Cystathionine gamma-lyase (CTH) inhibition attenuates glioblastoma formation [PDF]
Purpose: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common type of adult brain tumor with extremely poor survival. Cystathionine-gamma lyase (CTH) is one of the main Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) producing enzymes and its expression contributes to tumorigenesis and ...

Heat Shock Protein 70 in Penile Neurovascular Regeneration Requires Cystathionine Gamma-Lyase [PDF]
Purpose: Diabetes mellitus, one of the major causes of erectile dysfunction, leads to a poor response to phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors. Heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), a ubiquitous molecular chaperone, is known to play a role in cell survival and ...

Cystathionine Gamma Lyase Is Regulated by Flow and Controls Smooth Muscle Migration in Human Saphenous Vein [PDF]
The saphenous vein is the conduit of choice for bypass grafting. Unfortunately, the hemodynamic stress associated with the arterial environment of the bypass vein graft leads to the development of intimal hyperplasia (IH), an excessive cellular growth ...

Pharmacological Inhibition and Genetic Deletion of Cystathionine Gamma-Lyase in Mice Protects against Organ Injury in Sepsis: A Key Role of Adhesion Molecules on Endothelial Cells [PDF]
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), synthesized by cystathionine gamma-lyase (Cth), contributes to the inflammatory response observed in sepsis. This study examines the effect of Cth-derived H2S in adhesion molecules on endothelial cells of vital organs in mice in a

Cystathionine gamma-lyase (Cth) induces efferocytosis in macrophages via ERK1/2 to modulate intestinal barrier repair [PDF]
Background The inflammatory response induced by intestinal ischaemia‒reperfusion injury (I/R) is closely associated with infectious complications and mortality in critically ill patients, and the timely and effective clearance of apoptotic cells is an ...

Co-targeting cystathionine gamma-lyase and mTOR: a promising therapeutic strategy in clear cell ovarian cancer [PDF]
Clear cell ovarian carcinoma (CCOC) is a rare, aggressive ovarian cancer subtype, comprising approximately 12% of epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) cases in Western countries yet associated with the worst prognoses due to its chemoresistance. Most CCOCs

Hydrogen sulfide generated by cystathionine gamma lyase inhibits lysyl oxidase and protects against calcific tendinopathy [PDF]
Background/objective: Increased lysyl oxidase (LOX) activity favors pathologic cartilage and vessel calcification. LOX promotes disease through enhanced collagen cross-linking, inflammation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, cell trans ...
