Dosing-Time Dependent Effects of Sodium Nitroprusside on Cerebral, Renal, and Hepatic Catalase Activity in Mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
To investigate the time dependence of sodium nitroprusside- (NPS-) induced oxidative effects, the authors study the variation of the antioxidant enzyme CAT activity in various tissues after the administration of a single 2.5mg/kg dose of SNP or sodium ...

Sulfanegen, a 3‐mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase substrate, as a therapeutic option for Alzheimer’s disease

open access: yesAlzheimer's & Dementia, 2023
The oxidative stress evident in the Alzheimer’s disease (AD) brain leads to compromised 3‐mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3MST) function, one of the endogenous hydrogen sulfide (H2S) producing enzymes.1,2 Impaired 3MST function is expected to ...

Mitochondrial Sulfide Detoxification Requires a Functional Isoform O-Acetylserine(thiol)lyase C in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In non-cyanogenic species, the main source of cyanide derives from ethylene and camalexin biosyntheses. In mitochondria, cyanide is a potent inhibitor of the cytochrome c oxidase and is metabolised by the β-Cyanoalanine synthase CYS-C1, catalysing the ...

Sulfane sulfur deficiency in malignant cells, increasing the inhibiting action of acetone cyanohydrin in tumor growth [PDF]

open access: yesActa Cirúrgica Brasileira, 2013
PURPOSE: To demonstrate the irreversible poisoning action of the acetone cyanohydrin (AC) in malignant cells. METHODS: Thirty male Swiss mice were inoculated with 1x10³ Ehrlich tumor (ET) cells. The mice were divided into three groups (n=10): CG (saline);

Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases (immunophilins) and their roles in parasite biochemistry, host-parasite interaction and antiparasitic drug action. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Immunophilin is the collective name given to the cyclophilin and FK506-binding protein (FKBP) families. As the name suggests, these include the major binding proteins of certain immunosuppressive drugs: cyclophilins for the cyclic peptide cyclosporin A ...

Implications of hydrogen sulfide in liver pathophysiology: Mechanistic insights and therapeutic potential

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research, 2021
Background: Over the last several decades, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been found to exert multiple physiological functions in mammal systems. The endogenous production of H2S is primarily mediated by cystathione β-synthase (CBS), cystathione γ-lyase (CSE)

In Vivo Anti-inflammatory Activity of Lipoic Acid Derivatives in Mice  [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: In mammals lipoic acid (LA) and its reduced form dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) function as cofactors for multienzymatic complexes catalyzing the decarboxylation of α-ketoacids.

3‐Mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase represses tumour progression and predicts prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma

open access: yesLiver international (Print), 2022
The prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains dismal, and its molecular pathogenesis has not been completely defined. The enzyme 3‐mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (MPST) regulates endogenous hydrogen sulfide (H2S) biosynthesis.
