Abstract:Macrophage pyroptosis mediates vascular inflammation and atherosclerosis (AS). Hydrogen sulfide (H

S) exerts a protective role in preventing inflammation and AS. However, its molecular mechanisms of regulating the pyroptosis signaling pathway and inhibiting macrophage pyroptosis remain unexplored. The present study aimed to determine whether H

S mitigates macrophage pyroptosis by downregulating the pyroptosis signaling pathway and S-sulfhydrating caspase-1 unde… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
