Here, we demonstrate that N-acetyl-L-cysteine ethyl ester (NACET), a lipophilic cell-permeable cysteine derivative, increases the viability in oxidative stressed RPE cells more efficiently than NAC by reacting directly and more rapidly with oxidizing agents, and that NACET, but not NAC, pretreatment predisposes RPE cells to oxidative stress resistance and increases the intracellular reduced glutathione (GSH) pool available to act as natural antioxidant defense

Other neurodegenerative disorders including Parkinsons, Huntingtons, and ALS have also been linked with UPS dysfunction, via contributing to the accumulation of toxic aggregates such as -synuclein and huntingtin (Tseng et al., 2008
