Hydrogen Sulfide Lowers Proliferation and Induces Protective Autophagy in Colon Epithelial Cells

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a gaseous bacterial metabolite that reaches high levels in the large intestine. In the present study, the effect of H2S on the proliferation of normal and cancerous colon epithelial cells was investigated. An immortalized colon epithelial cell line (YAMC) and a panel of col...
