Redox Medicine 2023 Best Poster Presentation Award

Redox Meidicine 2023 Best Poster Presentation Award

Talal Salti, Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, Israel

"Induction of Hydrogen Sulfide Production and Protein Persulfidation in Activated Human and Mouse Macrophages"

Dr. Salti stated: "Many studies suggest that H₂S can regulate inflammatory signaling in macrophages, but little is understood mechanistically as to how such regulation is achieved. H₂S affects different cellular processes through protein persulfidation, which can enhance/inhibit or otherwise modulate protein activity and also preserve protein function during oxidative stress. In this project, we are investigating the roles of H₂S and thiol persulfidation in the macrophage inflammatory response".

Dr. Salti communicated the following future steps with RMS team:

1. To characterize H₂S metabolism and function during macrophage activation.  
2. To reveal molecular mechanisms through which the mitochondrial H₂S oxidation pathway regulates inflammatory signaling in macrophages.
3. To identify and characterize macrophage proteins regulated by thiol persulfidation.
