Abstract

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been recognized as an important gasotransmitter exerting various physiological effects, especially in the cardiovascular system. Herein we investigated the cardioprotective effects of a novel long-term and slow-releasing H2S donor, DATS-MSN, using in vivo myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) models and in vitro hypoxia/reoxygenation cardiomyocyte models. Unlike the instant-releasing pattern of sodium hydrosulphide (NaHS), the release of H2S from DATS-MSN was quite slow and continuous both in the cell culture medium and in rat plasma (elevated H2S concentrations during 24 h and 72 h reperfusion). Correspondingly, DATS-MSN demonstrated superior cardioprotective effects over NaHS in I/R models, which were associated with greater survival rates, reduced CK-MB and troponin I levels, decreased cardiomyocyte apoptosis index, increased antioxidant enzyme activities, inhibited myocardial inflammation, greater reduction in the infarct area and preserved cardiac ejection fraction. Some of these effects of DATS-MSN were also found to be superior to classic slow-releasing H2S donor, GYY4137. In in vitro experiments, cardiomyocytes injury was also found to be relived with the use of DATS-MSN compared to NaHS after the hypoxia/reoxygenation processes. The present work provides a novel long-term and slow-releasing H2S donor and an insight into how the release patterns of H2S donors affect its physiological functionality.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 17 June 2017.
All research outputs
#18,555,330
of 22,981,247 outputs
Outputs from Scientific Reports
#93,914
of 124,076 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#242,185
of 317,509 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Scientific Reports
#3,080
of 4,340 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,981,247 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 124,076 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 18.2. This one is in the 14th percentile – i.e., 14% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 317,509 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 4,340 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
