Cystathionine beta synthase modulates senescence of human endothelial cells

open access: yesAging, 2012
Availability of methionine is known to modulate the rate of aging in model organisms, best illustrated by the observation that dietary methionine restriction extends the lifespan of rodents. However, the underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood.

Effect of Cysteine on Expression of Cystathionine .BETA.-Synthase in the Rat Liver.

open access: yesJournal of Nutritional Science and Vitaminology, 1995
Hepatic cystathionine beta-synthase activity is decreased by the addition of cysteine to the diet. This effect of cysteine was slightly greater in diets containing 0.25% methionine than in those containing 1% methionine, and was reduced during aging.

Hydrogen Sulfide Signaling Axis as a Target for Prostate Cancer Therapeutics

open access: yesProstate Cancer, 2016
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) was originally considered toxic at elevated levels; however just in the past decade H2S has been proposed to be an important gasotransmitter with various physiological and pathophysiological roles in the body.

Hydrogen Sulfide Reduces Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cell-Mediated Inflammatory Response in a Model of Helicobacter hepaticus-Induced Colitis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Chronic inflammation contributes to tumor initiation in colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CRC). Indeed, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients show an increased risk of developing CRC.

Unraveling CBS Mutations and Their Clinical Impact in a Chinese Family With Classical Homocystinuria

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine
Background Classical homocystinuria (HCU), caused by cystathionine beta‐synthase (CBS) deficiency, exhibits significant geographic variability in its mutational spectrum.

Cystathionine beta synthase-hydrogen sulfide system in paraventricular nucleus reduced high fatty diet induced obesity and insulin resistance by brain-adipose axis.

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2018
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an essential neuromodulator, generates by cystathionine β synthase (CBS) or 3-mecaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3MST) in the brain.

Domain Organization, Catalysis and Regulation of Eukaryotic Cystathionine Beta-Synthases

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) is a key regulator of sulfur amino acid metabolism diverting homocysteine, a toxic intermediate of the methionine cycle, via the transsulfuration pathway to the biosynthesis of cysteine. Although the pathway itself is well conserved among eukaryotes, properties of eukaryotic CBS enzymes vary greatly.

Recurrent venous thrombosis in an adolescent male with CBS mutation and persistent antiphospholipid antibody positivity: a case report

open access: yesThrombosis Journal
Homocysteine (Hcy) contributes to endothelial dysfunction and impaired thrombolysis, and genetic polymorphisms that elevate plasma Hcy concentrations have been linked to an increased risk of thrombosis. Notably, mutations in the cystathionine β-synthase (
