Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a naturally-occurring gasotransmitter with inflammatory and vasodilator modulating activity (1). Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as indomethacin, ibuprofen and diclofenac, are some of the most commonly used anti-inflammatory drugs available but exhibit significant side effects, particularly gastric damage, when used chronically. ATB-343 is a hybrid molecule of the NSAID indomethacinan and an H2S donor. In rats, ATB-343 does not cause gastric damage or promote leukocyte adherence to vascular endothelium, effects which are observed with only indomethacin treatment (2). These results indicate that H2S-releasing derivatives of NSAIDs may prove to be more effective anti-inflammatory agents than only traditional NSAIDs.
