Exogenous Hydrogen Sulfide Attenuates High Glucose-Induced Cardiotoxicity by Inhibiting NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation by Suppressing TLR4/NF-κB Pathway in H9c2 Cells

Background/Aims: This study aimed to investigate whether exogenous hydrogen sulfide (H2S) confered cardiac protection against high glucose (HG)-induced injury by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation via a specific TLR4/NF-κB pathway. Methods: H9c2 cardiac cells were exposed to 33 mM g...
