Recent efforts have expanded the development of small molecule donors that release the important biological signaling molecule hydrogen sulfide (H<sub>2</sub>S). Previous work on 1,2,4-thiadiazolidin-3,5-diones (TDZNs) reported that these compounds release H<sub>2</sub>S directly, albeit inefficiently. However, TDZNs showed promising efficacy in H<sub>2</sub>S-mediated relaxation in ex vivo aortic ring relaxation models. Here, we show that TDZNs release carbonyl sulfide (COS) efficiently, which ...[more]
