Increased Urinary 3-Mercaptolactate Excretion and Enhanced Passive Systemic Anaphylaxis in Mice Lacking Mercaptopyruvate Sulfurtransferase, a Model of Mercaptolactate-Cysteine Disulfiduria

Mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (Mpst) and its homolog thiosulfate sulfurtransferase (Tst = rhodanese) detoxify cyanide to thiocyanate. Mpst is attracting attention as one of the four endogenous hydrogen sulfide (H<sub>2</sub>S)/reactive sulfur species (RSS)-producing enzymes, along w...
