Abstract

As glutatione and cellular thiol-related research progresses, the role of these thiols has been extended from acting only in the maintenance of steady-state redox equilibrium, to a proposed involvement in many stressinduced metabolic and bioregulatory functions, including signal transduction and gene expression. 1-3 Glutathione depletion has been identified in various disease processes, including Parkinson's disease and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. 4,5 Thiols are also known to protect against cytotoxicity associated with exposure to radiation and chemotherapeutic agents. 6'7 Therefore, the evaluation of cellular thiol status may pro-
