Abstract
Significance: Routine exposure to xenobiotics is unavoidable during our lifetimes. Certain xenobiotics are hazardous to human health, and are metabolized in the body to render them less toxic. During this process, several detoxification enzymes cooperatively metabolize xenobiotics. Glutathione (GSH) conjugation plays an important role in the metabolism of electrophilic xenobiotics. Recent Advances: Recent advances in reactive sulfur and supersulfide (RSS) analyses showed that persulfides and polysulfides bound to low-molecular-weight thiols, such as GSH, and to protein thiols are abundant in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. The highly nucleophilic nature of hydropersulfides and hydropolysulfides contributes to cell protection against oxidative stress and electrophilic stress. Critical Issues: In contrast to GSH conjugation to electrophiles that is aided by glutathione S-transferase (GST), persulfides and polysulfides can directly form conjugates with electrophiles without the catalytic actions of GST. The polysulfur bonds in the conjugates are further reduced by perthioanions and polythioanions derived from RSS to form sulfhydrated metabolites that are no longer electrophilic but rather nucleophilic, and differ from metabolites that are formed via GSH conjugation. Future Directions: In view of the abundance of RSS in cells and tissues, metabolism of xenobiotics that is mediated by RSS warrants additional investigations, such as studies of the impact of microbiota-derived RSS on xenobiotic metabolism. Metabolites formed from reactions between electrophiles and RSS may be potential biomarkers for monitoring exposure to electrophiles and for studying their metabolism by RSS. Antioxid.

Abstract
Rewiring the transsulfuration pathway is recognized as a rapid adaptive metabolic response to environmental conditions in cancer cells to support their increased cysteine demand and to produce Reactive Sulfur Species (RSS) including hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and cysteine persulfide. This can directly (via RSS) or indirectly (by supplying Cys) trigger chemical or enzyme catalyzed persulfidation on critical protein cysteine residues to protect them from oxidative damage and to orchestrate protein functions, and thereby contribute to cancer cell plasticity. In this review key aspects of persulfide-mediated biological processes are highlighted and critically discussed in relation to cancer cell survival, bioenergetics, proliferation as well as in tumor angiogenesis, adaptation to hypoxia and oxidative stress, and regulation of epithelial to mesenchymal transition.

Abstract
Antioxidant defenses in biological systems ensure redox homeostasis, regulating baseline levels of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS). Oxidative stress (OS), characterized by a lack of antioxidant defenses or an elevation in ROS and RNS, may cause a modification of biomolecules, ROS being primarily absorbed by proteins. As a result of both genome and environment interactions, proteomics provides complete information about a cell's proteome, which changes continuously. Besides measuring protein expression levels, proteomics can also be used to identify protein modifications, localizations, the effects of added agents, and the interactions between proteins. Several oxidative processes are frequently used to modify proteins post-translationally, including carbonylation, oxidation of amino acid side chains, glycation, or lipid peroxidation, which produces highly reactive alkenals. Reactive alkenals, such as 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, are added to cysteine (Cys), lysine (Lys), or histidine (His) residues by a Michael addition, and tyrosine (Tyr) residues are nitrated and Cys residues are nitrosylated by a Michael addition. Oxidative and nitrosative stress have been implicated in many neurodegenerative diseases as a result of oxidative damage to the brain, which may be especially vulnerable due to the large consumption of dioxygen. Therefore, the current methods applied for the detection, identification, and quantification in redox proteomics are of great interest. This review describes the main protein modifications classified as chemical reactions. Finally, we discuss the importance of redox proteomics to health and describe the analytical methods used in redox proteomics.

Abstract
Various organosulfur compounds, such as dimethyl trisulfide (DMTS), display anti-inflammatory properties. We aimed to examine the effects of DMTS on acute pancreatitis (AP) and its mechanism of action in both in vivo and in vitro studies. AP was induced in FVB/n mice or Wistar rats by caerulein, ethanol-palmitoleic acid, or L-ornithine-HCl. DMTS treatments were administered subcutaneously. AP severity was assessed by pancreatic histological scoring, pancreatic water content, and myeloperoxidase activity measurements. The behaviour of animals was followed. Pancreatic heat shock protein 72 (HSP72) expression, sulfide, and protein persulfidation were measured. In vitro acinar viability, intracellular Ca2+ concentration, and reactive oxygen species production were determined. DMTS dose-dependently decreased the severity of AP. It declined the pancreatic infiltration of leukocytes and cellular damage in mice. DMTS upregulated the HSP72 expression during AP and elevated serum sulfide and low molecular weight persulfide levels. DMTS exhibited cytoprotection against hydrogen peroxide and AP-inducing agents. It has antioxidant properties and modulates physiological but not pathophysiological Ca2+ signalling. Generally, DMTS ameliorated AP severity and protected pancreatic acinar cells. Our findings indicate that DMTS is a sulfur donor with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, and organosulfur compounds require further investigation into this potentially lethal disease.

Abstract
Per- and polysulfides are sulfane sulfur species produced inside living cells, in organisms as diverse as bacteria, plants and humans, but their biological roles remain to be fully understood. Unfortunately, due to their reactivity, per- and polysulfides are easily altered, interconverted or lost during the processing and analysis of biological material. Thus, all current analytical methods make use of alkylating agents, to quench reactivity of hydropersulfides and hydropolysulfides and also to prevent free thiols from attacking sulfur chains in hydropolysulfides and dialkyl polysulfides. However, recent findings reveal that alkylating agents can also destroy per- and polysulfides, to varying degrees, depending on the choice of alkylating agent. Here, we discuss the challenges associated with the alkylation of per- and polysulfides, the single most important step for their preservation and detection in biological samples.

Hydrogen Sulfide-Releasing Indomethacin-Derivative (ATB-344) Prevents the Development of Oxidative Gastric Mucosal Injuries. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:1545. [PMID: 37627540 PMCID: PMC10452022 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12081545] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2023] [Revised: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 07/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) emerged recently as an anti-oxidative signaling molecule that contributes to gastrointestinal (GI) mucosal defense and repair. Indomethacin belongs to the class of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and is used as an effective intervention in the treatment of gout- or osteoarthritis-related inflammation. However, its clinical use is strongly limited since indomethacin inhibits gastric mucosal prostaglandin (PG) biosynthesis, predisposing to or even inducing ulcerogenesis. The H2S moiety was shown to decrease the GI toxicity of some NSAIDs. However, the GI safety and anti-oxidative effect of a novel H2S-releasing indomethacin derivative (ATB-344) remain unexplored. Thus, we aimed here to compare the impact of ATB-344 and classic indomethacin on gastric mucosal integrity and their ability to counteract the development of oxidative gastric mucosal injuries. Wistar rats were pretreated intragastrically (i.g.) with vehicle, ATB-344 (7-28 mg/kg i.g.), or indomethacin (5-20 mg/kg i.g.). Next, animals were exposed to microsurgical gastric ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). Gastric damage was assessed micro- and macroscopically. The volatile H2S level was assessed in the gastric mucosa using the modified methylene blue method. Serum and gastric mucosal PGE2 and 8-hydroxyguanozine (8-OHG) concentrations were evaluated by ELISA. Molecular alterations for gastric mucosal barrier-specific targets such as cyclooxygenase-1 (COX)-1, COX-2, heme oxygenase-1 (HMOX)-1, HMOX-2, superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD)-1, SOD-2, hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-1α, xanthine oxidase (XDH), suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3), CCAAT enhancer binding protein (C/EBP), annexin A1 (ANXA1), interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β), interleukin 1 receptor type I (IL-1R1), interleukin 1 receptor type II (IL-1R2), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), tumor necrosis factor receptor 2 (TNFR2), or H2S-producing enzymes, cystathionine γ-lyase (CTH), cystathionine β-synthase (CBS), or 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfur transferase (MPST), were assessed at the mRNA level by real-time PCR. ATB-344 (7 mg/kg i.g.) reduced the area of gastric I/R injuries in contrast to an equimolar dose of indomethacin. ATB-344 increased gastric H2S production, did not affect gastric mucosal PGE2 content, prevented RNA oxidation, and maintained or enhanced the expression of oxidation-sensitive HMOX-1 and SOD-2 in line with decreased IL-1β and XDH. We conclude that due to the H2S-releasing ability, i.g., treatment with ATB-344 not only exerts dose-dependent GI safety but even enhances gastric mucosal barrier capacity to counteract acute oxidative injury development when applied at a low dose of 7 mg/kg, in contrast to classic indomethacin. ATB-344 (7 mg/kg) inhibited COX activity on a systemic level but did not affect cytoprotective PGE2 content in the gastric mucosa and, as a result, evoked gastroprotection against oxidative damage.

Abstract
Redox post-translational modifications on cysteine thiols (redox PTMs) have profound effects on protein structure and function, thus enabling regulation of various biological processes. Redox proteomics approaches aim to characterize the landscape of redox PTMs at the systems level. These approaches facilitate studies of condition-specific, dynamic processes implicating redox PTMs and have furthered our understanding of redox signaling and regulation. Mass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful tool for such analyses which has been demonstrated by significant advances in redox proteomics during the last decade. A group of well-established approaches involves the initial blocking of free thiols followed by selective reduction of oxidized PTMs and subsequent enrichment for downstream detection. Alternatively, novel chemoselective probe-based approaches have been developed for various redox PTMs. Direct detection of redox PTMs without any enrichment has also been demonstrated given the sensitivity of contemporary MS instruments. This review discusses the general principles behind different analytical strategies and covers recent advances in redox proteomics. Several applications of redox proteomics are also highlighted to illustrate how large-scale redox proteomics data can lead to novel biological insights.

Hydrogen sulfide as an anti-calcification stratagem in human aortic valve: Altered biogenesis and mitochondrial metabolism of H 2S lead to H 2S deficiency in calcific aortic valve disease. Redox Biol 2023; 60:102629.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) was previously revealed to inhibit osteoblastic differentiation of valvular interstitial cells (VICs), a pathological feature in calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD). This study aimed to explore the metabolic control of H2S levels in human aortic valves. Lower levels of bioavailable H2S and higher levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected in aortic valves of CAVD patients compared to healthy individuals, accompanied by higher expression of cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE) and same expression of cystathionine β-synthase (CBS). Increased biogenesis of H2S by CSE was found in the aortic valves of CAVD patients which is supported by increased production of lanthionine. In accordance, healthy human aortic VICs mimic human pathology under calcifying conditions, as elevated CSE expression is associated with low levels of H2S. The expression of mitochondrial enzymes involved in H2S catabolism including sulfide quinone oxidoreductase (SQR), the key enzyme in mitochondrial H2S oxidation, persulfide dioxygenase (ETHE1), sulfite oxidase (SO) and thiosulfate sulfurtransferase (TST) were up-regulated in calcific aortic valve tissues, and a similar expression pattern was observed in response to high phosphate levels in VICs. AP39, a mitochondria-targeting H2S donor, rescued VICs from an osteoblastic phenotype switch and reduced the expression of IL-1β and TNF-α in VICs. Both pro-inflammatory cytokines aggravated calcification and osteoblastic differentiation of VICs derived from the calcific aortic valves. In contrast, IL-1β and TNF-α provided an early and transient inhibition of VICs calcification and osteoblastic differentiation in healthy cells and that effect was lost as H2S levels decreased. The benefit was mediated via CSE induction and H2S generation. We conclude that decreased levels of bioavailable H2S in human calcific aortic valves result from an increased H2S metabolism that facilitates the development of CAVD. CSE/H2S represent a pathway that reverses the action of calcifying stimuli.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has emerged as a gaseous signalling molecule with crucial implications for cardiovascular health. H2S is involved in many biological functions, including interactions with nitric oxide, activation of molecular signalling cascades, post-translational modifications and redox regulation. Various preclinical and clinical studies have shown that H2S and its synthesizing enzymes - cystathionine γ-lyase, cystathionine β-synthase and 3-mercaptosulfotransferase - can protect against cardiovascular pathologies, including arrhythmias, atherosclerosis, heart failure, myocardial infarction and ischaemia-reperfusion injury. The bioavailability of H2S and its metabolites, such as hydropersulfides and polysulfides, is substantially reduced in cardiovascular disease and has been associated with single-nucleotide polymorphisms in H2S synthesis enzymes. In this Review, we highlight the role of H2S, its synthesizing enzymes and metabolites, their roles in the cardiovascular system, and their involvement in cardiovascular disease and associated pathologies. We also discuss the latest clinical findings from the field and outline areas for future study.

Abstract
Reactive sulfur species (RSS) entail a diverse family of sulfur derivatives that have emerged as important effector molecules in H2S-mediated biological events. RSS (including H2S) can exert their biological roles via widespread interactions with metalloproteins. Metalloproteins are essential components along the metabolic route of oxygen in the body, from the transport and storage of O2, through cellular respiration, to the maintenance of redox homeostasis by elimination of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Moreover, heme peroxidases contribute to immune defense by killing pathogens using oxygen-derived H2O2 as a precursor for stronger oxidants. Coordination and redox reactions with metal centers are primary means of RSS to alter fundamental cellular functions. In addition to RSS-mediated metalloprotein functions, the reduction of high-valent metal centers by RSS results in radical formation and opens the way for subsequent per- and polysulfide formation, which may have implications in cellular protection against oxidative stress and in redox signaling. Furthermore, recent findings pointed out the potential role of RSS as substrates for mitochondrial energy production and their cytoprotective capacity, with the involvement of metalloproteins. The current review summarizes the interactions of RSS with protein metal centers and their biological implications with special emphasis on mechanistic aspects, sulfide-mediated signaling, and pathophysiological consequences. A deeper understanding of the biological actions of reactive sulfur species on a molecular level is primordial in H2S-related drug development and the advancement of redox medicine.

Abstract
The temporal and spatial patterns of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells and tissues decisively determine the plant acclimation response to diverse abiotic and biotic stresses. Recent progress in developing dynamic cell imaging probes provides kinetic information on changes in parameters like H2O2, glutathione (GSH/GSSG) and NAD(P)H/NAD(P)+, that play a crucial role in tuning the cellular redox state. Central to redox-based regulation is the thiol-redox regulatory network of the cell that integrates reductive information from metabolism and oxidative ROS signals. Sensitive proteomics allow for monitoring changes in redox-related posttranslational modifications. Thiol peroxidases act as sensitive peroxide and redox sensors and play a central role in this signal transduction process. Peroxiredoxins (PRX) and glutathione peroxidases (GPX) are the two main thiol peroxidases and their function in ROS sensing and redox signaling in plants is emerging at present and summarized in this review. Depending on their redox state, PRXs and GPXs act as redox-dependent binding partners, direct oxidants of target proteins and oxidants of thiol redox transmitters that in turn oxidize target proteins. With their versatile functions, the multiple isoforms of plant thiol peroxidases play a central role in plant stress acclimation, e.g. to high light or osmotic stress, but also in ROS-mediated immunity and development.

Abstract
Regulation of H2S homeostasis in humans is poorly understood. Therefore, we assessed the importance of individual enzymes in synthesis and catabolism of H2S by studying patients with respective genetic defects. We analyzed sulfur compounds (including bioavailable sulfide) in 37 untreated or insufficiently treated patients with seven ultrarare enzyme deficiencies and compared them to 63 controls. Surprisingly, we observed that patients with severe deficiency in cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) or cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE) - the enzymes primarily responsible for H2S synthesis - exhibited increased and normal levels of bioavailable sulfide, respectively. However, an approximately 21-fold increase of urinary homolanthionine in CBS deficiency strongly suggests that lacking CBS activity is compensated for by an increase in CSE-dependent H2S synthesis from accumulating homocysteine, which suggests a control of H2S homeostasis in vivo. In deficiency of sulfide:quinone oxidoreductase - the first enzyme in mitochondrial H2S oxidation - we found normal H2S concentrations in a symptomatic patient and his asymptomatic sibling, and elevated levels in an asymptomatic sibling, challenging the requirement for this enzyme in catabolizing H2S under physiological conditions. Patients with ethylmalonic encephalopathy and sulfite oxidase/molybdenum cofactor deficiencies exhibited massive accumulation of thiosulfate and sulfite with formation of large amounts of S-sulfocysteine and S-sulfohomocysteine, increased renal losses of sulfur compounds and concomitant strong reduction in plasma total cysteine. Our results demonstrate the value of a comprehensive assessment of sulfur compounds in severe disorders of homocysteine/cysteine metabolism and provide evidence for redundancy and compensatory mechanisms in the maintenance of H2S homeostasis. Cystathionine γ-lyase can compensate for decreased H2S synthesis in cystathionine β-synthase deficiency. Sulfide:quinone oxidoreductase deficiency is compatible with normal H2S plasma levels under non-stressed conditions. Persulfide dioxygenase deficiency (ethylmalonic encephalopathy) causes the largest accumulation of H2S among disorders of sulfur metabolism. Excess sulfite forms S-sulfocysteine and S-sulfohomocysteine, and interferes with vitamin B6 metabolism. S-sulfocysteine correlates directly with sulfite and is a stable biomarker of sulfite accumulation.

Optimization of a Method for Detecting Intracellular Sulfane Sulfur Levels and Evaluation of Reagents That Affect the Levels in Escherichia coli. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11071292.

Abstract
Sulfane sulfur is a class of compounds containing zero-valent sulfur. Most sulfane sulfur compounds are reactive and play important signaling roles. Key enzymes involved in the production and metabolism of sulfane sulfur have been characterized; however, little is known about how to change intracellular sulfane sulfur (iSS) levels. To accurately measure iSS, we optimized a previously reported method, in which reactive iSS reacts with sulfite to produce thiosulfate, a stable sulfane sulfur compound, before detection. With the improved method, several factors were tested to influence iSS in Escherichia coli. Temperature, pH, and osmotic pressure showed little effect. At commonly used concentrations, most tested oxidants, including hydrogen peroxide, tert-butyl hydroperoxide, hypochlorous acid, and diamide, did not affect iSS, but carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone increased iSS. For reductants, 10 mM dithiothreitol significantly decreased iSS, but tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine did not. Among different sulfur-bearing compounds, NaHS, cysteine, S2O32− and diallyl disulfide increased iSS, of which only S2O32− did not inhibit E. coli growth at 10 mM or less. Thus, with the improved method, we have identified reagents that may be used to change iSS in E. coli and other organisms, providing tools to further study the physiological functions of iSS.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenous signaling molecule which is important for cardiovascular health, but its mechanism of action remains poorly understood. Here, we report measurements of H2S as well as its oxidized metabolites, termed small oxoacids of sulfur (SOS = HSOH and HOSOH), in four human primary vascular cell lines: smooth muscle and endothelial cells derived from both human arterial and coronary tissues. We use a methodology that targets small molecular weight sulfur species; mass spectrometric analysis allows for species quantification to report cellular concentrations based on an H2S calibration curve. The production of H2S and SOS is orders of magnitude higher in smooth muscle (nanomolar) as compared to endothelial cell lines (picomolar). In all the primary lines measured, the distributions of these three species were HOSOH >H2S > HSOH, with much higher SOS than seen previously in non-vascular cell lines. H2S and SOS were effluxed from smooth muscle cells in higher concentrations than endothelial cells. Aortic smooth muscle cells were used to examine changes under hypoxic growth conditions. Hypoxia caused notable increases in HSOH and ROS, which we attribute to enhanced sulfide quinone oxidase activity that results in reverse electron transport.

Abstract
Basal-like breast cancer (BLBC) is the most aggressive subtype of breast tumors with poor prognosis and limited molecular-targeted therapy options. We show that BLBC cells have a high Cys demand and reprogrammed Cys metabolism. Patient-derived BLBC tumors from four different cohorts exhibited elevated expression of the transsulfuration enzyme cystathione β-synthetase (CBS). CBS silencing (shCBS) made BLBC cells less invasive, proliferate slower, more vulnerable to oxidative stress and cystine (CySSCy) deprivation, prone to ferroptosis, and less responsive to HIF1-α activation under hypoxia. shCBS xenograft tumors grew slower than controls and exhibited impaired angiogenesis and larger necrotic areas. Sulfur metabolite profiling suggested that realigned sulfide/persulfide-inducing functions of CBS are important in BLBC tumor progression. Supporting this, the exclusion of serine, a substrate of CBS for producing Cys but not for producing sulfide/persulfide, did not exacerbate CySSCy deprivation-induced ferroptosis in shCBS BLBC cells. Impaired Tyr phosphorylation was detected in shCBS cells and xenografts, likely due to persulfidation-inhibited phosphatase functions. Overexpression of cystathione γ-lyase (CSE), which can also contribute to cellular sulfide/persulfide production, compensated for the loss of CBS activities, and treatment of shCBS xenografts with a CSE inhibitor further blocked tumor growth. Glutathione and protein-Cys levels were not diminished in shCBS cells or xenografts, but levels of Cys persulfidation and the persulfide-catabolizing enzyme ETHE1 were suppressed. Finally, expression of enzymes of the oxidizing Cys catabolism pathway was diminished, but expression of the persulfide-producing CARS2 was elevated in human BLBC tumors. Hence, the persulfide-producing pathways are major targetable determinants of BLBC pathology that could be therapeutically exploited.

Abstract
This report characterizes and quantifies endogenous hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and small oxoacids of sulfur (SOS = HOSH, HOSOH) in a panel of cell lines including human cancer (A375 melanoma cells, HeLa cervical cells) and noncancer (HEK293 embryonic kidney cells), as well as E. coli DH5α and S. cerevisiae S288C. The methodology used is a translation of well-studied nucleophilic and electrophilic traps for cysteine and oxidized cysteines residues to target small molecular weight sulfur species; mass spectrometric analysis allows for species quantification. The observed intracellular concentrations of H2S and SOS vary in different cell types, from nanomolar to femtomolar, typically with H2S > HOSOH > HOSH. We propose the term sulfome, a subset of the metabolome, describing the nonproteinaceous metabolites of H2S; the sulfomic index is as a measure of the S-oxide redox status, which gives a profile of endogenous sulfur at different oxidation states. An important observation is that H2S and SOS were found to be continuously extruded into surrounding media against a concentration gradient, implying an active efflux process. Small molecule inhibition of several H2S generating enzymes suggest that SOS are not derived solely from H2S oxidation. Even after successful inhibition of H2S production, cells maintain constant efflux and repopulate H2S and SOS over time. This work proves that these small sulfur oxoacids are generated in cells of all types, and their efflux implies that they play a role in cell signaling and possibly other vascular physiology attributed to H2S.

Abstract
Recent research demonstrates a reciprocal relationship between gut microbiota-derived metabolites and the host in controlling the energy homeostasis in mammals. On the one hand, to thrive, gut bacteria exploit nutrients digested by the host. On the other hand, the host utilizes numerous products of gut bacteria metabolism as a substrate for ATP production in the colon. Finally, bacterial metabolites seep from the gut into the bloodstream and interfere with the host’s cellular bioenergetics machinery. Notably, there is an association between alterations in microbiota composition and the development of metabolic diseases and their cardiovascular complications. Some metabolites, like short-chain fatty acids and trimethylamine, are considered markers of cardiometabolic health. Others, like hydrogen sulfide and nitrite, demonstrate antihypertensive properties. Scientific databases were searched for pre-clinical and clinical studies to summarize current knowledge on the role of gut microbiota metabolites in the regulation of mammalian bioenergetics and discuss their potential involvement in the development of cardiometabolic disorders. Overall, the available data demonstrates that gut bacteria products affect physiological and pathological processes controlling energy and vascular homeostasis. Thus, the modulation of microbiota-derived metabolites may represent a new approach for treating obesity, hypertension and type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a key redox signaling molecule that selectively oxidizes cysteines on proteins. It can accomplish this even in the presence of highly efficient and abundant H2O2 scavengers, peroxiredoxins (Prdxs), as it is the Prdxs themselves that transfer oxidative equivalents to specific protein thiols on target proteins via their redox-relay functionality. The first evidence of a mammalian cytosolic Prdx-mediated redox-relay—Prdx1 with the kinase ASK1—was presented a decade ago based on the outcome of a co-immunoprecipitation experiment. A second such redox-relay—Prdx2:STAT3—soon followed, for which further studies provided insights into its specificity, organization, and mechanism. The Prdx1:ASK1 redox-relay, however, has never undergone such a characterization. Here, we combine cellular and in vitro protein–protein interaction methods to investigate the Prdx1:ASK1 interaction more thoroughly. We show that, contrary to the Prdx2:STAT3 redox-relay, Prdx1 interacts with ASK1 at elevated H2O2 concentrations, and that this interaction can happen independently of a scaffolding protein. We also provide evidence of a Prdx2:ASK1 interaction, and demonstrate that it requires a facilitator that, however, is not annexin A2. Our results reveal that cytosolic Prdx redox-relays can be organized in different ways and yet again highlight the differentiated roles of Prdx1 and Prdx2.

Abstract
The recent report by Fan et al alleged that the ProPerDP method is inadequate for the detection of protein persulfidation. Upon careful evaluation of their work, we conclude that the claim made by Fan et al is not supported by their data, rather founded in methodological shortcomings. It is understood that the ProPerDP method generates a mixture of cysteine-containing and non-cysteine-containing peptides. Instead, Fan et al suggested that the detection of non-cysteine-containing peptides indicates nonspecific alkylation at noncysteine residues. However, if true, then such peptides would not be released by reduction and therefore not appear as products in the reported workflow. Moreover, the authors' biological assessment of ProPerDP using Escherichia coli mutants was based on assumptions that have not been confirmed by other methods. We conclude that Fan et al did not rigorously assess the method and that ProPerDP remains a reliable approach for analyses of protein per/polysulfidation.
