Description:
L-Ergothioneine (EGT) is a natural thiourea derivative of histidine and exists in two forms: thiol and thione forms. It was first discovered by Tanret in Claviceps purpurea in 1909 (Tanret, 1909). As a low molecular weight (LMW) thiol, the presence of the sulfhydryl group endows it with a wide range of beneficial effects such as anti-oxidation, anti-inflammatory, and detoxification, thereby preventing biomolecular damage (Sao Emani et al., 2019).
Therefore, it exhibits possible protective effects in various oxidative stresses of organisms. Its unique physical and chemical properties (these are also explained in detail below) have made it a research hotspot since its discovery. It has been widely used as a dietary supplement and cosmetic additive (Han et al., 2021). A novel food, synthetic EGT, was proved to be safe under the expected use conditions by the European Food Safety Authority Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies, and is recommended as a food supplement.
