Generation and Characterization of a CRISPR/Cas9—Induced 3-mst Deficient Zebrafish
3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3-MST) is an enzyme capable of synthesizing hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and polysulfides. In spite of its ubiquitous presence in mammalian cells, very few studies have investigated its contribution to homeostasis and ...

High protein diet reduced visceral adipose tissue through MTA‐TST‐Bak/Casp‐3 axis, suggesting that MTA has the potential to be developed as a functional substance for obesity prevention and control. ABSTRACT To explore the mechanism of a high‐protein diet (named high protein and rich fat diet, HPRFD) with weight loss effect regulating visceral fat ...

Gasotransmitters, poisons, and antimicrobials: it's a gas, gas, gas! [PDF]
We review recent examples of the burgeoning literature on three gases that have major impacts in biology and microbiology. NO, CO and H2S are now co-classified as endogenous gasotransmitters with profound effects on mammalian physiology and, potentially,

Abstract Clear cell ovarian cancer (CCOC) is the second most common ovarian cancer subtype, accounting for 5%–11% of ovarian cancers in North America. Late‐stage CCOC is associated with a worse prognosis compared to other ovarian cancer histotypes, a challenge that has seen limited progress in recent decades.

Role of Cystathionine Gamma-Lyase in Immediate Renal Impairment and Inflammatory Response in Acute Ischemic Kidney Injury [PDF]
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is known to act protectively during renal ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI). However, the role of the endogenous H2S in acute kidney injury (AKI) is largely unclear.

Cardiovascular phenotype of mice lacking 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a physiological mediator that regulates cardiovascular homeostasis. Three major enzymes contribute to the generation of endogenously produced H2S, namely cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE), cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) and 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3-MST).

Stroke is one of the major contributors to mortality and long‐term disability. Treatments aiming at regulating endogenous protective mechanisms to reduce neurological injury after ischemic stroke are still urgently needed. Herein, we investigated the neuroprotective potential of S‐propargyl‐cysteine (SPRC), a novel water‐soluble donor of H2S, and its ...

Distinct roles in autophagy and importance in infectivity of the two ATG4 cysteine peptidases of leishmania major [PDF]
Macroautophagy in Leishmania, which is important for the cellular remodeling required during differentiation, relies upon the hydrolytic activity of two ATG4 cysteine peptidases (ATG4.1 and ATG4.2).

Redirecting Intermediary Metabolism to Counteract Cyanide Poisoning
Cyanide is coined “the classic metabolic poison”; however, FDA‐approved cyanide chelators do not counteract cyanide's metabolic damage. Here, we review the mechanisms of cyanide toxicity, with a focus on intermediary metabolism. We present the theory that, within the innate plasticity of the metabolome, there may reside metabolic pathways that can ...
