Mucosal acidification increases hydrogen sulfide release through up-regulating gene and protein expressions of cystathionine gamma-lyase in the rat gastric mucosa [PDF]
Objective(s): This study was performed to investigate the effects of mucosal acidification on mRNA expression and protein synthesis of cystathionine gamma lyase (CSE), cystathionine beta synthase (CBS), and mucosal release of H2S in gastric mucosa in ...

Duchenne's muscular dystrophy involves a defective transsulfuration pathway activity
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the most frequent X chromosome-linked disease caused by mutations in the gene encoding for dystrophin, leading to progressive and unstoppable degeneration of skeletal muscle tissues.

The Therapeutic Potential of H2S‐Releasing Platforms in Cardiovascular Applications
The Therapeutic Potential of H2S‐Releasing Platforms. ABSTRACT Once known as a toxic gas, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is now making its way into many therapeutic applications. Similar to its other fellow endogenous gasotransmitters, nitric oxide and carbon monoxide, H2S is a small gas with a short half‐life, making it extremely capable of penetrating ...

Dental complications in homocystinurias
Background: Cystathionine beta synthase deficiency (causing classical homocystinuria) has been associated with high-arched palates and crowded teeth, but little has been said about other oral health complications.

Isothiocyanates as Ferroptosis Inducers to Promote Cancer Cell Death
ABSTRACT Cancer remains a leading cause of global mortality, with the therapeutic efficacy of anticancer drugs often hampered by late diagnosis and the development of chemotherapy resistance. Ferroptosis is an iron‐dependent form of regulated non‐apoptotic cell death driven by lipid peroxidation.

MAPK Inhibitor‐Tolerant Persister Cells in Melanoma: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Vulnerabilities
Melanoma response to MAPK inhibition progresses from drug‐sensitive cells to drug‐tolerant persister states, which enable survival through adaptive signaling, metabolic rewiring, and phenotypic plasticity. These persister cells serve as an intermediate reservoir from which resistant tumors ultimately emerge. ABSTRACT Though major advancements have been

Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster as Model Organisms in Biofactor Research
This review presents Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster as powerful and ethically sound invertebrate model organisms that can be used to investigate nutritional science questions relating to biofactors. Such nutritional phenotyping studies can bridge the gap between in vitro studies and in vivo research in mammals.

Association of cystathionine beta-synthase polymorphisms and aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage [PDF]
OBJECTIVECystathionine β-synthase (CBS) is involved in homocysteine and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) metabolism. Both products have been implicated in the pathophysiology of cerebrovascular diseases. The impact of CBS polymorphisms on aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and its clinical sequelae is poorly understood.METHODSBlood samples from all ...
