Abstract Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been known as a critical signaling molecule that regulates many physiological and/or pathological processes. With the multiple biological actions of H2S, there is growing interest in developing various H2S-releasing compounds for precise delivery of the gas to target tissues. Recently, the connection between drug and H2S-delivery components has led to a considerable variety of H2S donors with potential therapeutic effects against diseases. In our group, hydrogen sulfide (H2S)-releasing dithiolethione (ADT) functionalized with biologically active peptides are being investigated for their integrated anti-inflammatory and antioxidant potential. Herein, we report the synthesis of a series of H2S-releasing compound peptide hybrids and their initial biological effects.
