Hydrogen sulfide as a hybernation inducing agent

Or see here http://www.ted.com/talks/mark_roth_suspended_animation.html I think something about this should be added to the article or? 195.202.134.248 (talk) 18:32, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

No matter what, one can't live more than about 130 a. (I already made this a TOB (theorem of biology)) Even including hibernation using H
₂S. Alfa-ketosav (talk) 15:47, 26 April 2018 (UTC)

~93054 articles, patents, reports, etc on H2S as of April, 2018

@135.84.167.202:@William F. Wood:Thinking that you have a source that must be included in this very general article on H2S? Well get in line, because more than 93,000 other reports exist that could be mentioned according to Chemical Abstracts. But your article is rather recent? Well, 23,179 reports have appeared in the preceding 5 years alone (that is 12 papers/patents/reports per day). These data drive Wikipedia's guidance described in WP:SECONDARY and WP:TERTIARY. --Smokefoot (talk) 20:09, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

Supplementing biosynthesis in the body

Hi everyone!

I'm a chemistry major that has been assigned to edit this wikipedia page for the next few months. I'm looking to add on to the "biosynthesis in the body" section as well as create a new sub heading on hydrogen sulfide's significance in cellular signaling. Recent research has shown that hydrogen sulfide has an extremely wide range of physiological and pathological processes it coordinates such as anti-inflammation, anti-tumor as well as cardiovascular protection. I wanted to introduce a few sources that I plan to supplement the page with over time! Here you go please let me know what you think of these sources:

I came to this talk page to complain about the lack of detail in this article concerning the enzymes/processes that H
₂S interacts with. Specifically, the article has no information on which enzymes are responsible for the detoxification of H
₂S – hydrogen-sulfide S-acetyltransferase? sulfide:quinone reductase? sulfite oxidase? sulfur dioxygenase? – nor what it is detoxified into – thioacetate? – nor the specific enzyme(s) it affects to cause poisoning (just "mitochondrial cytochrome"). Also, it states that death is caused by CNS stimulation, but does not explain the mechanism by which H
₂S causes this stimulation. Nkopplin, if you want to improve the article I suggest starting there; Sulfur metabolism § Oxidation may be of use, although it is poorly referenced. As it stands, this article is a hodgepodge of random bits of information strewn across very poorly categorised sections. 121.217.97.142 (talk) 09:47, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

Nkopplin. Your sources listed above may be appropriate for a term paper review or journal article, but do not provide proof of concept expected for an encyclopedia. See WP:NOTJOURNAL, #6-8. The hydrogen sulfide literature is highly speculative about its biological role in vivo. Better to briefly discuss (supported by reviews) its synthesis, preliminary biochemistry, etc. The topic is years away from understanding what it may be doing in vivo, a discussion requiring WP:MEDRS reviews on human studies which are not available yet. --Zefr (talk) 16:44, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

Primary research, no results

This revert was justified because there is no concluded research to report in the article. We can report research when there is actual information to inform users that hydrogen sulfide has an effect which is reviewed and published in a medical journal per WP:MEDRS.
