Redox-responsive hydropersulfide prodrugs are designed to enable a more controllable and efficient (RSSH) supply thoroughly explore their biological therapeutic applications in oxidative damage. To obtain novel activation patterns triggered by redox signaling, we focused on NAD(P)H: quinone acceptor oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1), canonical antioxidant enzyme, NQO1-activated RSSH prodrugs. We also performed head-to-head comparison of two mainstream structural scaffolds with solid quantitative analysis prodrugs, RSSH, metabolic by-products LC-MS/MS, confirming that the perthiocarbamate scaffold was effective intracellular prodrug uptake production. The highly potent stress management against cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. Strikingly, this possessed potential feedback properties which delivered can further escalate via NQO1 upregulation. Our strategy pushed one step pursuit release matrices improved druggability stress.

Supersulfides, which are defined as sulfur species with catenated atoms, increasingly being investigated in biology. We recently identified pyridoxal phosphate (PLP)-dependent biosynthesis of cysteine persulfide (CysSSH) and related supersulfides by cysteinyl-tRNA synthetase (CARS). Here, we the physiological role CysSSH budding yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) generating a PLP-binding site mutation K109A CRS1 (the ortholog CARS), decreased synthesis also led to reduced chronological aging, effects that were associated an increased endoplasmic reticulum stress response impaired mitochondrial bioenergetics. Reduced aging mutant could be rescued using exogenous supersulfide donors. Our findings indicate important roles for CARS production metabolism supersulfides—to mediate function regulate longevity.

The oxidative modification of specific cysteine residues to persulfides is thought be the main way by which hydrogen sulfide (H2S) exerts its biological and signaling functions. Therefore, protein persulfidation represents an important thiol-switching mechanism as other reversible redox post-translational modifications. Considering their reductase activity but also connections with proteins that generate H2S related molecules, glutaredoxin (GRX) thioredoxin (TRX)-reducing systems have potential dual roles in both depersulfidation. In this review, we will first focus on recent advances describing physiological pathways leading before discussing TRX glutathione/GRX-reducing persulfidation/depersulfidation.

Acute inflammatory responses often involve the production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species by innate immune cells, particularly macrophages. How activated macrophages protect themselves in face oxidative-inflammatory stress remains a long-standing question. Recent evidence implicates sulfur (RSS) responses; however, how endogenous RSS affect macrophage function response to oxidative insults poorly understood. In this study, we investigated pathways biogenesis clearance macrophages, with particular focus on exploring hydrogen sulfide (H2S)-mediated S-persulfidation influences stress.
