Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Recently, RSS are polysulfer-containing compounds such as cysteine hydropersulfide and peptides/proteins harboring polysulfated cysteine residues.RSS provides superior antioxidation. Furthermore, RSS cause various bioactivity by modifying 8-nitro-cGMP which is one of the endogenous electrophile. As a result of this study, it was suggested that RSS was necessary for the extension of the mouse tibia. In addition, local existence of 8-nitro-cGMP with the mouse tibia growth plate cartilage and the tibial extension by 8-nitro-cGMP were accepted, too. It was suggested that RSS may become the new therapeutic drug for the cartilage disease.
