Vasoactivity of hydrogen sulfide in normoxic and anoxic turtles (Trachemys scripta).
Systemic vascular resistance (R(sys)) of freshwater turtles increases substantially during anoxia, but the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. We investigated whether hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S), an endogenously produced metabolite believed to be an O(2) sensor/transducer of vasomotor tone, contributes to the increased R(sys) of anoxic red-eared slider turtles (Trachemys scripta). Vasc...
متن کاملFormation of dimethyl sulfide and methanethiol in anoxic freshwater sediments.
Concentrations of volatile organic sulfur compounds (VOSC) were measured in water and sediment columns of ditches in a minerotrophic peatland in The Netherlands. VOSC, with methanethiol (4 to 40 nM) as the major compound, appeared to be mainly of sediment origin. Both VOSC and hydrogen sulfide concentrations decreased dramatically towards the water surface. High methanethiol and high dimethyl s...

A total of 3528 specimens of freshwater turtles belonging to two families viz., Geoemydidae (Brown River Turtle, Kachuga smithi; Indian Saw-backed turtle, K. tecta; Brahminy Rrive Turtle, Hardella thurgi; Spotted Pond Turtle, Geoclemys hamiltonii) and Trionychidae (Indian Soft-shell Turtle, Aspederates gangeticus; Peacock Soft-shell Turtle, A.hurum; Narrow-headed Soft-shell Turtle, Chitra indic...
متن کاملThe Source of Hydrogen Sulfide in Anoxic Sediment
-Putrefactive hydrogen sulfide production in the upper 4 cm of sediment in two small freshwater and eutrophic Southeast Michigan, U.S.A., lakes ranged from 0.13 to 1.51 with an average of 0.46 mg S l-~ day-~. Sulfate reductive production of hydrogen sulfide at the same sites ranged from 0.7 to 3.2 with an average of 1.54 mg S 1~ dayt. Putrefactive hydrogen sulfide production represented 5.1-53°...
متن کاملHydrogen Sulfide and Cellular Redox Homeostasis
Intracellular redox imbalance is mainly caused by overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) or weakness of the natural antioxidant defense system. It is involved in the pathophysiology of a wide array of human diseases. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is now recognized as the third "gasotransmitters" and proved to exert a wide range of physiological and cytoprotective functions in the biological s...
