Apoptosis is a highly organized form of cell death that is important for tissue homeostasis, organ development and senescence. To date, the extrinsic (death receptor mediated) and intrinsic (mitochondria derived) apoptotic pathways have been characterized in mammalian cells. Reduced glutathione, GSH, is the most prevalent cellular thiol that plays an essential role in preserving a reduced intracellular environment. GSH protection of cellular macromolecules like DNA, proteins and lipids against oxidizing, environmental and cytotoxic agents, underscores its central anti-apoptotic function. Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) can oxidize cellular GSH or induce its extracellular export leading to the loss of intracellular redox homeostasis and activation of the apoptotic signaling cascade. Recent evidence uncovered a novel role for GSH involvement in apoptotic signaling pathways wherein post-translational S-glutathiolation of protein redox active cysteines is implicated in the potentiation of apoptosis. In the present review we focus on the key aspects of GSH redox mechanisms associated with apoptotic signaling that includes: (a) changes in cellular GSH redox homeostasis through GSH oxidation or GSH transport in relation to the initiation or propagation of the apoptotic cascade, and (b) evidence for S-glutathiolation in protein modulation and apoptotic initiation.
