Generation of superoxide from reaction of 3H-1,2-dithiole-3-thione with thiols: implications for dithiolethione chemoprotection.

abstract：:Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in 30%-70% of critically ill patients. Multiple organ failure (MOF), which is most often secondary to hypotension and septicemia, is a global public health problem. The prognosis of patients is poor. Currently, there is no specific therapeutic method. Finding new therapeutic targets is...
