As a small molecule that is highly prone to reacting with ROS, glutathione is at the core of a handful of different oxidative stress management systems.* In each of these systems, glutathione acts as a carrier of ROS

naturally small molecular reducing agents will never be as specific as the substrate-specific enzymes of the well-controlled antioxidant machinery of the cell, however with a finely tuned and designed thiolate basicity the redox potential and therefore the selectivity of the antioxidant thiol can be confined to a narrower range
