First Time

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), an endogenous gaseous mediator, produces both vasorelaxation and vasoconstriction at different concentrations. We found in the present study that NaHS, an H2S donor, produced stronger vasorelaxant and weaker vasoconstrictive effects in HEPES solution compared with those achieved in Krebs solution. We further screened the buffer components and found that bicarbonate (HCO3−) was the ion to influence the effect of H2S. After examining the vasorelaxant effects of acetylcholine, a vasodilator by releasing nitric oxide, and isoprenaline, a β-adrenoceptor agonist, in HEPES and Krebs buffers, we found the HCO3−-dependent effect was specific to H2S. Blockade of anion exchanger-2 activity with 4,4′-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2′-disulfonic acid (DIDS) or with HCO3−-free solution abolished the vasoconstrictive effect of NaHS. Moreover, NaHS decreased nitric oxide level in the rat aorta in HCO3−-containing buffer, but this effect was abolished by HCO3−-free buffer or DIDS. In summary, we found for the first time that H2S stimulates anion exchanger to transport extracellular HCO3− in exchange for intracellular superoxide anions, which may further inactivate nitric oxide and induces vasoconstriction.

The Moment

Introduction: Polytrauma patients have high risk of shock, septic complications and death during few years of follow-up. In recent years a lot of attention is paid to gaseous transmitters, among which are nitrogen oxide (NO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S). It is known that the rise of NO and its metabolites levels occurs during the acute period of polytrauma. Nitric oxide and hydrogen sulfide are produced in different cell types, among which are lymphocytes. The aim: To investigate the levels of NO, NOS, iNOS, еNOS, H2S in lymphocytes lysate in patients at the moment of hospitalization and 24 hours after trauma. Materials and methods: We investigated the levels of NO, NO-synthase, inducible NO-synthase, endothelial NO-synthase, H2S in lymphocytes lysate in patients at the moment of hospitalization and 24 hours after trauma. Results: The study included 20 patients with polytrauma who were treated in the intensive care unit (ICU) of the Lviv Emergency Hospital. Tissue injury was associated with an increased production of NO, NOS, iNOS, еNOS during the acute period of polytrauma. At the same time, the level of H2S decreased by the end of the first day of traumatic injury. Conclusions: In acute period of polytrauma, significant increasing of iNOS and eNOS occurs with percentage prevalence of iNOS over eNOS on the background of H2S decreasing.

: There is considerable evidence in the heart that autophagy in cardiomyocytes is activated by hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) or in hearts by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Depending upon the experimental model and duration of ischemia, increases in autophagy in this setting maybe beneficial (cardioprotective) or deleterious (exacerbate I/R injury). Aside from the conundrum as to whether or not autophagy is an adaptive process, it is clearly regulated by a number of diverse molecules including reactive oxygen species (ROS), various kinases, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and nitric oxide (NO). The purpose this review is to address briefly the controversy regarding the role of autophagy in this setting and to examine a variety of disparate molecules that are involved in its regulation.

Background & Objective: Hydrogen sulfide [H2S] has been widely known as a toxic gas for more than 300 years in the scientific community. However, the understanding about this small molecule has changed after the discovery of involvement of H2S in physiological and pathological mechanisms in brain. H2S is a third gasotransmitter and neuromodulator after carbon monoxide [CO] and nitric oxide [NO]. H2S plays an important role in memory and cognition by regulating long-term potentiation [LTP] and calcium homeostasis in neuronal cells. The disturbances in endogenous H2S levels and trans-sulfuration pathway have been implicated in neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson disease, stroke and traumatic brain injury. According to the results obtained from various studies, H2S not only behaves as neuromodulator but also is a potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic molecule suggesting its neuroprotective potential. Conclusion: Recently, there is an increased interest in developing H2S releasing pharmaceuticals to target various neurological disorders. This review covers the information about the involvement of H2S in neurodegenerative diseases, its molecular targets and its role as potential therapeutic molecule.
