Thiosulfate sulfurtransferase prevents hyperglycemic damage to the zebrafish pronephros in an experimental model for diabetes

Scientific Reports, 2022
Thiosulfate sulfurtransferase (TST, EC 2.8.1.1), also known as Rhodanese, was initially discovered as a cyanide detoxification enzyme. However, it was recently also found to be a genetic predictor of resistance to obesity-related type 2 diabetes ...

Experts' Opinion on Decontamination and Antidote Strategies: Complementing Contemporary Expert Consensus and Evidence to Optimize Preparedness and Response to CBRN Threats in the Middle East and North Africa

Journal of Contingencies and Crisis Management, Volume 34, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) incidents present escalating challenges, particularly in geopolitically unstable regions such as the Middle East and North Africa. Despite advances, gaps exist regarding optimal decontamination protocols and agent‐specific antidote selection algorithms, exacerbated by variable operational ...

Supersulfide biology and translational medicine for disease control

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 1, Page 115-130, January 2026.
Abstract For decades, the major focus of redox biology has been oxygen, the most abundant element on Earth. Molecular oxygen functions as the final electron acceptor in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, contributing to energy production in aerobic organisms. In addition, oxygen‐derived reactive oxygen species including hydrogen peroxide and nitrogen

Sorghum Poisoning in Livestock: Mechanisms, Risks, and Sustainable Mitigation Strategies

International Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) is a drought‐tolerant crop grown in both arid and semiarid regions and serves as both food and fodder. Under environmental stresses, sorghum accumulates cyanogenic glucosides, especially dhurrin. Through ingestion, dhurrin is hydrolyzed into a toxic element called hydrogen cyanide (HCN).

Solution Structures and Backbone Dynamics of Escherichia coli Rhodanese PspE in Its Sulfur-Free and Persulfide-Intermediate Forms: Implications for the Catalytic Mechanism of Rhodanese^,

, 2016
Rhodanese catalyzes the sulfur-transfer reaction that transfers sulfur from thiosulfate to cyanide by a double-displacement mechanism, in which an active cysteine residue plays a central role.

SERS‐AI‐LUA‐Driven Salivary Diagnosis of Head and Neck Cancer Using Graphene‐Assisted Plasmonic Nanocorals

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 48, December 29, 2025.
The developed graphene‐assisted plasmonic nanocoral platform enables sensitive, label‐free surface‐enhanced Raman scattering analysis of salivary metabolites for head and neck cancer (HNC) detection. When combined with machine learning classification and nonnegative least squares‐based spectral deconvolution, this approach achieves 98% diagnostic ...

Production of rhodanese by bacteria present in bio-oxidation plants used to recover gold from arsenopyrite concentrates

, 2000
Considerably larger quantities of cyanide are required to solubilize gold following the bio-oxidation of gold-bearing ores compared with oxidation by physical-chemical processes.

Bioleaching Microbial Community Metabolism and Composition Driven by Copper Sulphide Mineral Type

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
Bioleaching is a microbially mediated green technology for the recovery of metals from ore. Here, microbial consortia from a copper bioleaching column in Cyprus were cultivated on chalcopyrite (CuFeS2) and then sub‐cultured on chalcocite (Cu2S) and chalcopyrite to investigate how mineral type and surface chemistry influence microbial community ...
