| Abstract | The cardioprotective property of hydrogen sulfide (H$_{2}$S) is recently reported. However, cellular signaling cascades mediated by H$_{2}$S are largely unclear. This study was undertaken to explore the molecular mechanism of H$_{2}$S-induced cardioprotection in mouse heart by utilizing in vivo model of cardiac injury. We report here that intraperitoneal administration of sodium hydrogen sulfide (NaHS, 50 μmol kg$^{−1 }$day$^{−1}$ for 2 days), a H$_{2}$S donor, significantly (P ≤ 0.05) increased nitric oxide levels in serum as well as myocardium without any sign of myocardial injury. Typical characteristics of myocardial injury induced by isoproterenol (ISO) administration was significantly (P ≤ 0.05) abrogated by NaHS administration as evidenced from reduction in elevated thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and normalization of glutathione (GSH), glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase activity. Further, decrease in TNF-α expression and improvement in myocardial architecture was also observed. However, co-administration of N-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester, a nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor, and Celecoxib, a selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor along with NaHS and ISO abrogated the beneficial effect of H$_{2}$S differentially. Inhibition of NOS significantly (P ≤ 0.05) increased serum creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase activity and myocardial TBARS, along with significant (P ≤ 0.05) reduction of myocardial GSH, SOD, and catalase. This was followed by increase in TNF-α expression and histopathological changes. Our results revealed that H$_{2}$S provides myocardial protection through interaction with NOS and COX-2 pathway and inhibition of NOS completely abrogates the hydrogen sulfide-induced cardioprotection in mice. |

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.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
