Article Abstract
Initially known for its deleterious health effects, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has recently been recognized as a biologically important gas carrier, like nitric oxide and carbon monoxide. H2S is produced endogenously in mammalian cells by enzymatic and non-enzymatic pathways. When it is produced by the enzymatic pathway, its synthesis is carried out from the amino acid L-cysteine through the transsulfuration pathway. It can also be produced endogenously from exogenous compounds that function as H2S donors as, for example, the naturally occurring organic donors found in some plants. Currently, the role of S2H is well known as brain and cardiac protector, and its research as a therapeutic adjuvant in metabolic diseases such as obesity and type-2 diabetes is becoming increasingly important. The objective of this review is to examine how the contribution of donors and precursors of hydrogen sulfide by the diet impacts health and disease.
Cold stress is an environmental factor that seriously restricts the growth, production and survival of plants, and has received extensive attention in recent years. Hydrogen sulfide (HS) is an ubiquitous gas signaling molecule, and its role in alleviating plant cold stress has become a research focus in recent years. This paper reviews for the first time the significant effect of HS on improving plant cold resistance, which makes up for the gaps in the existing literature.
Hydrogen sulfide (HS), carbonyl sulfide (COS), and dimethyl sulfide (DMS) are the primary sulfur compounds found in seawater, which cause pitting corrosion on the oxide passivation film of titanium, known as "the marine metals". In this study, density functional theory (DFT) was used to analyze the adsorption and surface electronic properties of these three small molecules on the anatase TiO(101) surface. The analysis was conducted through adsorption energy, work function, Mulliken charge population, and density of states (DOS).

Employing metallic nanoclusters as cocatalysts for semiconductor-based photocatalysts and understanding their roles in enhancing photocatalytic performance is crucial. Herein, a nickel thiolate with cyclohexanethiol as the ligands (i.e.
We investigated the effectiveness of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) covers in reducing landfill emissions of hydrogen sulphide (HS), ammonia (NH), and inhalable particulate matter smaller than 10 μm in diameter (PM) at the Waste Management Centre Marišćina (Croatia) by comparing air quality data from 2018, prior to the installation of the HDPE cover, with data from 2021, post-installation. The results demonstrate a significant reduction in HS and PM concentrations (36.76 % and 24.
As a gas molecule, hydrogen sulfide (HS) exerts neuroprotective effects. Despite its recognized importance, there remains a need for a deeper understanding of HS's impact on vascular smooth muscle cells and its role in ischemic brain injury. This study employs encompassing cultured primary cerebral vascular smooth muscle cells, oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation model, in vitro vascular tone assessments, in vivo middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion experimentation in male rats, and the utilization of ROCK knockout, to unravel the intricate relationship between H2S and cerebrovascular diastolic function.
