Periodic evolution of H(2)S during aerobic chemostat culture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae resulted in ultradian metabolic oscillation via periodic inhibition of respiratory activity. To understand the nature of periodic H(2)S evolution, we investigated whether oxidative stress is associated with H(2)S production. The cellular oxidative states represented by intracellular level of lipid peroxides oscillated out of phase with the oscillation of dissolved O(2). Pulse addition of antioxidant, oxidative agent or inhibitor of antioxidation enzymes perturbed metabolic oscillation producing changes in H(2)S evolution. Analysis of H(2)S production profiles during perturbation of oscillation revealed that the amount of H(2)S production is closely linked with cellular oxidative states. Based on these results and our previous reports, we suggest that oxidative stresses result in periodic depletion of glutathione and cysteine, which in turn causes stimulation of the sulfate assimilation pathway and H(2)S production.

A nuclear-localized cysteine desulfhydrase, LCD1, plays a crucial role in mediating endogenous hydrogen sulfide production in tomatoes. However, the mechanism underlying the nuclear localization of SlLCD1 is not yet fully understood. In this study, it was found that SlLCD1 specifically interacted with nuclear import receptor importin α3 (SlIMPA3).

Hydrogen sulfide (HS) is an metabolic product of tuna during the spoilage, and relationship between HS and tuna quality has not been specifically studied. This study detected changes in HS content, HS precursor substances, and related enzymes based on the formation pathway of HS. HS content increased of tuna resulted in significant increases in contents of cystathionine β-synthase, cystathionine γ-lyase, 3-mercapto pyruvate sulfotransferase, cysteine aminotransferase and methionine, while content of cysteine decreased which provided HS formation.

The kitchen waste and garden waste (KW-GW) co-composting system provides an effective method for recycling these two types of municipal solid waste; however, further improvements are needed to enhance bioconversion performance. This study investigates a novel composting additive, calcium polypeptides (CPPs), derived from waste animal and plant proteins, which can enhance the bioconversion capacity of biomass in the KW-GW co-composting system. As a pH regulator and an available nitrogen source, CPPs significantly increase the compost matrix pH, prolong the thermophilic phase, and reduce emissions of exhaust gases such as CH, NO, NH, and HS by 52.

Background: Nephrotic syndrome has a significant impact on global health, often leading to cardiovascular disease and high mortality due to limited effective treatments. This study investigates the efficacy of Shensu IV in a puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN)-induced rat model of nephropathy.
Methods: Rat models and podocyte PAN nephropathy models were established with PAN and treated with Shensu IV.

Hydrogen sulfide (HS) is an environmental hazard well known for its neurotoxicity. In mammalian cells, HS is predominantly generated by transsulfuration pathway enzymes. In addition, HS produced by gut microbiome significantly contributes to the total sulfide burden in the body.
