Authors Szabo C Submitted By Csaba Szabo on 3/7/2013 Status Published Journal Antioxidants & redox signaling Year 2012 Date Published 7/1/2012 Volume : Pages 17 : 68 - 80 PubMed Reference 22149162 Abstract Diabetes and its complications represent a major socioeconomic problem. RECENT ADVANCES: Changes in the balance of hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) play an important role in the pathogenesis of ß-cell dysfunction that occurs in response to type 1 and type 2 diabetes. In addition, changes in H(2)S homeostasis also play a role in the pathogenesis of endothelial injury, which develop on the basis of chronically or intermittently elevated circulating glucose levels in diabetes.
