Abstract
The seminal studies by Kimura's group in the late 1990s [1, 2] ushered in a new era of biological signaling mediated by hydrogen sulfide (H2S). H2S has been described as the third “gasotransmitter” along with nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO; [3]). While none of these molecules actually signal as a gas, their hydrophilicity and lipophilicity enable them to readily traverse intracellular compartments where they serve in a variety of autocrine and paracrine signals capacities.
