| Abstract | In the study, we investigated how exogenous H$_{2}$S (hydrogen sulfide) influenced streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic myocardial injury through cardiac mitochondrial protection and nitric oxide (NO) synthesis in intact rat hearts and primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. Diabetes was induced by STZ (50 mg/kg) and the daily administration of 100 μM NaHS (sodium hydrosulfide, an H$_{2}$S donor) in the diabetes + NaHS treatment group. At the end of 4, 8, and 12 weeks, the morphological alterations and functions of the hearts were observed using transmission electron microscopy and echocardiography system. The percentage of apoptotic cardiomyocytes, the mitochondrial membrane potential, the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the level of NO were measured. The expressions of cystathionine-γ-lyase (CSE), caspase-3 and -9, the mitochondrial NOX4 and cytochrome c were analyzed by western blotting. The results showed the cardiac function injured, morphological changes and the apoptotic rate increased in the diabetic rat hearts. In the primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes of high glucose group, ROS production was increased markedly, whereas the expression of CSE and the level of NO was decreased. However, treatment with NaHS significantly reversed the diabetic rat hearts function, the morphological changes and decreased the levels of ROS and NO in the primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes administrated with high glucose group. Furthermore, NaHS down-regulated the expression of mitochondrial NOX4 and caspase-3 and -9 and inhibited the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria in the primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. In conclusion, H$_{2}$S is involved in the attenuation of diabetic myocardial injury through the protection of cardiac mitochondria. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
