## Abstract Thiolβproteases play important roles in many cellular processes, including maintenance of protein homeostasis and execution of cell death. Therefore, determining how this family of enzymes is regulated is critical for our understanding of both physiological and pathological conditions.
## Abstract Ethanol induces oxidative stress in cultured fetal rat cortical neurons and this is followed by apoptotic death, which can be prevented by normalization of cell content of reduced glutathione (GSH). Because astrocytes can play a central role in maintenance of neuron GSH homeostasis, the
