Sarcopenia, a loss of muscle mass and functionality, constitutes a major contributor to disability in diabetes. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) dynamics and muscle mass regulatory signaling were studied in GK rats, a model for type 2 diabetes (T2D). GK rats exhibited a number of features that are
Since our initial demonstrations that hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) may function as a neuromodulator in the brain and a smooth muscle relaxant in the vascular system, accumulating evidence shows that H(2)S may function as a signaling molecule. We and others also found that H(2)S has a cytoprotective
OBJECTIVE
Hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S), a novel gaseous mediator, has been recognized to protect neurons from overexcitation by enhancing the activity of the adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium (K-ATP) channel. However, no direct evidence supports that the K-ATP channel contributes to the
Although hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) occurs due to the deficiency in cystathionine-β-synthase (CBS) causing skeletal muscle dysfunction, it is still unclear whether this effect is mediated through oxidative/endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-stress or both. Nevertheless, there is no treatment option
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) usually causes lower back and neck pain with a high incidence, which significantly reduces the life quality of patients. However, there is no effective treatment available currently. Our previous study has found that hydrogen sulfide (H2S) shows
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of blindness and is becoming a global crisis since affected people will increase to 288 million by 2040. Genetics, age, diabetes, gender, obesity, hypertension, race, hyperopia, iris-color, smoking, sun-light and pyroptosis have varying roles
Hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) has recently been recognized as a signaling molecule as well as a cytoprotectant. Cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) and cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE) are well-known as H(2)S-producing enzymes. We recently demonstrated that 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3MST) along with
There are three members of the endogenous gas transmitter family. The first two are nitric oxide and carbon monoxide, and the third newly added member is hydrogen sulfide (H2S). They all have similar functions: relaxing blood vessels, smoothing muscles, and getting involved in the
It has been suggested that excessive apoptosis in intervertebral disc cells induced by inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-1β, is related to the process of intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD). Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a gaseous signaling molecule, has drawn attention for its
Treatment with hydrogen sulfide mitigates spinal cord injury-induced sublesional bone loss, possibly through abating oxidative stress, suppressing MMP activity, and activating Wnt/β-catenin signaling.
Spinal cord injury (SCI)-induced sublesional bone loss represents the most severe osteoporosis and
Bioconversion of hydrogen sulfide to elementary sulfur by the photosynthetic bacterium Chlorobium thiosulfatophilum was studied in immobilized-cell and sulfur-settling free-cell recycle reactors. The cells immobilized in strontium alginate beads excreted elementary sulfur and accumulated it as
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) poisoning involves a risk of hypoxic brain damage. Six patients who lost consciousness due to H2S poisoning are described. The symptoms varied from anosmia in the patient with the shortest but highest exposure to delayed neurological deterioration in the patient with the
OBJECTIVE
To observe the effect of Ulinastatin (UTI) in the dynamic changes of aquaporin 4 (AQP4) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in the brain tissue injury of acute hydrogen sulfide (H2S) intoxicated, to explore the Mechanism of brain tissue injury of acute H2S-intoxicated and the protection effect of
The purpose of this research is to use red soils as a high-temperature regenerable sorbent for sorption of hydrogen sulfide from coal gas and collocates with a series of spectroscopic apparatuses in order to investigate the structure changes after multiple sorption/regeneration processes. Results
