Abstract
Nitroxyl (HNO), a one-electron reduced and protonated congener of nitric oxide (•NO), was recently discovered in Arabidopsis thaliana. Due to its distinct chemical properties, we believe HNO must be further studied to determine how many physiological processes it impacts.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the most common complications of diabetes, and diabetic cardiomyopathy is a major cause of people death in diabetes. Molecular, transcriptional, animal, and clinical studies have discovered numerous therapeutic targets or drugs for diabetic cardiomyopathy. Within this, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), an endogenous gasotransmitter alongside with nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO), is found to play a critical role in diabetic cardiomyopathy. Recently, the protective roles of H2S in diabetic cardiomyopathy have attracted enormous attention. In addition, H2S donors confer favorable effects in myocardial infarction, ischaemia-reperfusion injury, and heart failure under diabetic conditions. Further studies have disclosed that multiplex molecular mechanisms are responsible for the protective effects of H2S against diabetes-elicited cardiac injury, such as anti-oxidative, anti-apoptotic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-necrotic properties. In this review, we will summarize the current findings on H2S biology and pharmacology, especially focusing on the novel mechanisms of H2S-based protection against diabetic cardiomyopathy. Also, the potential roles of H2S in diabetes-aggravated ischaemia-reperfusion injury are discussed.

Abstract
Aims: Delphinidin (DEL) is a plant-derived antioxidant with clinical potential to treat inflammatory pain but suffers from poor solubility and low bioavailability. The aim of the study was to develop a well-tolerated cyclodextrin (CD)-DEL complex with enhanced bioavailability and to investigate the mechanisms behind its antinociceptive effects in a preclinical model of inflammatory pain. Results: CD-DEL was highly soluble and stable in aqueous solution, and was nontoxic. Systemic administration of CD-DEL reversed mechanical and heat hyperalgesia, while its local application into the complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA)-induced inflamed paw dose-dependently reduced mechanical hyperalgesia, paw volume, formation of the lipid peroxidation product 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE), and tissue migration of CD68+ macrophages. CD-DEL also directly prevented 4-HNE-induced mechanical hyperalgesia, cold allodynia, and an increase in the intracellular calcium concentration into transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 expressing cells. Both 4-HNE- and CFA-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were sensitive to CD-DEL, while its capacity to scavenge superoxide anion radicals (inhibitory concentration 50 [IC50]: 70 ± 5 μM) was higher than that observed for hydroxyl radicals (IC50: 600 ± 50 μM). Finally, CD-DEL upregulated heme oxygenase 1 that was prevented by HMOX-1 siRNA in vitro. Innovation:In vivo application of DEL to treat inflammatory pain is facilitated by complexation with CD. Apart from its antioxidant effects, the CD-DEL has a unique second antioxidative mechanism involving capturing of 4-HNE into the CD cavity followed by displacement and release of the ROS scavenger DEL. Conclusion: CD-DEL has antinociceptive, antioxidative, and anti-inflammatory effects making it a promising formulation for the local treatment of inflammatory pain.

Abstract
Background Accumulated evidence has suggested that hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has a role in bone formation and bone tissue regeneration. However, it is unknown whether the H2S content is associated with bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with osteopenia/osteoporosis. Material/Methods In the present study, we aimed to explore the changes of serum H2S in osteopenia and osteoporosis patients. We analyzed femur expression of cystathionine β synthase (CBS), cystathionine γ lyase (CSE), and 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3-MST), which are key enzymes for generating H2S. Results Sixteen (16%) patients had osteopenia, 9 (9%) had osteoporosis, and 75 (75%) had normal BMD. In comparison with patients with normal BMD (controls), the serum levels of H2S were unexpectedly increased in patients with osteopenia and osteoporosis. This increase was much higher in patients with osteoporosis than in those with osteopenia. Serum H2S levels were negatively correlated with femoral BMD, but not lumbar BMD. Interestingly, the expression of CBS and CSE were downregulated in femur tissues in patients with osteoporosis, whereas the expression of 3-MST remained unchanged. Serum phosphorus levels, alkaline phosphatase, hemoglobin, and triglycerides were found to be closely associated with CBS and CSE scores in femur tissues. Conclusions Serum H2S levels and femur CBS and CSE expression may be involved in osteoporosis pathogenesis.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), nitric oxide (NO), carbon monoxide (CO), and sulfur dioxide (SO2) were previously considered as toxic gases, but now they are found to be members of mammalian gasotransmitters family. Both H2S and SO2 are endogenously produced in sulfur-containing amino acid metabolic pathway in vivo. The enzymes catalyzing the formation of H2S are mainly CBS, CSE, and 3-MST, and the key enzymes for SO2 production are AAT1 and AAT2. Endogenous NO is produced from L-arginine under catalysis of three isoforms of NOS (eNOS, iNOS, and nNOS). HO-mediated heme catabolism is the main source of endogenous CO. These four gasotransmitters play important physiological and pathophysiological roles in mammalian cardiovascular, nervous, gastrointestinal, respiratory, and immune systems. The similarity among these four gasotransmitters can be seen from the same and/or shared signals. With many studies on the biological effects of gasotransmitters on multiple systems, the interaction among H2S and other gasotransmitters has been gradually explored. H2S not only interacts with NO to form nitroxyl (HNO), but also regulates the HO/CO and AAT/SO2 pathways. Here, we review the biosynthesis and metabolism of the gasotransmitters in mammals, as well as the known complicated interactions among H2S and other gasotransmitters (NO, CO, and SO2) and their effects on various aspects of cardiovascular physiology and pathophysiology, such as vascular tension, angiogenesis, heart contractility, and cardiac protection.

Abstract
Azanone (HNO/NO-), also called nitroxyl, is a highly reactive compound whose biological role is still a matter of debate. A key issue that remains to be clarified regarding HNO and its biological activity is that of its endogenous formation. Given the overlap of the molecular targets and reactivity of nitric oxide (NO•) and HNO, its chemical biology was perceived to be similar to that of NO• as a biological signaling agent. However, despite their closely related reactivity, NO• and HNO's biochemical pathways are quite different. Moreover, the reduction of nitric oxide to azanone is possible but necessarily coupled to other reactions, which drive the reaction forward, overcoming the unfavorable thermodynamic barrier. The mechanism of this NO•/HNO interplay and its downstream effects in different contexts were studied recently, showing that more than fifteen moderate reducing agents react with NO• producing HNO. Particularly, it is known that the reaction between nitric oxide and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) produces HNO. However, this rate constant was not reported yet. In this work, firstly the NO•/H2S effective rate constant was measured as a function of the pH. Then, the implications of these chemical (non-enzymatic), biologically compatible, routes to endogenous HNO formation was discussed. There is no doubt that HNO could be (is?) a new endogenously produced messenger that mediates specific physiological responses, many of which were attributed yet to direct NO• effects.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) and nitroxyl (HNO) have gained broad attention due to their roles in several physiological and pathophysiological processes. Remarkably, these sibling species can exhibit opposing effects including the promotion of angiogenic activity by NO compared to HNO, which blocks neovascularization. While many NO donors have been developed over the years, interest in HNO has led to the recent emergence of new donors. However, in both cases there is an expressive lack of iron-based compounds. Herein, we explored the novel chemical reactivity and stability of the trans-[Fe(cyclam)(NO)Cl]Cl2 (cyclam = 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) complex. Interestingly, the half-life (t1/2) for NO release was 1.8 min upon light irradiation, vs 5.4 h upon thermal activation at 37 °C. Importantly, spectroscopic evidence supported the generation of HNO rather than NO induced by glutathione. Moreover, we observed significant inhibition of NO donor- or hypoxia-induced HIF-1α (hypoxia-inducible factor 1α) accumulation in breast cancer cells, as well as reduced vascular tube formation by endothelial cells pretreated with the trans-[Fe(cyclam)(NO)Cl]Cl2 complex. Together, these studies provide the first example of an iron-nitrosyl complex with anti-angiogenic activity as well as the potential dual activity of this compound as a NO/HNO releasing agent, which warrants further pharmacological investigation.

Induction of caveolin-3/eNOS complex by nitroxyl (HNO) ameliorates diabetic cardiomyopathy. Redox Biol 2020; 32:101493.

Abstract
Nitroxyl (HNO), one-electron reduced and protonated sibling of nitric oxide (NO), is a potential regulator of cardiovascular functions. It produces positive inotropic, lusitropic, myocardial anti-hypertrophic and vasodilator properties. Despite of these favorable actions, the significance and the possible mechanisms of HNO in diabetic hearts have yet to be fully elucidated. H9c2 cells or primary neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes were incubated with normal glucose (NG) or high glucose (HG). Male C57BL/6 mice received intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ) to induce diabetes. Here, we demonstrated that the baseline fluorescence signals of HNO in H9c2 cells were reinforced by both HNO donor Angeli's salt (AS), and the mixture of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) donor sodium hydrogen sulfide (NaHS) and NO donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP), but decreased by HG. Pretreatment with AS significantly reduced HG-induced cell vitality injury, apoptosis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and hypertrophy in H9c2 cells. This effect was mediated by induction of caveolin-3 (Cav-3)/endothelial nitric oxide (NO) synthase (eNOS) complex. Disruption of Cav-3/eNOS by pharmacological manipulation or small interfering RNA (siRNA) abolished the protective effects of AS in HG-incubated H9c2 cells. In STZ-induced diabetic mice, administration of AS ameliorated the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy, as evidenced by improved cardiac function and reduced cardiac hypertrophy, apoptosis, oxidative stress and myocardial fibrosis without affecting hyperglycemia. This study shed light on how interaction of NO and H2S regulates cardiac pathology and provide new route to treat diabetic cardiomyopathy with HNO.
