Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenously produced molecule with anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective properties. We aimed to investigate for the first time if a novel, esterase-sensitive H2S-prodrug, BW-HS-101 with the ability to release H2S in a controllable manner, prevents gastric mucosa against acetylsalicylic acid-induced gastropathy on microscopic and molecular levels. Wistar rats were pretreated intragastrically with vehicle, BW-HS-101 (0.5–50 μmol/kg) or its analogue without the ability to release H2S, BW-iHS-101 prior to ASA administration (125 mg/kg, intragastrically). BW-HS-101 was administered alone or in combination with nitroarginine (L-NNA, 20 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) or zinc protoporphyrin IX (10 mg/kg, intraperitoneally). Gastroprotective effects of BW-HS-101 were additionally evaluated against necrotic damage induced by intragastrical administration of 75% ethanol. Gastric mucosal damage was assessed microscopically, and gastric blood flow was determined by laser flowmetry. Gastric mucosal DNA oxidation and PGE2 concentration were assessed by ELISA. Serum and/or gastric protein concentrations of IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-13, VEGF, GM-CSF, IFN-γ, TNF-α, and EGF were determined by a microbeads/fluorescent-based multiplex assay. Changes in gastric mucosal iNOS, HMOX-1, SOCS3, IL1-R1, IL1-R2, TNF-R2, COX-1, and COX-2 mRNA were assessed by real-time PCR. BW-HS-101 or BW-iHS-101 applied at a dose of 50 μmol/kg protected gastric mucosa against ASA-induced gastric damage and prevented a decrease in the gastric blood flow level. H2S prodrug decreased DNA oxidation, systemic and gastric mucosal inflammation with accompanied upregulation of SOCS3, and EGF and HMOX-1 expression. Pharmacological inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) synthase but not carbon monoxide (CO)/heme oxygenase (HMOX) activity by L-NNA or ZnPP, respectively, reversed the gastroprotective effect of BW-HS-101. BW-HS-101 also protected against ethanol-induced gastric injury formation. We conclude that BW-HS-101, due to its ability to release H2S in a controllable manner, prevents gastric mucosa against drugs-induced gastropathy, inflammation and DNA oxidation, and upregulate gastric microcirculation. Gastroprotective effects of this H2S prodrug involves endogenous NO but not CO activity and could be mediated by cytoprotective and anti-inflammatory SOCS3 and EGF pathways.

Cerebral blood flow (CBF) responses to two types of isocapnic hypoxia, hypoxic hypoxia (HH) and carbon monoxide hypoxia (COH), were examined in seven unanesthetized adult sheep by the radiolabeled microsphere technique. Comparisons were made with newborn lambs (5–12 days old) previously studied under similar conditions. The arterial O2 content (Cao2) was reduced in a graded manner to 50–60% of the control value. During HH, CBF increased to maintain cerebral O2 delivery (Cao2 x CBF) in both adults and newborns; however, cerebral O2 uptake (CMRO2) did not change. Although CMRO2 was higher in newborns, the responses of CBF/CMRO2 to HH did not differ significantly in newborns and adults. In newborns, regional CBF showed that brainstem areas were particularly responsive to HH. In both age groups, CBF increased to a greater extent with COH than with HH for similar reductions in Cao2. This resulted in an increase in cerebral O2 delivery with COH. The degree to which COH differed from HH correlated with the magnitude of the leftward shift of the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve that accompanies COH. In adults, CMRO2 fell by 16% with COH but was maintained in newborns. We conclude that maintenance of cerebral O2 delivery during acute, isocapnic HH is a property of CBF regulation common to both newborn and adult sheep. During COH, the position of the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve is an additional factor that sets the level of O2 delivery. The fetal conditions of low Cao2 and a left-shifted oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve may have provided the newborn with a microcirculation better suited for maintaining CMRO2 during COH.

Abstract A set of well defined signaling molecules responsible for normal functioning of human physiology including nitric oxide along with carbon monoxide and hydrogen sulphide are referred as “gasotransmitters”. Due to their involvement in almost every system of a human body, the care of highly sensitive organs using these molecules as drugs represents highly fascinating area of research. In connection with these interesting aspects, the applied aspects of these gaseous molecules in maintaining healthy eye and vision have been targeted in this review. Several examples of eye-droppers including NORMs like latanoprost and nipradiol, CORMs like CORM-3 and CORM-A1, and Hydrogen sulfide releasing system like GYY4137 have been discussed in this context. Therefore the relation of these trio-gasotransmitters with the ophthalmic homeostasis on one hand, and de-infecting role on the other hand has been mainly highlighted. Some molecular systems capable of mimicking gasotransmitter action have also been introduced in connection with the titled theme.
