Hydrogen Sulfide Contributes to Retinal Neovascularization in Ischemia-Induced Retinopathy
7 Jun 2016
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenous gaseous signaling molecule with significant pathophysiological importance, but its role in retinal neovascular diseases is unknown. Hydrogen sulfide is generated from L-cysteine by cystathionine-β-synthase (CBS), cystathionine-γ-lyase (CSE), and/or 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3-MST). The aim of this study was to investigate the role of H2S in retinal...
