Thiol–protein disulfide oxidoreductase activity was detected in the soluble cell fraction of human placental tissue homogenized in sucrose. This activity was demonstrated in the rapid reduction of oxytocin and the somewhat less rapid reduction of insulin by reduced glutathione. The apparent pH optimum of the enzymic activity for the reduction of oxytocin and insulin was found to be near pH 8.

Glutathione–protein disulfide oxidoreductase activity has been demonstrated in mouse mammary gland, with both insulin and oxytocin serving as disulfide-containing substrates. The activity does not change markedly in pregnancy but shows a marked increase when lactation is established, reaching a maximum about the 10th day of lactation.
