Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) coordinates redox balance, carbon metabolism, and mitochondrial bioenergetics to suppress SARS-CoV-2 infection. by Ragini Agrawal, Virender Kumar Pal, Suhas K S, Gopika Jayan Menon, Inder Raj Singh, Nitish Malhotra, Naren C S, Kailash Ganesh, Raju S Rajmani, Aswin Sai Narain Seshasayee, Nagasuma Chandra, Manjunath B Joshi, Amit Singh

“…GYY4137 treatment reduced the expression of inflammatory cytokines and re-established the expression of Nrf2-dependent antioxidant genes in the lungs of SARS-CoV-2-infected mice. Notably, non-invasive measurement of respiratory functions using unrestrained whole-body plethysmography (uWBP) of SARS-CoV-2-infected mice showed improved pulmonary function variables, including pulmonary obstruction (Penh), end-expiratory pause (EEP), and relaxation time (RT) upon GYY4137 treatment. …”
