During acute myocardial infarction, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced autophagy and apoptosis have been shown as important pathogeneses of myocardial reconstruction. Importantly, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), as a third endogenous gas signaling molecule, exerts strong cytoprotective effect on anti-ER stress, autophagy regulation and antiapoptosis. Here, we showed that H2S treatment inhibits apoptosis by regulating ER stress-autophagy axis and improves myocardial reconstruction after acute myocardial infarction. We found that H2S intervention ...
