Zhao Y, Wang Y, Xu Q, Zhou K, Shen Y, Guo L, Liu H, Ren Z, Jiang Z. Hydrogen sulfide donors across time: From origins to cutting-edge applications. Nitric Oxide 2024; 144:29-39. [PMID: 38307376 DOI: 10.1016/j.niox.2024.01.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2023] [Revised: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 02/04/2024]
Abstract
This review aims to analyze the developmental trajectory of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) donors over the past three decades and explore the historical background, research hotspots, and emerging trends in related fields from a temporal perspective. A total of 5092 literature articles on H2S donors were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC), encompassing 1303 journals, 20638 authors, 10992 institutions, and 459 countries and regions. Utilizing CiteSpace as a bibliometric tool, historical features, evolving active topics, and emerging trends in the field of H2S donors were identified. Over the past 30 years, the field of H2S donors has remained in a prominent stage. This article discusses both inorganic and organic types of H2S donors, including NaHS and Na2S, GYY4137, AP39, and AP123, as well as briefly outlines research and applications of H2S donors in nanotechnology, advanced materials, composite materials, nanostructures, and optical properties. Mechanistically, the review outlines how H2S donors regulate cellular signal transduction, anti-inflammatory responses, neuroprotection, and other pathways within the organism by modulating protein S-sulfhydration, antioxidant effects, and interactions with metal proteins. In terms of applications, the review summarizes the extensive use of H2S donors in biomedical research, encompassing cardiovascular, neurological, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer characteristics, as well as their potential applications in the treatment of metabolic diseases. Finally, challenges and limitations faced by H2S donor research are discussed, and potential future research directions are proposed.
