Colorimetric Carbonyl Sulfide (COS)/Hydrogen Sulfide (H2 S) Donation from ?-Ketothiocarbamate Donor Motifs.

ABSTRACT: Hydrogen sulfide (H2 S) is a biologically active molecule that exhibits protective effects in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. Although several H2 S-related biological effects have been discovered by using H2 S donors, knowing how much H2 S has been released from donors under different conditions remains challenging. Now, a series of ?-ketothiocarbamate (?-KetoTCM) compounds that provide the first examples of colorimetric H2 S donors and enable direct quantification of H2 S release, were reported. These compounds are activated through a pH-dependent deprotonation/?-elimination sequence to release carbonyl sulfide (COS), which is quickly converted into H2 S by carbonic anhydrase. The p-nitroaniline released upon donor activation provides an optical readout that correlates directly to COS/H2 S release, thus enabling colorimetric measurement of H2 S donation.

Kinetic Insights into Hydrogen Sulfide Delivery from Caged-Carbonyl Sulfide Isomeric Donor Platforms.

Project description:Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a biologically important small gaseous molecule that exhibits promising protective effects against a variety of physiological and pathological processes. To investigate the expanding roles of H2S in biology, researchers often use H2S donors to mimic enzymatic H2S synthesis or to provide increased H2S levels under specific circumstances. Aligned with the need for new broad and easily modifiable platforms for H2S donation, we report here the preparation and H2S release kinetics from a series of isomeric caged-carbonyl sulfide (COS) compounds, including thiocarbamates, thiocarbonates, and dithiocarbonates, all of which release COS that is quickly converted to H2S by the ubiquitous enzyme carbonic anhydrase. Each donor is designed to release COS/H2S after the activation of a trigger by activation by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). In addition to providing a broad palette of new, H2O2-responsive donor motifs, we also demonstrate the H2O2 dose-dependent COS/H2S release from each donor core, establish that release profiles can be modified by structural modifications, and compare COS/H2S release rates and efficiencies from isomeric core structures. Supporting our experimental investigations, we also provide computational insights into the potential energy surfaces for COS/H2S release from each platform. In addition, we also report initial investigations into dithiocarbamate cores, which release H2S directly upon H2O2-mediated activation. As a whole, the insights on COS/H2S release gained from these investigations provide a foundation for the expansion of the emerging area of responsive COS/H2S donor systems.

Progress toward colorimetric and fluorescent detection of carbonyl sulfide.

Project description:We report here that a fluorescent benzobisimidazolium salt (TBBI) can be used for the fluorescent and colorimetric detection of carbonyl sulfide (COS) over related heterocumulenes including CO2 and CS2 in wet MeCN. The reaction between TBBI and COS in the presence of fluoride yields a highly fluorescent (λem = 354 nm) and colored product (λmax = 321, 621 nm), that is readily observed by the naked eye. We view these results as a first step toward developing activity-based probes for COS detection.

Enumeration of Chemoorganotrophic Carbonyl Sulfide (COS)-degrading Microorganisms by the Most Probable Number Method.

Project description:Carbonyl sulfide (COS) is the most abundant sulfur compound in the atmosphere, and, thus, is important in the global sulfur cycle. Soil is a major sink of atmospheric COS and the numerical distribution of soil microorganisms that degrade COS is indispensable for estimating the COS-degrading potential of soil. However, difficulties are associated with counting COS-degrading microorganisms using culture-dependent approaches, such as the most probable number (MPN) method, because of the chemical hydrolysis of COS by water. We herein developed a two-step MPN method for COS-degrading microorganisms: the first step for chemoorganotrophic growth that supported a sufficient number of cells for COS degradation in the second step. Our new MPN analysis of various environmental samples revealed that the cell density of COS-degrading microorganisms in forest soils ranged between 106 and 108 MPN (g dry soil)-1, which was markedly higher than those in volcanic deposit and water samples, and strongly correlated with the rate of COS degradation in environmental samples. Numerically dominant COS degraders that were isolated from the MPN-positive culture were related to bacteria in the orders Bacillales and Actinomycetales. The present results provide numerical evidence for the ubiquity of COS-degrading microbes in natural environments.

Cyclic Sulfenyl Thiocarbamates Release Carbonyl Sulfide and Hydrogen Sulfide Independently in Thiol-Promoted Pathways.

Project description:Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an important signaling molecule that provides protective activities in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. Among the different types of H2S donor compounds, thioamides have attracted attention due to prior conjugation to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to access H2S-NSAID hybrids with significantly reduced toxicity, but the mechanism of H2S release from thioamides remains unclear. Herein, we reported the synthesis and evaluation of a class of thioamide-derived sulfenyl thiocarbamates (SulfenylTCMs) that function as a new class of H2S donors. These compounds are efficiently activated by cellular thiols to release carbonyl sulfide (COS), which is quickly converted to H2S by carbonic anhydrase (CA). In addition, through mechanistic investigations, we establish that COS-independent H2S release pathways are also operative. In contrast to the parent thioamide-based donors, the SulfenylTCMs exhibit excellent H2S releasing efficiencies of up to 90% and operate through mechanistically well-defined pathways. In addition, we demonstrate that the sulfenyl thiocarbamate group is readily attached to common NSAIDs, such as naproxen, to generate YZ-597 as an efficient H2S-NSAID hybrid, which we demonstrate releases H2S in cellular environments. Taken together, this new class of H2S donor motifs provides an important platform for new donor development.

A Visible Colorimetric Fluorescent Probe for Hydrogen Sulfide Detection in Wine.

Project description:A new efficient and practical fluorescent probe 6-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)naphthalen-2-yl-thiophene-2-carboxylate (probe 1) was synthesized to detect hydrogen sulfide (H2S). The addition of H2S caused the solution of probe 1 to change from colorless to yellow, and the solution of probe 1 changes to different colors with respect to different concentrations of H2S. Importantly, probe 1 could help detect H2S efficiently by a distinct color response as a visible detection agent. Probe 1 reacted with various concentrations of H2S (0-200??M), and the detection limit for H2S was 0.10??M. Particularly, probe 1 can be applied as a sensor to detect H2S accurately in wine samples.

Characterization of the Inducible and Slow-Releasing Hydrogen Sulfide and Persulfide Donor P*: Insights into Hydrogen Sulfide Signaling.

Project description:Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an important mediator of inflammatory processes. However, controversial findings also exist, and its underlying molecular mechanisms are largely unknown. Recently, the byproducts of H2S, per-/polysulfides, emerged as biological mediators themselves, highlighting the complex chemistry of H2S. In this study, we characterized the biological effects of P*, a slow-releasing H2S and persulfide donor. To differentiate between H2S and polysulfide-derived effects, we decomposed P* into polysulfides. P* was further compared to the commonly used fast-releasing H2S donor sodium hydrogen sulfide (NaHS). The effects on oxidative stress and interleukin-6 (IL-6) expression were assessed in ATDC5 cells using superoxide measurement, qPCR, ELISA, and Western blotting. The findings on IL-6 expression were corroborated in primary chondrocytes from osteoarthritis patients. In ATDC5 cells, P* not only induced the expression of the antioxidant enzyme heme oxygenase-1 via per-/polysulfides, but also induced activation of Akt and p38 MAPK. NaHS and P* significantly impaired menadione-induced superoxide production. P* reduced IL-6 levels in both ATDC5 cells and primary chondrocytes dependent on H2S release. Taken together, P* provides a valuable research tool for the investigation of H2S and per-/polysulfide signaling. These data demonstrate the importance of not only H2S, but also per-/polysulfides as bioactive signaling molecules with potent anti-inflammatory and, in particular, antioxidant properties.

Electrospun Scaffolds Functionalized with a Hydrogen Sulfide Donor Stimulate Angiogenesis.

Project description:Tissue-engineered constructs are currently limited by the lack of vascularization necessary for the survival and integration of implanted tissues. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), an endogenous signaling gas (gasotransmitter), has been recently reported as a promising alternative to growth factors to mediate and promote angiogenesis in low concentrations. Yet, sustained delivery of H2S remains a challenge. Herein, we have developed angiogenic scaffolds by covalent attachment of an H2S donor to a polycaprolactone (PCL) electrospun scaffold. These scaffolds were engineered to include azide functional groups (on 1, 5, or 10% of the PCL end groups) and were modified using a straightforward click reaction with an alkyne-functionalized N-thiocarboxyanhydride (alkynyl-NTA). This created H2S-releasing scaffolds that rely on NTA ring-opening in water followed by conversion of released carbonyl sulfide into H2S. These functionalized scaffolds showed dose-dependent release of H2S based on the amount of NTA functionality within the scaffold. The NTA-functionalized fibrous scaffolds supported human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) proliferation, formed more confluent endothelial monolayers, and facilitated the formation of tight cell-cell junctions to a greater extent than unfunctionalized scaffolds. Covalent conjugation of H2S donors to scaffolds not only promotes HUVEC proliferation in vitro, but also increases neovascularization in ovo, as observed in the chick chorioallantoic membrane assay. NTA-functionalized scaffolds provide localized control over vascularization through the sustained delivery of a powerful endogenous angiogenic agent, which should be further explored to promote angiogenesis in tissue engineering.

Development of selective colorimetric probes for hydrogen sulfide based on nucleophilic aromatic substitution.

Project description:Hydrogen sulfide is an important biological signaling molecule and an important environmental target for detection. A major challenge in developing H2S detection methods is separating the often similar reactivity of thiols and other nucleophiles from H2S. To address this need, the nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) reaction of H2S with electron-poor aromatic electrophiles was developed as a strategy to separate H2S and thiol reactivity. Treatment of aqueous solutions of nitrobenzofurazan (7-nitro-1,2,3-benzoxadiazole, NBD) thioethers with H2S resulted in thiol extrusion and formation of nitrobenzofurazan thiol (?max = 534 nm). This reactivity allows for unwanted thioether products to be converted to the desired nitrobenzofurazan thiol upon reaction with H2S. The scope of the reaction was investigated using a Hammett linear free energy relationship study, and the determined ? = +0.34 is consistent with the proposed SN2Ar reaction mechanism. The efficacy of the developed probes was demonstrated in buffer and in serum with associated submicromolar detection limits as low as 190 nM (buffer) and 380 nM (serum). Furthermore, the sigmoidal response of nitrobenzofurazan electrophiles with H2S can be fit to accurately quantify H2S. The developed detection strategy offers a manifold for H2S detection that we foresee being applied in various future applications.
