Cystathionine Gamma-Lyase Is Increased in Testicular Seminomas, Embryonal, and Yolk Sac Tumors. [PDF]
Testicular cancer constitutes 1.0% of male cancer and typically carries a good prognosis. As far as we are aware, the role for hydrogen sulfide in testicular cancer and the level of hydrogen sulfide-synthesizing enzyme have never been addressed. Here we examined cystathionine gamma-lyase (CSE) expression in several germ-cell testicular tumors.Tissue ...

Role of 3-Mercaptopyruvate Sulfurtransferase (3-MST) in Physiology and Disease
3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3-MST) plays the important role of producing hydrogen sulfide. Conserved from bacteria to Mammalia, this enzyme is localized in mitochondria as well as the cytoplasm. 3-MST mediates the reaction of 3-mercaptopyruvate

The Role of Hydrogen Sulfide in Plaque Stability
Atherosclerosis is the greatest contributor to cardiovascular events and is involved in the majority of deaths worldwide. Plaque rapture or erosion precipitates life-threatening thrombi, resulting in the obstruction blood flow to the heart (acute ...

Cystathionine gamma-lyase deficiency and overproliferation of smooth muscle cells [PDF]
Cystathionine gamma-lyase (CSE)-derived H2S plays an important role in regulating cell growth. Lack of CSE expression results in development of hypertension. The current study compared proliferation of smooth muscle cells derived from CSE gene knockout mice (SMCs-KO) with that of wild-type mice (SMCs-WT).Cell proliferation was assessed by ...

Cystathionine γ-lyase: Clinical, metabolic, genetic, and structural studies [PDF]
We report studies of six individuals with marked elevations of cystathionine in plasma and/or urine. Studies of CTH, the gene that encodes cystathionine gamma-lyase, revealed the presence among these individuals of either homozygous or compound heterozygous forms of a novel large deletion, p.Gly57_Gln196del, two novel missense mutations, c.589C>T (p ...
