In this study, we evaluated the potential of cysteine (Cys), N-acetyl cysteine (NAC), and Mercaptopyruvate (MCP as hyperpolarized 13C substrate for assessing oxidative stress (OS) in vivo. Of these, MCP was identified as a viable substrate for in vitro OS assessment, and we are currently developing large-scale MCP synthesis for testing the potential of this substrate for in vivo OS measurements.
