will become further understood with regard to the following description and accompanying Figures, wherein: FIGURE 1 shows higher reactive oxygen species (ROS) (free radicals) at baseline in lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) from children with Autism
APAP feeding resulted in a significant decrease in total glutathione levels relative to vehicle control, with greater than a 70% reduction in total GSH levels after 3 days of exposure (116.42 5.55 uM GSH for vehicle control vs 33.67 2.35 for APAP treated)
Cystathionine is then broken down by cystathionine gamma-lyase (CGL) into cysteine, alpha-ketobutyrate, and ammonia
