Sulfane Sulfur in Toxicology: A Novel Defense System Against Electrophilic Stress
Toxicological Sciences, 2019 Electrophiles can undergo covalent modification of cellular proteins associated with its dysfunction, thereby exerting toxicity. Small nucleophilic molecules such as glutathione protect cells from electrophilic insult by binding covalently to electrophiles to form adducts that are excreted into the extracellular space.

Is Development of High-Grade Gliomas Sulfur-Dependent?
Molecules, 2014 We characterized γ-cystathionase, rhodanese and 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase activities in various regions of human brain (the cortex, thalamus, hypothalamus, hippocampus, cerebellum and subcortical nuclei) and human gliomas with II to IV grade ...

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

Intermediates in the Sox sulfur oxidation pathway are bound to a sulfane conjugate of the carrier protein SoxYZ. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The Sox pathway found in many sulfur bacteria oxidizes thiosulfate to sulfate. Pathway intermediates are covalently bound to a cysteine residue in the carrier protein SoxYZ.

3-Mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase: an enzyme at the crossroads of sulfane sulfur trafficking
Biological Chemistry, 2020 Abstract 3-Mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (MPST) catalyzes the desulfuration of 3-mercaptopyruvate to generate an enzyme-bound hydropersulfide. Subsequently, MPST transfers the persulfide’s outer sulfur atom to proteins or small molecule acceptors. MPST activity is known to be involved in hydrogen sulfide generation, tRNA thiolation,

Advanced Synthesis &Catalysis, Volume 367, Issue 22, November 28, 2025.A nickel catalyzed electrochemical cross‐electrophile coupling approach for the base‐free synthesis of (un)symmetric (hetero)aryl and alkyl sulfides from organic halides and disulfides is described. The reaction is broadly applicable and tolerates water and air atmosphere. A formal cross‐electrophile coupling approach enables the base‐free synthesis of

Journal of Food Science, Volume 90, Issue 10, October 2025.ABSTRACT Garlic quality is attributed to a diverse array of volatile and non‐volatile compounds, and several varieties are protected under geographical indication schemes, whereas many typical local cultivars remain chemically uncharacterized. Among them, white garlic from Piacenza (Italy) is a traditional product with recognized sensory attributes. In
