Abstract

The recent discovery that hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) is an endogenously produced gaseous second messenger capable of modulating many physiological processes, much like nitric oxide, prompted us to investigate the potential of H 2 S as a cardioprotective agent. In the current study, we demonstrate that the delivery of H 2 S at the time of reperfusion limits infarct size and preserves left ventricular (LV) function in an in vivo model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI-R). This observed cytoprotection is associated with an inhibition of myocardial inflammation and a preservation of both mitochondrial structure and function after I-R injury. Additionally, we show that modulation of endogenously produced H 2 S by cardiac-specific overexpression of cystathionine γ-lyase (α-MHC-CGL-Tg mouse) significantly limits the extent of injury. These findings demonstrate that H 2 S may be of value in cytoprotection during the evolution of myocardial infarction and that either administration of H 2 S or the modulation of endogenous production may be of clinical benefit in ischemic disorders.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
