Abstract:Arsenic (As) is a metal with potentially toxic effects on different organisms. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) plays a vital role in alleviating heavy metal toxicity through reducing oxidative stress in plants and animals. However, the function of H2S in alleviating arsenic toxicity in yeast cells remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the effects of NaHS (exogenous physiological H2S) on cell death and its possible mechanism in yeast cells induced by sodium arsenite. Our results showed that sodium arsenite cou… Show more
