Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a neuropeptide with diverse physiological
functions. Its two isoforms (α and β) are widely expressed throughout the body in sensory …

Boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) belongs to a family of organoboron compounds,
commercialized as fluorescent dyes by Invitrogen™. As BODIPY derivatives, Aza-boron …

Supersulphides are inorganic and organic sulphides with sulphur catenation with diverse
physiological functions. Their synthesis is mainly mediated by mitochondrial cysteinyl-tRNA …

Over the last two decades, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has emerged as an endogenous
regulator of a broad range of physiological functions. H2S belongs to the class of molecules …

Signaling by H2S is proposed to occur via persulfidation, a posttranslational modification of
cysteine residues (RSH) to persulfides (RSSH). Persulfidation provides a framework for …

Abstract Significance: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been recognized as the third gaseous
transmitter alongside nitric oxide and carbon monoxide. In the past decade, numerous …

The transient receptor potential ankyrin (TRPA) channels are Ca 2+-permeable nonselective
cation channels remarkably conserved through the animal kingdom. Mammals have only …

Hydrogen sulfide can signal through 3 distinct mechanisms: 1) reduction and/or direct
binding of metalloprotein heme centers, 2) serving as a potent antioxidant through reactive …

Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are a superfamily of non-selective cation
channels that act as polymodal sensors in many tissues throughout mammalian organisms …

The history of H 2 S–as an environmental toxin–dates back to 1700, to the observations of
the Italian physician Bernardino Ramazzini, whose book “De Morbis Artificum Diatriba” …
