ON THE ROLE OF CYSTATHIONINE-γ-LYASE IN MODULATING TRANSSULFURATION PATHWAY IN THE LENS [PDF]

open access: yes
In Mammals transsulfuration pathway enables the conversion of homocysteine (Hcy), deriving from methionine (Met) transmetilation, into cysteine (Cys) through two steps, the first catalyzed by cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) and the second one by ...

Gasotransmitters: novel regulators of ion channels and transporters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
More than 25 years ago, it was a big surprise for physiologists that nitric oxide (NO) was identified as the endothelium derived relaxing factor which is responsible for endothelium-induced smooth muscle relaxation (Ignarro et al., 1987).

Nuclear localised more sulphur accumulation1 epigenetically regulates sulphur homeostasis in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Sulphur (S) is an essential element for all living organisms. The uptake, assimilation and metabolism of S in plants are well studied. However, the regulation of S homeostasis remains largely unknown.

Hydrogen sulfide and its role in female reproduction

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a gaseous signaling molecule produced in the body by three enzymes: cystathionine-β-synthase (CBS), cystathionine-γ-lyase (CSE) and 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3-MST).

Overexpression of Cystathionine γ-Lyase Suppresses Detrimental Effects of Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a polyglutamine (polyQ) disorder caused by a CAG repeat expansion in the ataxin-3 (ATXN3) gene resulting in toxic protein aggregation. Inflammation and oxidative stress are considered secondary factors contributing

Significance of Hydrogen Sulfide Production in the Pancreatic β-Cell

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2011
.: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an important signaling molecule in various mammalian cells and tissues. H2S is synthesized from l-cysteine and regulates several cellular and physiological phenomena (vasorelaxation, hormone secretion, and apoptosis) and ...

Inhibition of cystathionine gamma-lyase and the biosynthesis of endogenous hydrogen sulphide ameliorates gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Clinical use of gentamicin over prolonged periods is limited because of dose- and time-dependent nephrotoxicity. Primarily, lysosomal phospholipidosis, intracellular oxidative stress and heightened inflammation have been implicated.

Effects of inhibiting antioxidant pathways on cellular hydrogen sulfide and polysulfide metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Elaborate antioxidant pathways have evolved to minimize the threat of excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) and to regulate ROS as signaling entities.

Allosteric activators of cystathionine γ lyase to augment endogenous hydrogen sulfide and inhibit pathologic calcification

open access: yesPharmacological Research
Hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), a gasotransmitter naturally produced in the body by enzymes such as cystathionine γ lyase (CSE), helps reduce inflammation, oxidative stress, and abnormal tissue calcification.
