The Impact of Drugs on Hydrogen Sulfide Homeostasis in Mammals (2023)
Journal Article
Alsaeedi, A., Welham, S., Rose, P., & Zhu, Y. (2023). The Impact of Drugs on Hydrogen Sulfide Homeostasis in Mammals. Antioxidants, 12(4), Article 908. https://doi.org/10.3390/antiox12040908

Mammalian cells and tissues have the capacity to generate hydrogen sulfide gas (H2S) via catabolic routes involving cysteine metabolism. H2S acts on cell signaling cascades that are necessary in many biochemical and physiological roles important in t... Read More about The Impact of Drugs on Hydrogen Sulfide Homeostasis in Mammals.

Systematic review and meta-analysis of iodine nutrition in modern vegan and vegetarian diets (2023)
